Re: Happy St. George's day.

Unfortunately not, a very busy day today which includes a lot of driving. I think there will be a lot a revelry around though enjoy St Georges day however you spend it.

Have a great day.

Re: Happy St. George's day.

I want to know why we should celebrate the life of a Romano-Turkish Centurion reprobate who had no contact with and knew nothing about England. A supposed saint 'foisted' on us by the Catholic church. Surely as a democratic society we should have a say in and a choice of who we choose to represent England???

Re: Happy St. George's day.

Good morning everyone .... and a happy St George's Day to you all! My Grammar school was called St George and every morning we sang the school anthem:

"In the days of old when knights were bold,
St George went forth to fight,
With his trusty steed and his sword of gold
And his armour shining bright..."

I wish I could remember the rest of it .... we used to belt out the song with gusto at morning assemblies ...... ahh those were the days!

Re: Happy St. George's day.

There is another version of that song Mags darlin' - which is not so complimentary.

Re: Happy St. George's day.

Happy Saint Georges day to everyone.

mesco m. Did they have a St Georges parade this year in Manchester? It normally sets of on Varley St, Miles Platting, then into Manchester.

I can just imagine your version Uncle Joe.
