    Coincides with a big rugby day today too.

    There will be many pissed up Paddies in Cardiff today, conveniently on their way back from Cheltenham.

  5. It's an ex Pat and second generation thing. Was in Australia for St George's day once and was a bit surprised as it was a bigger deal than it is here.
    I tend to go out but only because I see mates with families that I only see a couple of times a year now. I like to think of it as an Irish New year's Eve...

    Because getting pissed on Guinness is a lot more appealing than prancing round a pole wearing ribbons and tapping tambourines.

    That, and St George's day is racist, obvs.

    The heavy Irish influence in Liverpool is simply a fact and yes it is a great day in town, always has been.

    Anyone come out with some bollocks about how St George’s day has been banned in their town for fear of offending Muslims?

    No? Let me know when xx

    Well St George wasn't actually English, if that helps.

    Plus there was no dragons.

    Not sure how you took me saying it wasn't a fact with a yawn comment but whatever. Each to their own, I can't get my head around celebrating another countries day. They aren't part of the UK or **** all.
