I am off out to find and slay a dragon or two while reciting The Bard.

Happy St George's Day to all!
Difficult one isn't it? There really is no tradition round these parts but I loved the May Day celebrations and of course the miners gala. Up to press one has had to travel to Oxford for May Day but I note posters all over our local park advertising for a May Pole event.
Anyway a happy day to those of you who celebrate St George.
Happy St George's Day ... and be careful out there EC
HAPPY ST. GEORGE'S DAY !!!
A neighbour has the flag flying on his pole - hurrah !!!
It depends. It's our flag and we can fly it where we like, but I recommend a prison sentence for people who fly them with THE SUN or ENGLAND printed there on.
someone had to do it
Not bothered about George. It's the poor old dragon I feel sorry for.

I couldn't resist Velvet...I've snipped the tag off and on the run in Portinscale, not a lot to do here when it's cold though
Saint George was born in Lydda which at the time was part of what was called Syria Palaestina, a Roman province which was a merger of Roman Syria and Roman Judaea, Lydda was in the Roman Judaea part. Lydda is now in Israel. His mother was a Christian from Lydda and his father was a Roman general from Cappadocia in Turkey who had moved to Lydda.

To those who thought he was born and bred in Tunbridge Wells, this news is going to come as a bitter blow
Well I was going to join in and wish FMs happy St George's ....as it seems Ok to wish the Scots happy St Andrew's day , the Welsh happy St David's day and the Irish happy St Patrick's day ......but it might be seen as having adverse connotations
