Today is our national holiday, St.Patrick’s Day. Each city, town and village will have their own parade today to celebrate. I will be going to my local parade at 3pm :) 

 

The Dublin City parade is starting now if anyone is interested to watch:

Terrible. I always hated copycats. :mad:

Yeah. Well, I am not a fan of military parades neither, they are not common here, it was just a special one in honor of the 80th anniversary of the SNP (Slovak national uprising),

 

but it was still more fun to see the foreign troops marching, a weird sort of parade of nations...

 

like :CRO, :ITA or my fav :POR

    • Germany also fell hard in this discipline, the same thing happened to Russia - in 2022 they were much weaker than before. Romania – similar levels for years. France – strong growth until 2024, and now a decline again. Georgia – growth, but a large number of naturalized people from the Balkans play there. Generally, I see Georgia has been naturalizing a lot in various sports lately: water polo, figure skating, etc. Could that local regime there be spending much more money to further promote the country through sports?

    • To be fair,  has been active in men's water polo for about a decade. I've been using them as a barometer for whether a European nation is relevant.   I'd love to see them face non-European nations some time to see how they'd stack up.
