Been looking forward to St Georges since the lockdown started .Put my George cross up out the front and will have a few beers out the garden later when it warms up a bit . The Mrs will join in not because its St Georges in particular but that it will be wine time again . Its been wine time since Christmas (1980 ) or should that be whine time .

Fecking piss head neads to slow down a bit ,I brought her a rowing machine and told her to loose some weight but its still in the box , £299 if anyones interested . Its got Velcro foot straps but I think it was a bit of a rip off .

Happy St Georges Day !

You know St George is a myth right?

No!

less of a myth than Robin Hood for sure, prob less so than King Arthur, a cr*p patron saint to go with our cr*p national anthem and our cr*p sense of patriotism

the dragon bit's a myth I grant you, as for the man himself the Catholic Church canonises human beings not myths, and I'm fine with the right type of nationalism when it's about the actual population, like the way Australians are patriotic, and not some propagandising set of icons or nostalgia for Empire, actually I do prefer countires like Belgium, Denmark, Portugal or Canada who are proud of their countries but don't think they're a race apart like some places ... don't Rangers fans say 'We are the People' - French, Americans, Russians, Poles, Brits can have this superior pride, while other nationalities are less afflicted - I've got Czech heritage - Velvet Revolution and Divorce, one death in all that commotion and they reckon that was a set up, compare that to what used to be Yugoslavia, I prefer my nationalism lite.
