Saint George's Day

Post by bspj »

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! :wave:

Happy St George's Day from me too.

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. :)

Happy St George's day to any forum friends from Bulgaria, Ethiopia, Georgia, Greece, Portugal and Russia.

I have to admit, i knew about Bulgaria and Georgia but not the other countries.
