Saint Georges Day.

[Georgiesmum]

Its ST. GEORGES DAY today, our national day. Does anyone think it should be a national holiday?

[douglas9401]

Sure, take the rest of the day. :-)

[andy-hughes]

It would be nice - not because I am even slightly patriotic, but a day off is always a good thing to have.

[ummmm]

No..

I would like to wish all my English friends a happy St George's day

[Georgiesmum]

Im retired but i think we ought to make more of it, its hardly mentioned or celebrated.

[steg]

I do Anne, they speak funny but I don't hold that against them ;)

[anneasquith]

hardly mentioned G. there are 3 posts opened about it in AB at the moment !!!!!!!

Not sure if it should be a NH, but I do think we should make more of an effort for it.

[ummmm]

I think more of an effort should be made, too.

Problem is...it's seems to be a day for football hooligan types.

Georges day = riot vans out in force.

[Georgiesmum]

Not mentioned locally i mean Anne, no flags up or special celebrations.

[Georgiesmum]

He is not exactly easy to identify with thou is he?, I know Game of Thrones is popular but I have not seen a dragon for years.

A day off to celebrate an Italian that most will only know as someone who slayed a creature that never even existed! Why not?

[Baldric]

Any excuse for another days lost production!

[1ozzy]

We should have a day off for the mythical creature too Ratter15.
I'm liking this idea.

[ummmm]

And St Patrick was Irish.

It's an excuse to have a *** up...

[1ozzy]
