Wore my AGV St George into work this morning. Made a difference to my Arai. That's about the extent of it.

Celebrating is a bit of an overstatement, but I will be marking the day by having a couple of pints of real English ale tonight.

This isn't aimed at you Ed but you were the first to mention not realising what day it is... it never ceases to amaze me how many English people don't know when St Georges Day is but come March 17 they are all wearing green and getting pi$$ed on Guiness

arent the irish the only nation to celebrate their "saints" day?

Funny isn't it. Most of the population don't believe in 'saints' yet are happy to celebrate a 'saint's day'... go figure;)
