Funny that this never gets mentioned.

Even my iPhone calender has St Patrick's & St Andrew's days tagged but not St George's.

Anyway to all my fellow Englishmen have a good one.

    It certainly begs the question Jock why is our national day devoted to a Turk a Turk who slayed a dragon ffs not that I have any issues with the Turkish or dragons I just feel our national day our English day should be devoted to an English person man or woman.

    Happy English day all.

    Well it's also William Shakespeare's birthday, so it works out quite well I think.

    Happy St George's Day Everyone!
