St George's Day Today Everyone

[dave50]

In case anyone didn't realise. Of course because it's not St Patrick's day nobody mentions it

:-P

[Hopkirk]

Did St George even know England existed?

[ichkeria]

Nobody mentions it?

Some mistake surely. As a non-English person I'm delighted that St George has largely been rescued from the neo-Nazis

[silliemillie]

Put my flag out this morning.

[Baldric]

Makes you proud!

I vote we change from St George to Bobby Robson.

I think a lot of people mention it but there tends to be less events planned. I think its the same for St David and St Andrews Day.

More is made of St Patricks Day in England purely because Guinness invests lots into a heavy marketing campaign.

[mccfluff]

i think its being mentioned quite a lot

Dave....St. Patrick's Day happens because we make it happen...

What do you do to make your day one of celebration?

[gness]

Lurking, Chanel!...Lurking??? We don't lurk......we burst out singing, dancing the odd jig and waving a pint of Guinness!.....;-).....♣

[gness]

Then we must meet, Chanel.... and I will buy you a Guinness and teach you an Irish Reel......then you needn't lurk....but you do the singing bit....I would have us locked away......♣

In Eire numerous villages and towns have St Patricks Day Parades. its great, and everyone so friendly. Does anyone have a parade in their town on St George's Day over here?

Chanel5, no you won't. Some of my best friends are Ulster Protestants.
