Get into the Irish Spirit!


Today was St. Patrick's Day and we were up before the crack of dawn taking Philip Doyle, the main man representing Guinness in New Zealand (who just happens to be Irish), around radio stations for interviews. With a strong coffee in one hand, a cold Guinness in the other, an array of promotional gear in another person's hand and a giant Guinness-chocolate cupcake in the other (thank St Patrick we had an entourage), we visited 8 stations in 3 hours. No mean feat! Highlights included Philip doing a rap on Mai FM, reading the news on Hauraki, and hosting a special St. Patrick’s Day pub quiz on More FM.

All in all, a very successful start to St Patrick's Day and a lot of Guinness was consumed for breakfast as everyone got into the true Irish spirit! (except by us as we were working)
