Title: St Georges Day again, Are you celebrating?
Post by: zirk on 19 April 2010, 12:02:44
Well its that time of year again, the ill fated celebration of  England's National Flag.

Me, I'm taking the day off on Friday with some mates and going down to the Fullers Brewery in Chiswick for the day, a few hours getting shown arround the place and then down to the good part of sampling the delights!, should be a good day out me thinks.  :y

See our two local Wetherpubs arn't bothering again, despite doing something for St Patrick's Day and St Andrews, upsets too many people apparently  >:( >:( >:(, but nice to see our local Asian Shop with the flag in the window  :D.

What you up to?, celebrating?

Chris.



ps. anyone that fancies flying the flag, feel free to use mine:-  :y

I am sure if we celebrate it, we will be rascist. And deemed to have offended someone somewhere in the world. So we will have to be prosecuted under nu labor laws.  ;D ;D ;D


Yes I just had to get a dig in about the government.  :y

I also have two St George's flags hung up at my work bench at work & a small one on the back of my Mig :) :) They're there all the time :y :y
Not just for one day of the year ;)

I'll be flying the Cross of St. George flag and wearing a White Dragon badge.
If others think I'm racist, tough - that's not my problem!

interestingly, up until the 18th century St Georges day used to be as big a deal as Christmas in England.

then we let you join us and it dwindled  ;)

i don't see why it's not a bigger deal - i'm all for it, no one in their right mind would have a problem with it surely?  :o
