It’s Saint Patrick’s Day & We’re in Strata Clover

It’s Saint Patrick’s Day today.  A day when Leprechauns and everyone else goes green, looks for shamrocks and enjoys themselves in traditional Irish ways.

Saint Patrick's Day is actually a religious holiday celebrating the patron saint of Ireland who lived between AD 387 and AD461.  It became an official Irish feast day in the 17th century and is now a secular celebration of Irish culture all over the world.

But, what’s this got to do with strata?  More than you might expect.

Firstly, Ireland has strata title and strata titles laws.  (I know it's a pretty weak connection)

Secondly, Ireland (like New South Wales) developed some of the first strata title laws in the world in the early 1960's.  So, it's a pioneer.

Thirdly, Irish strata laws are about to have some major changes introduced at the end of the month.  So, watch out for my blog on that soon.

And, fourthly, I've heard rumours that Leprechauns live in medium density flats in the inner city areas of Dublin.

So wear the green today and I hope you find a four leafed clover.
