Whos going to spend all day in the pub drinking Carling and Ale (even though they dont normally drink it) all day just like everyone did on the 17th March with Guinness?

Thaught not

 

[Barrel of Fun]

I am surprised we haven't been marching for the flag this year.

 

[Burgess Hill Seagulls]

Keep St George in my heart, keep me English. Happy St George's day NSC!

Why would you celebrate St George's Day with a Canadian beer?

not all day, but i'll sup some pride or bombardier today. and what Juan said.

In Liverpool this week there are loads of St George's cross flags attached high up on streetlights, obviously put up by the local authority. They look brilliant. I'd like to see something similar in Brighton & Hove.

I think there are some festivities going on in Jubliee Street and New Road today.

The Brighton & Hove St George's Day Charity is having it annual luncheon today - guest speak is Nobby Stiles.

I'll think you find a lot of the Microbreweries do a lager - pretty certain Hepworth in Horsham do one...

Mind you, you should be drinking an English ALE today

[Couldn't Be Hyypia]

Sma Smiths do a really good lager. Available all over London in their pubs and in some shops I guess since it also comes in bottles. http://www.merchantduvin.com/pages/5_breweries/samsmith_pure_brewed_lager.html

Happy St George's Day to one and all.

[Durlston]

I'm too hungover to celebrate with a few pints of Bombardier but i'm going to make up for it tomorrow!

Happy St George's Day everyone.:dance:

 

[little al]

Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more;
Or close the wall up with our English dead.
In peace there's nothing so becomes a man
As modest stillness and humility:
But when the blast of war blows in our ears,
Then imitate the action of the tiger;
Stiffen the sinews, summon up the blood,
Disguise fair nature with hard-favour'd rage;
Then lend the eye a terrible aspect;
Let pry through the portage of the head
Like the brass cannon; let the brow o'erwhelm it
As fearfully as doth a galled rock
O'erhang and jutty his confounded base,
Swill'd with the wild and wasteful ocean.
Now set the teeth and stretch the nostril wide,
Hold hard the breath and bend up every spirit
To his full height. On, on, you noblest English.
Whose blood is fet from fathers of war-proof!
Fathers that, like so many Alexanders,
Have in these parts from morn till even fought
And sheathed their swords for lack of argument:
Dishonour not your mothers; now attest
That those whom you call'd fathers did beget you.
Be copy now to men of grosser blood,
And teach them how to war. And you, good yeoman,
Whose limbs were made in England, show us here
The mettle of your pasture; let us swear
That you are worth your breeding; which I doubt not;
For there is none of you so mean and base,
That hath not noble lustre in your eyes.
I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips,
Straining upon the start. The game's afoot:
Follow your spirit, and upon this charge
Cry 'God for Harry, England, and Saint George!'
