Norman Verona Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 Does that include Englishman who live in France? Quote
Onliest Smeg David Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 Being the feast of St George. We'll be celebrating with gentlemanly tastings of Olde English Real Ales and fine food @ assorted hostelries in Manchester. Starting 1300hrs at the Oasthouse in Spinningfields. All welcome! :D Quote
M444TTB Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 What does one do on St George's day? Are there any traditions to observe? Quote
bhouse Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 Given St George's ancestry, perhaps a quick recitation of an Arabic script followed by a kebab for lunch would be appropriate! Quote
Paul Hurdsfield - Joint Manchester AO Posted April 23, 2014 Author Posted April 23, 2014 That would have to be a Dragon kebab Norm it includes all Englishmen wherever you are Quote
Norman Verona Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 Actually there is a huge St Georges meeting in a village not far from here. Attendance is about 50/50 Brits and Frogs. They have a car boot sale, music, beer and wine, sausages and chips and some classic cars. I took the 7 and the Midget for a few years. We didn't go this year, just couldn't stand all those Brits!

Man On The Clapham Omnibus Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 Happy St George's Day: "Cry God for Harry, England, and St George!" Quote
s2rrr Posted April 23, 2014 Posted April 23, 2014 Apparently even Dave Cameron has said that St George needs some more street cred. He's gone up just a little in my opinion. Bob Quote
