As well as being one of my son's birthday it's also the England's patron Saint's day. He is the Patron saint of archers too. (as well as saint of many other things including many STDs.)
Thanks Gerard, until today I never knew he was Patron saint of herpes, lepers, skin diseases & syphilis amongst other things. Saint George - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
After all of the calls in previous years to have the flag of Saint George banned because it is offensive to Muslims (crusades etc) , I can't believe that there have been no calls to ban Saint Georges day. Maybe I am speaking (typing) to soon.
Happy St George's Day. My son was in a Parade in town on Sunday to help mark it. Scouts Show Pride In Our National Day (from Swindon Advertiser) THE spirit of St George's Day spilled on to the streets of Swindon as Scout groups from across the town took part in an annual parade. He also had his first Hornby train set today for his birthday. I wonder why the St Patrick's Day thread got more replies than this one did ?
The English, The English, The English are best! So up with the English & down with the rest! YouTube - Flanders & Swann (And happy birthday to my sister, who got saddled with 'Georgiana' because of it... ) Cheers, Adam.
Happy St. George's Day to all our English brethren on the board!!! The reason that George cant match Paddy is because you never associated ALCOHOL with the day!!!!
Happy Birthday to Owen's Son too!! And congrats to him on the acquisition of his first Hornby set!! And I know you have prepared a suitable spot for him to place it too. You're a good dad, you are!
The reason that George cant match Paddy is because you never associated ALCOHOL with the day!!!! I really can't see what you mean. I associate alcohol with every day off to wrap myself in the flag...
Not tried uploading a video before let's see if it works. My house today, another flag around the back too.
Actually its nice to see people proud of the fact that they are English. Well done lads and be proud of your country and all it stands for. Now where's me shillelegh??
Thanks Gerard, until today I never knew he was Patron saint of herpes, lepers, skin diseases & syphilis amongst other things. Saint George - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Were you listening to "Today" this morning ? They listed all those delights , and then added that , since he was Turkish , we should celebrate by eating a kebab ! Happy Birthday to your son ! Linden
I work in a well renowned credit card company call centre with 800 people, and there is not one mention of St Georges day anywhere. Quite dissapointing.
Happy our day to all English members. And big raspberries to our European Union friends, see below On St George's Day, EU wipes England off map - Telegraph
Fantastic Map!!! (Only Joking of course!!) Mind you, Brussels has succeeded where Hitler and Napoleon failed. Dont annoy those Belgians!!!
