Dyson Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 Happy St. Georges' Day N-Europe! Plan on doing anything for the day? Got any feelings/thoughts about the day itself? Perhaps you think we should have the day off in honour? Whack your thoughts here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EEVILMURRAY Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 I was hoping to get drunk during the day, but as mentioned in the How Was Your Day Thread, I'm going to be spending eight hours writing notes about a job I may get but still don't know dick about.

Jimbob Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Happy St Georges Day to all on N-Europe. I for one am a proud Englishman who is partially Welsh. But still, a great day to be English i must say weather-wise as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fish Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 My secondary school/sixth form was called St. George's, and as such I dislike it instinctively. Oh, and why isn't St. Alban the patron saint of England? He was English, after all. Actually, that said, it would make the Union Flag a bitch to draw - as people who live in and around the city of St Albans will know, his flag is the same as that of St. Andrew, but with a yellow cross instead of white. Anyway, the weathers nice, and I'm stuck inside revising (in theory). Bah! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Captain Falcon Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 If I'd not seen this thread, it would have passed me by completely. You can't buy that level of pride in your country... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayseven Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 I've just decided that I'm going to make it a tradition to have a bbq every St. George's day. Of course, I did the English thing and cancelled today's one due to weather and lazy people. Indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashley Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 I'm not particularly patriotic but why do we not celebrate it more? Like...make it a holiday. Granted I didn't have uni today but a holiday would make life better. The only time I remembered it was St Georges today was when I walked past the school round the corner earlier and thought they were all in casual dress until I realised they were wearing red and white. I don't think I've done anything British today. Watched Frasier, ate a curry, wrote about an American television programme :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
