No one calls it racist When the daffodil's worn in Wales Or is offended by their dragon With its forked tail and scales When St Patrick’s day comes round And the shamrock's being worn The Irish are not treated With insult or with scorn If a Scotsman on St Andrew’s day Hoists his flag aloft He’s not proclaimed a fascist Or ridiculed or scoffed So when St George's Day arrives We English men wont hide For Elizabeth, England & St George.

Strange though, I've been out and about this morning and have not seen or heard any reminder whatsoever of St Georges day

Thanks for the birthday wishes folks, must have gone well as I appear to have a hangover which will be cured by having a half day and going to the pub again. its a hard ol life working offshore!!!

As far as I'm aware St george is to do with the church wiping out paganism, all symbolism
