While most people enjoy a pint of Guinness and claim some sort of Irish ancestry - Heather Lydon was commemorating St Patrick's Day for a very different reason.
The 70-year-old lost her husband Michael last month to illness after nearly 27 years of marriage. She was quietly sitting enjoying the atmosphere at Hennessey's Irish Bar yesterday morning in honour of her late husband.
Mrs Lydon has fond memories of them visiting Ireland in 1992 and can remember how they would go to an Irish pub and have breakfast each St Patrick's Day.
"He was a full blooded Irishman and I've bought his [green] jumper with me. We used to always celebrate St Patrick's together each year," she said.
"I miss everything about him, I really miss his company. He loved his Irish music and country and western music and I'm here so his memory lives on."
