St. George's Day

St. George's Day

Probably been done before but can't be fucked to go back through all the threads.

What's people's thoughts - should it be a bank holiday?? Does seem odd that most of my english mates don't think twice about going on the piss for St Patricks Day but never consider it for St Georges.

I don't think it should be a bank holiday, but I do find it odd when English people celebrate St Patrick's but not St George's. Maybe because the Irish party harder than we do, and we just want to join in!

What is Engishness?

Tetley bitter, meet & potato pies and a single red rose? What do you identify with Englishness.

Add shouting "Oi oi savaloy" at the top of your voice to that list.

proper racism there

Fuck off curls

Mark it better than it is now, no reason why it couldn't be a positive celebration like the other St's days.

Agree totally. Surely by making it more widespread you reclaim /prevent it from having racist connotations (though I'm sure some PC lot will be unhappy about it)

Be much better than the 'Brittish' Day Gordon Brown was proposing.

oooooo i can see theres pure jess hate coming from that av

I don't feel British.. I feel English and would happily celebrate that.

I couldnt care less tbh


I dont need a day off work to remind me which country i was born in....St Patricks day is only celebrated massively because the Irish dont have a lot else to celebrate in their potatoe ridden drunken existance

i don't give to fucks either,i don't need and excuse to get pissed, i just go the cash machine and i'm away

cool i normally go to the pub ,might try the cash machine next time

I've no problem celebrating it.

Most racists havent a clue who dear old george was though.

maybe not a bank holiday, but i see no reason why we shouldn't make it a good knees up on a par with st patricks day.
