Brussels: The Manneken Pis turns Irish

I normally don't repeat myself quite so quickly but here is the Manneken Pis yet again. I was in Brussels on St Patrick's day and the little peeing statue was doing his bit to join in the festivities. The Grande Place and surrounding area was full of Irish families wearing large Irish headwear adorned in green, white and orange.

I don't know how many national costumes the Manneken Pis has, but if in Brussels on any particular National day then I suggest wandering the short distance from the Grande Place to
see if the little fellow is joining in the fun.
