Happy St Georges day one and all.

I only wish we could celebrate it without it being hijacked by right wing nutters!

Today they will be dancing in the streets of .....errrrr..... nowhere.
England is not encouraged to celebrate its national day as everyone else does theirs.

Georgiansilver. St Patrick was Welsh (or possibly English). St Andrew was Palestinian. If we had to stick to our own nationality for Patron Saints we would all be in trouble! :-)

Traditionally, today's the day you pick dandelions for dandelion wine. If you plan a heavy night on the stuff, make sure your mattress protector is waterproof.

I wonder who the Patron Saint of Norfolk would be? And what our flag should have as our emblem?
I imagine it would be St Walstan. And a bunch of samphire? Or a dumpling?

Our motto:-
Norfolk and good! :)

England is not encouraged to celebrate its national day as everyone else does theirs.

That's because we don't need to make a song and dance, literal or metaphorical, about being better than the rest. We just get quietly on with it.
