March 17th troubles
I don’t know about a Saints day –March 17th was more like April Fool’s Day, or Friday the 13th, with nothing but problems here. Any way how many saints do you suppose there are in the Christian firmament? The Patron saints Calendar lists 7 different Saints for March 17th so old St Patrick doesn’t have his birthday feast all to himself. Now, every one knows that St Patrick drove all the snakes from Ireland, is that not so? Answer, NO, according to my Jeeves informants; there never have been any snakes in Ireland, only metaphorical ones in the form of pagans or heretics, so much for myth and legend then.
Now printed pens don’t really belong on this page at all with St Patrick but I must do my bit here for the blog so I will tell you about another of our new printed pens just coming on line. We have for your delight and delectation the Harrier Extra Ball Pen. The picture in my catalogue shows a pen with Yahoo printed on it so what is good enough for a Yahoo (see Gulliver’s Travels) is good enough for us. This pen will shortly make its debut on the website at www.top-pen.co.uk
