Happy St George's day, though I was always on the side of the dragon personally. ;)

St George slew a dragon, St David lived on bread, water and herbs...
... I wonder who'd win in a fight?:p
Even better, Battle Royale with St Patrick in the mix - afterall, he chased all the snakes outta Ireland.
Embrassingly I can't actually remember off hand what St Andrew did. :oops: Sorry.
EDIT - Ahh, he didn't really do anything, well, for Scotland anyway. Except have some of his bones buried there. ;)
St George's Day. Again?
Didn't we have one of those last year?

Here, here... Most other countries have a Public Holiday for their patron Saint, but then I don't think there's enough English people in the population for the Government to worry about.
Yep happy St Georges day to all!
Should be a holiday really!
I think I might celebrate St George if we had more exclusive rights to him.
He is also the Patron Saint of Canada, Catalonia, Ethiopia, Georgia, Greece, Montenegro, Portugal and Serbia. I think he may even be the patron saint some disease (well the sufferers off anyway) too.
Chances are that he never set foot in our green and pleasant land anyway.
Bah !

Thanks for that, I was struggling to remember who was our patron saint, all I could remember was our most famous writer Luís de Camões (a bit like your Shakespeare then). :oops:
Ah !what a glorious nation :D
