We are going to have a special contest in celebration of St. Patrick?s Day. The contest will be a pilot for our monthly CD giveway that we will be starting in April. Here is how the St. Patrick?s Day contest will work. Simply post a message (new or reply) in our CelticRadio.net community forum on March 17, 2004 to qualify your entry into the contest. There will be a link on our main page that you can check to see if you have qualified. We will have more details in our first official monthly newsletter this weekend.

Prizes that we are giving away including a copy of Rise?s 'Uncertain Wonders' album, Heather Dale?s 'May Queen Album', Super Keltic's debut album and a Leprechaun charm necklace (from our new estore).

We will have our new ?Contest? section on our site by this weekend, so please check back for updates!

My daughter's birthday is April 4th. When's yours Maggie?

I'm glad it's not a coloring contest. I never could stay inside the lines.

Is it one qualifying entry per post? If it is, we might as well just hand the prizes to Annabelle and Richard. biggrin.gif Wonder if they'll share? unsure.gif

Everyone has an equal chance to win, as long as you make one post on CelticRadio.net (new or reply) you will be eligible for the contest. Posting more than 1 message does not increase your chance. It would be nice, but it is not going to work that way! biggrin.gif

Oh, anytime you want to come by and color just let me know. We have plenty of crayons, markers and paper!

Are the crayons and markers the little slim ones or the big fat ones biggrin.gif ?

So in other words, on the day after the Illinois primary election, following the Chicago tradition of "vote early, vote often" won't help, eh biggrin.gif ?

My oldest daughter's birthday is April 14th and Daughter no.2's birthday is April 16th. Eight years apart.

My granddaughter who is 4 likes to control the crayons. She gives me the crayons she wants me to color with. When she's not around I slip and color with the crayons I want to use. biggrin.gif

Subtract 20 from that 40 + 10. That's how old I'll be.

My MSNCAKE.GIF will be yellow cake with chocolate frosting. Yum!

I'm going out to dinner with family, then we'll come home and have the MSNCAKE.GIF and MSNGIFT.GIF .

I have a quick small spot up with the St. Patrick Day contest prizes on our playing page and community page if you want to see a "visual" of the CD's and charm. Should have the full mod up in a few days with abilities to check if you qualify for the contest, etc.

After St. Patrick's Day we will be giving away 2 albums of Heather Dales May Queen. This will be for April CD contest.

Mike! I already know how old or young you are! I checked your profile to see if you were as young as me! laugh.gif Not hardly! Oh well! My hubby's favorite cake is yellow cake with chocolate frosting too, isn't that weird? Well I like any cake as long as it has frosting on it! LOL

Paul! all sounds so wonderful! Hope me or Mike wins since it will be our birthday! I am not greedy, eh?

Mares Eat Oats & Does eat oats &
Little Lambs Eat Ivey
a Kid'll Eat Ivey Too
Wouldn't You???????

My beautiful old Irish grandmother used to sing this (Quote it) to me when I was a Kid. Her name was Ella King. I promptly went out and ate Ivey thinking this was what she was getting at when I complained about her baked potatoes, which sat in a woodstove all day in Northern New Brunswick.

Ah, to be able to go back there then. I wish.

St. Patrick's day always brings her to my mind and us going to church at St. Patricks in South Nelson, N.B. on the beautiful Mirimachi.

The programming code is all in place for the St. Patrick's Day contest. We have setup a contest page that will display your name if you are eligible. Note that you must post atleast one message on 3/17 to show up on this page.

http://www.celticradio.net/php/contest.php

This can be accessed from the contest section on our main page too. Future monthly contests will use this this module to determine contest eligibility.

Good luck to all!

The Prizes sounds cool too. cool.gif

We've been having a wonderful St. Patrick's Season here in Kansas City! It all started with a black tie dinner honoring Joe Cahill and Marie Moore for their efforts for a Re-united Ireland. We have begun our efforts for this summer when we bring children over from Ireland for our Children For Peace Program, and then just today, we've honored the very first Kansas City Policeman who was killed in the line of duty, Martin Hynes. He was shot at the White House Saloon, which was at the current sight of the busiest intersection in downtown KC, in 1881. We found some of his surviving family and brought them here to help us pay homage to Martin's duty. A plaque now honors him and finally tells his story. Then tomorrow, there will be a series of breakfasts and brunches followed by our St. Patrick's Day parade. I can't wait - we're the first group steppin off right after the Grand Marshall.

Have yourselves a fantastic day!

Happy Thanksgiving one and all. wink.gif I too will be in the KC parade tomorrow and if I had planned ahead all of my cooking would have been done and I'd be sleeping right now. But instead, I'm waiting on bread to finish baking.

Cheers

Well here's my St Paddy's post (and yet naother one to raise my slowly raising rank).

MDF, birthday on the 14th?! Cool. My soon to be 5 year old son, and my soon to be 4 year old daughter, are both born on the 14th! (Yep, 1 year apart...within the same hour!).

Happy St. Patrick's Day, y'all!

--Pneumandro

P.S. I want Heather Dale.....er..Heather Dale's album wink.gif

Feliz Dia a todos. Not really celebrating St. Patrick's day down here, but starting friday we will start celebrating the feast of San José in the little town I live in. We need more then one day to do it right though so the festival goes all through the weekend with lots of drinking, and eating and dances and cantadera and tamboritos and tunas and drinking, and parades (you ain't seen a parade until you see one down here), and drinking and dancing and then Sunday evening the queen will be crowned in a big ceremony.

Anyone wanna come by just drop me a line.

Leo cool.gif

By the way, in the course of all that I will raise a glass to you all and snort one for the old saint as well.

Posted by: CelticRose 17-Mar-2004, 12:17 PM
Happy St Patrick's Day to you all! I am wearing of the green today. Have a special T with shamrocks on it! Hope you all have a good and safe one.
