He wouldn't get into the UK today as not an EU citizen. Would also fail our points system for entry as I don't believe Dragon-slaying is on the list of skills shortages we hold. Would have to try his luck jumping on the back of a lorry at Calais with the other illegals! Then off to a caravan in Lincolnshire for a spot of spud picking Quote
2. Administrators fruitbat Posted April 25, 2010 Author 2. Administrators Posted April 25, 2010 seems like he's quite popular, don't think he'd find a shortage of places to go, as "Saint George is the patron saint of Aragon, Catalonia, England, Ethiopia, Georgia, Greece, Lithuania, Palestine, Portugal, and Russia, as well as the cities of Amersfoort, Beirut, Fakiha, Bteghrine, Cáceres (Spain), Ferrara, Freiburg, Genoa, Ljubljana, Milan, Pomorie, Preston, Salford, Qormi, Rio de Janeiro, Lod, Barcelona, Moscow and the Maltese island of Gozo, as well as a wide range of professions, organizations, and disease sufferers." St George info dragons must of been a real problem back in the day Quote
