Happy St. George's Day

Hi Everyone,

Just though I would send happy St. George's day wishes to you all.

Has anyone got anything good planned?

I am going shopping tonight... that is all. I wish we could have a public holiday for this.

Happy St. George's Day to you too.

I'm going to work. :( They should give us the day off. Angry

Me and the Mrs are going to a restaurant which specialises in traditional British food like bangers & mash, boiled beef & carrots etc. Later on in the evening, we'll be meeting up with friends for drinks and if the weather's nice, burn down the local Mosque.

Happy St. George's Day! I'm going to have a pint. (It's what he would have wanted.)

And Happy Birthday (and Death Day) to Shakespeare.

Can I come? I wanna burn a Mosque :D :D

I shall be spending St George's Day like I always do - in a state of total indifference to it.

Although I may go out and slay a dragon later if the fancy takes me.

On the day when England were playing Portugal in 2006 at the quarter finals stage of the World Cup, one tabloid's headline was 'Do it for St George'. Someone probably should have realised he's also Portugal's Patron Saint.

Hahaha. Ace.

A few years ago we spent St. George's Day at a concert for the Tsunami relief fund and ended up singing Jerusalem along with Billy Bragg. Doesn't get a lot more English than that.

St. George's Day? I thought you guys hated Bush?

It's actually a day dedicated to George Roper from George and Mildred. Probably the greatest Englishman ever.

He must be American because there are no gay or camp English men. Fact.
