    ..................to you all. Why should the Irish have Carte Blanche on Saint's days? St Patrick only saw off a few snakes. Our man dropped a dragon for ****'s sake. I'll certainly be raising a glass or three tonight.

    There had better be 50p knocked off a pint of Carling like there was for Guiness on Paddy's Day. If not, it's ****ing racism.

    Who's the patron saint of Uruguay by the way? <whistle>

    Anyway, have a good'un <ok>

    We have one of those days with some fella named David not sure what he actually did though and I don't seem to benefit from his day!

    He's the patron saint of Catalonia and ex-soviet Georgia.

    As an expat I always do to my family.

    Of course. George was a foreigner... had nothing to do with England... and was forced on us by a Frenchman.... so silly day to celebrate I suppose.

    We should celebrate it, I mean St Paddy's day is an excuse for the Irish to drink their own bodyweight in the black stuff.

    So why don't we come up with a suitable celebration for St Georges day? We could maybe start a tradition of eating red hot kebabs to simulate the dragons breath, after consuming a gallon of bastard cider, we would then obviously finish the days festivities with a good old fashioned kick off. <ok>

    We should change our St.

    St. Cuthberts day is March 20th.
    St. Wystans day is June 1st.

    George wasn't English... he was a Turk. He never came to England (if he even existed) and was forced on us by a Frenchman.


    Change the English flag back to its original white dragon on a red field and change the patron St to Cuthbert.

    Then we can celebrate by wearing tweed and monocles having picnics in the country saying phrases like "oh jolly good bread pudding" and be true Englishmen.

    I like it, would there be any pastry?

    After a game of rounders, we could sit down & draw up plans for the new Empire <ok>

    Sounds like a plan to me. I'm already embedded in the US looking for weaknesses so we can reconquer them.


    My initial plan involves threatening to put flavour in their beer unless they surrender.

    All we need to do is capture every deep fat fryer repairman across the 52 states & they'd come to a grinding halt within weeks.

    Cut off their supply lines <tapsnose> my Sandhurst training wasn't wasted <ok>
