Saint George's Day
Calling all English!
Happy Saint George's Day.
It is also the birthday of the bloke who wrote "God for Harry, England and Saint George" before dying on the same date!
And even more importantly it is the regimental day of the Royal Regiment of Fusiliers!

Basically, I'm for anything that gets you through the night. Be it prayer, tranquilizers or a bottle of Jack Daniels, Frank Sinatra

I like the old school expression of the makers name on the label. That style would work well as the basis for a brand logo.Amor Vincit Omnia wrote:English paraphernalia today...

Re: Saint George's Day
Happy St George's day to any forum friends from Bulgaria, Ethiopia, Georgia, Greece, Portugal and Russia.
Is there any ?
I have to admit, i knew about Bulgaria and Georgia but not the other countries.
Regards Steve
