Every year I bleat about this on here and yet this year, it's even passed me by. Yes folks, today should have marked the celebration of our national Patron Saint but there were no flags to be seen, barely a mention in the media and certainly no sign of a national holiday in sight.
Probably some PC brigade somewhere has decreed that it's no longer appropriate to display any sense of national pride. Well I'm certainly not out to offend anyone so for what it's worth, Happy St George's Day...

To celebrate we had bangers and mash with a nice cup of tea. But we didn't invite the vicar round. We did talk about the weather and fussed over the dog. All we needed was a bowler hat to complete the touristy picture of Englishness...and a stiff upper lip!
...and some gratuitous hooliganism because of course the English are famous for that. You'd never find those nice Italians, Dutch and Germans hooliganating!
Jolly good show
:o)
