OK, it's a big risk, (nobody might post!) but I'm going to do it anyway:
I've been inspired by the generosity of Nancy Mon, and have decided to offer a giveaway of my own! Next month we celebrate the day of our patron saint, and in honour of all things Patrick, I have a parcel of some Irish goodies to give away to someone.
My children are off for half term today, so we made collecting items for this parcel our project for the day. We've had great fun; everyone got to choose things to put in (be warned!) and we hope whoever gets the parcel has great fun with it too.
Just to give you an idea of the contents, there's a photo journal of Irish travel experiences, a CD of traditional Irish Airs, a short DVD showing scenes from Northern Ireland, some Irish linen, a sample of the best Irish whiskey and a variety of party items and nic-nacs (and no, that's not the Irish word for undergarments!) to get your St Patricks Day celebrations off to a good start.
Depending on the behaviour, I might actually include one of my kids in the parcel as well.
So, if you're interested all you have to do is post your name (and of course a comment!) in the comments section for this post and we - it's a family affair now - will make the draw on 29th February. That gives us plenty of time to ensure the parcel gets to where it has to go in time for the big day ... and yes, I will 'ship' to anywhere in the world!
Do maith ocus líth dúib!

Hi....Greetings from Minnesota. Please enter me in your giveaway. Thank you!
Oh pick ME Ali!!!! I would love to win...
Can we enter more than once? :)
Watch Dana Ali. You will find the most posts from "friends" of Dana who don't seem to have any Internet access to respond. Yet the puzzling question is this...how did these "friends" know about the give away?
Please pick me. Pick my name. I'll say it again...pick Nancy.
Oh Dana has many friends! Why there's Eufegenia, and remember Dorinda? She'll tell you Ali! She told Nancy "Hey that Dana broad, she's the goods, she wouldn't go and do nuttin' illegal like cheatin. No ways." Then there's Dory. And many, many more.
I think you should go ahead and enter them. They would appreciate it. And so's she won't be casting anymore aspersions on my character, I'll send Uncle Tony to visit Nancy...
Nancy, Don't go breaking my heart!
I couldn't cheat if I tried.
Nobody knows it...but when I was down, you were my clown.
:)
Oh My! This is the coolest giveaway ever! I'd love to receive goodies from another country so include me please :) Thank you!
Children, children!
Nancy, I'm sure a good Baptist like Day-na wouldn't cheat :-p
Now Day-na, you know you can get help for that multiple personality thing you have going on there. But clever of you to slip another entry in under the door...
Now see, there's the problem, I wouldn't go calling myself a good baptist.
I thought it was a little crowded in here...
:)
I would like to enter the contest.
Thank you sweetie.
Millie
I am interested... as long as the parcel doesn't contain one of your kids! (I think my landlady would mind.)
Psst, Ali, I think you have a fake entry...
I got your back Ali!
No cheating folks, please.
And no mention of corned beef or a head of cabbage. What fun you are having with your post.
With all those name sin your cyberspace hat, pick Jessie, pick Jessie
Well now, this has turned into an interesting journey!
Hi Ikkinlala, I love your socks project!
Millie, welcome to my blog. I wonder who introduced you??
(Day-na, thanks for the heads up)
Pick me! Please, please pick me!! I'll even collect the Great St Pat's Day Giveaway.
I hope the giveaway contains those great Irish delicacies - soda and potato bread. Do you have any champ in it? And an Ulster fry would go down well. (Let's see you explain these to your international posters!)
Nic-Nacs AND Bushmills?...count us in! Save shipping and just bring the lovely parcel to Boston with you in 4 weeks - ha!
Howdy from Texas! Please enter me in your giveaway!
Have a blessed day!
Welcome Cynthia!
Hey Rose ... you're in!! There could well be a bottle of Bush coming your way anyway ...
counting the days :-)
Count me in I'm working St Patricks day so the kids could just bring it with them but please remember to collect at 4pm much as I love them I ain't keeping them even if you're giving them away xx
It heather by the way I've forgotten my password so anonymous was the only way I could leave a comment ;-)
Heather, I'm afraid that I won't be able to collect my children from you at 4pm on St Patrick's Day as I will be in Boston. But they love you very much, so they won't mind :-)
Kelly's in the draw - she just entered in the wrong place .... (Americans!)
I should say that Kelly's disqualified then, but she is a friend...(American or not)
;)
Please don't pick me. Give it to a small deserving child in the street.
Steve, you're in the draw, primarily because I don't know where your tongue is, and also because I know some small deserving children who could do with cheering up (Pluto's class!)
