With reference to celebrating St George's day, we (Barleycorn - Ted, Linda, & Myself) had a gig for a pub celebration last year. Also in the past I was involved in running ST GEORGES FOLK FESTIVAL at Cecil Sharp House, London (HQ of The English Folk Dance & Song Soc.) on the nearest weekend to April 23rd.

I think, however, that the reason that Burn's Night and Paddy's night get celebrated more in England is that it's a chance for publicans to fill their pubs with ex-pats (and many distant descendants of the same).

As to the the question about "Is there a Yorkshire national Day ?" - if you mean do they have a day when they go out and get pissed - yes it starts on Jan 1st and ends on Dec 31st !
