Happy St Georges Day !!

Have a great St Georges day to all the English members of the forum.. It is amazing how it is never celebrated much compared with St Patricks Day. Have fun..

hello dec.. I for one, would like to celebrate St Georges Day.. there was supposed to be a campaign last year to get it as widely recognised as Paddys Day.. but doubt it will ever happen.. could this be cos we are not as much of a nation of **** heads as the Paddys or just not as patriotic???

I don't think at times as patriotic and this country tries to restrict the St Georges Day celebrations so as not to "offend" other minorities...what a load of crap... Still i suppose i have the best of both worlds seeing how my parents were Irish...

Have fun Sapphire..

true on the fact st george's day isnt celebrated like st paddy's day

Well I spent the day looking English. Doing that sober is hard work, but I made it. <Reaches for Orange juice>

We're not all ####Heads and we are very patriotic i might add

tis true to be sure

i think its so popular initially as emmigrants of Ireland the world over used it to remember where they came from. This biggest patricks day parades are not in Ireland

and id love to see George celebrated! slaying that dragon! and another excuse to P-A-R-T-Y (or take a day off which is my fav aas i drink next to nothing )

Delayed celebration going to a John Bull party on Friday a yearly tradition

So yes some of us do, do something to remember our Britishness

From my point of wiev, it's a fading thing. In Scotland for sure.
BTW, Thanx for your letter

You welcome
