A funny thing happened on the way to the parade

Another year, another St Patrick’s Day, and this one was supposed to be extra special for Smiley. I’d forgotten to apply for a space in the disabled viewing area for the Dublin Parade, so I was looking for something else to do on the day. I actually enjoy the smaller parades, they’re usually just as much fun, a lot less stressful and you can see everything, even without special viewing areas. So I got complacent, but more of that later.
