It's Saint Patrick's Day!

And here's a selection of goodies to play with on this special day.

Listen to a podcast telling the story of St Paddy's life and Ireland's conversion to Christianity: see http://irishhistorypodcast.ie/2011/03/15/special-a-history-of-st-patrick-and-irelands-conversion-to-christianity/

Grab a bargain book or cd with Eneclann's 25% off deal until Sunday (20th): see Eneclann's shop.

Help yourself to a discounted subscription from Irish Origins at www.origins.net. 20% discount available for 10 days (ends 27th March). Be sure to enter the code: STPATS2011 in the Promotional Code box on the Sign Up page or in your Cart before checkout.

Take a sneaky preview of www.dippam.ac.uk, a brand new site dedicated to Documenting Ireland: Parliament, People and Migration. It's official launch is 25th March, so you've got a week before everyone finds out about it. Loads of fascinating data and imagery about 18th to 20th century emigration from Northern Ireland.

Have a great day!
