Greetin's all ye wee green elves!

I do hope you're all getting your clothes and *red beards* ready for
Paddycon on the 15th. It's gonna be a fun one, rain or shine! (we're
thinking of meeting around 2:30pm, City Centre location to be
announced)

Hopefully you'll have your great-grandpa's Leprechaun outfit that he's
passed on to you and you're sorted. If not, perhaps you've already
put together one yourself. It can be great fun sewing, searching, and
combining. For those who are just loaded and want to buy a pre-made
outfit, here's a ridiculously expensive place that will be happy to
help you:

A full description of what our kind look like and the accessories we
wear can be found here:

And, for a bit of inspiration, ye can check out some images of our
kinfolk here:

Be seeing you at the end of the rainbow...

I know i got mine, and it's truly horrible - but it'll assuredly give me the anonymity i need to utterly debauchify the unsuspecting city centre....

If anyone DOESN'T feel like spending 215 euro on a costumes, you can get 30 euro costumes in carrolls oirish shop at o'connell bridge....


watch out normals!!!

I thought carrolls were charging 25 for their vision of synthetic
loveliness? If anyone needs to buy there, and they are out of stock,
you could also try a little shop down a side street just off South
William St, called ClownAround. They charge around the same 25 or 30,
and they maintain it's of a better quality (?!) than carrolls one.

Most important though, is the beard, don't forget the beards!!

Blessins of the Oirish to ye all now!

Bejaysus, glory be to god above, but I got away with it! Nobody
noticed that in that last mail, I signed off with me alter-ego name
of Freckles, rather than me real name of Fiddles!!

Alright now, everybody, be getting yerselves off to some shop or
other, or sit in front of yer sewing maachine, and buy, beg, borrow
or steal a dacent rig-out so as not to show us up badly in front of
all of our far flung relatives who will probably be around on de big
day. Ya know dere's always loads of dem UKkers and and some from da U
S of Aah and other places, and dem wid all dere fancy get-up. Well,
we'll show dem, right? Bejaysus, but we'll be de best-lookin bunch of
Leprechauns ever seen above ground, even if a bunch of us will be
lookin like we should really be under-ground, be de end of da night:-)

Faith and Begorrah

Fiddles (yes, Fiddles) McNugget

ps YES, Normals beware!!

Wednesday before? A little late, methinks. How 'bout TWO Wednesday's
before - March the 5th.

I vote for the Dragon Bar. An incredibly beautiful place at 64 South
Great George's Street. 8:00 okay?

hey...

Well, i'm happy enough to meet twice if it means the kind of advanced planning that will minimise arrests and hospitalisation on the day... ahahaha, no seriously folks, I'm not kidding...

Peace...
