~S~ Englanders,

Hope you had a good day. We put a large George cross flag up on our 5 story drill tower for the day :) (The station is opposite a hoofing great mosque :thumbsu: he he )

BTW: one of the chaps was saying that St Goerge was a Roman soldier with Christian parents...can anyone expand ?

~S~ Shameless.

Found this:

Quick Facts about St George

Born in Turkey (in Cappadocia)

Lived in 3rd century

His parents were Christian

Became a Roman soldier

Protested against Rome's persecution of Christians

Imprisoned and tortured, but stayed true to his faith

Beheaded at Lydda in Palestine

So now we know; Dear old St. George. 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 :roflmao:

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 :shaunv2:
