I always said it should be a public holiday in UK as still no idea it was today!!
The Irish know how to celebrate St Pats after all!!
My brother-in law's name is George, named after St George the Dragon, so it's his name day today.
Kronea Pola.
Should be saying it to my bro's Pommie g/f?
Would she be really impressed with me or think I was loopy??

St Georges Day should be celebrated, but only for England as he is the patron saint of England not UK (not being a snob honest :laughing: ).
As you said Ireland have St Patrick and I'm sure Scotland and Wales have their patron saints but can't recall who they are :o
There was a thing going round the last couple years where people would wear a red rose to celebrate St Georges day and were trying to get it recognised but not sure what happened about that.
Personally I think St George should be de-sainted for killing that poor defenceless dragon :p

But a day off would have still been good!!
I have to be very careful with my Scotish friends as I constantly refer to UK as England...not a snob either.
