St Patrick's Day is almost upon us, and we can practically taste the Guinness.

For the second year in a row St.Patrick's may look a little different this year but it’s definitely not going to stop the celebrations at home and through zoom calls.

The Met Office are predicting a "Mild and dry few days with good sunshine for Tuesday and Wednesday (St. Patrick's Day), but turning cloudier and cooler later in the week."
