-pops- Posted April 23, 2006 Report Share Posted April 23, 2006 I find it incredible that on the Patron Saint of England's Day, nobody has given him a mention (until now). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belatucadrus Posted April 23, 2006 Report Share Posted April 23, 2006 That would be because unlike St Patrick, St George isn't used as a generic excuse to extend the licensing hours and get hammered. Thus has not had such an impact on the general populace of these fair isles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Belatucadrus Posted April 23, 2006 Report Share Posted April 23, 2006 Just been for a walk around the local countryside, the pub was well decorated with flags and quite a few people had them in windows or gardens.I expect the local PC brigade will soon descend on them en masse with allegations of incipient racism.Go dragon slayer !!!Yah boo sucks to the PC crew. May be a bit childish, but I thought I'd express myself in terms they'd understand, without any confusion or misconceptions of any nature.

dadyassa Posted April 23, 2006 Report Share Posted April 23, 2006 It was forgotten probably because this year the media didn`t run any stories about council offices not being allowed to fly the St George Cross flag in case it upset the muslems.
