Thread Name: Folklore: St Georges day
Subject: RE: Folklore: St Georges day
I wish that I could get to a St George's day gathering but I'm 3,000 miles away now and will be at NEFFA on the day. Guess I'll just have to brush up on the traditional English songs and try and get hold of a red rose to wear..
I've got my English flag on order and promised to arrive by the 23rd. It seems that another English woman ordered the English flag from the same place and got shirty when she was given the flag of St George. She expected to get the Union flag and argued the toss with the shop owner when she didn't. It took quite a while to get her to understand the difference, so I was told! And that was in California!
