Regarding St George’s day 12 of us started having a proper afternoon celebrating it back in 1999 we agreed then nobody else could join if the day falls on a Sunday we celebrate Monday ,sadly there are now only 7 of the original 12 left and tomorrow will be the first time we raise a glass to the king.

One of my neighbours and his pals get dressed up as knights of the Crusades and go round the few pubs left in Dewsbury every Georges day. I don't know anyone else who bothers at all.

Thank you for the reminder jimnast. Would have just passed me by otherwise. Good excuse for nifty one tonight.
We did not get to Cheltenham last week, bit of a blow having paid the hotel etc. Nothing a winner or two wont sort out though. |
|
By:
Sorry you could not get to Cheltenham in the week barstool I can assure you finding winners was near on impossible,tonight when you have nifty one you can reflect on how lucky you were to be born an Englishman.
|
|
By:
Certainly will.
I will add. Born at the right time too. Missed the 2nd world war and hopefully the 3rd. |

Over the past few days - My local newspaper has carried stories withthe following H4eadines ...
'Museum celebrates Eid-al-Fitr with family fun day' 'Have fun celebrating Eid at Museum this weekend' 'Eid-al-Fitr announcements made to mark end of Ramadan' 'What do Eid al-Fitr celebrations look like for Muslims around the world' - and this beauty ... '7 Things you SHOULD know about EID' (WHY do I NEED to know anything ?) NOT One mention of - ST GEORGE'S DAY, though. Mind you ... Looking at the list of Candidates for the forthcoming Council Elections ... They have already taken over. |

By:
Good point onlooker, Tesco are doing Eid ads but nowt for George. TV presenters revel in local festivals and celebrations on holiday programmes and travel documentaries, but our own saints day is seen as bad taste.

By:
Hope you kept the cut out of how to make an Eid Lantern for next year onlooker.

By:
Really is sad to read those posts, surely its time the English showed that bull dog spirit ye are famous for, and stood up for your rights to simply enjoy been English...

Good morning onlooker hope your well
Not just your local newspaper but I would say many local newspapers will have acted in the same way how on earth have we ended up like this |

By:
Well barstool you'll just have to undone what they have done and make your point , it really is a shame what has happened to a wonderful Country. I was in the Cotswolds last week and its beauty simply blew me away , don't let them ruin it ...
