Pfft. What kind of pointless Saint's day is that?
November 20th according to Google. I think he has the advantage of having been a real person who lived in what is now England, would be unique to England (where George is shared by many), and he was the original patron saint. His flag is a dragon so I'd also like to see what Nike did with that on the collars of shirts.Depends, when can we get pissed with St Edmund
But I'll be drinking anyway.Don't care, I'm in![]()

These days…
Many years ago I argued in a bar full of pissed Germans in Prague that England were better at Football. Whilst the Germans rolled off World cup 90, Euro 96 and numerous other glittering successes, we had one thing in our armory.Many years ago I was witness to a marvellous argument between an Englishman and a Frenchman over which nationality was more arrogant.
I judged the Frenchie to have won the debate with the rejoinder "but you English think you are so superior you don't even bother to show it".
So it is with our national day. We quietly ignore it because we have absolutely no need to do otherwise.
This argument also suggests that those getting worked up about at George's day must be insecure little shitgibbons.
I'm confused now. Is he in Brighton or is he INGORING?
And how does he feel about that?Needs to come to my house, massive England flag displayed at the end of a pole.
He's probably thinking about going back to Poland by now.Needs to come to my house, massive England flag displayed at the end of a pole.
