    No one calls it racist When the daffodil's worn in Wales Or is offended by their dragon With its forked tail and scales When St Patrick’s day comes round And the shamrock's being worn The Irish are not treated With insult or with scorn If a Scotsman on St Andrew’s day Hoists his flag aloft He’s not proclaimed a fascist Or ridiculed or scoffed So when St George's Day arrives We English men wont hide For Elizabeth, England & St George.



    Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
    The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.

    By gosh, yeah it is and I also had forgotten. Shame on me.

    Strange though, I've been out and about this morning and have not seen or heard any reminder whatsoever of St Georges day

    Thanks for the birthday wishes folks, must have gone well as I appear to have a hangover which will be cured by having a half day and going to the pub again. its a hard ol life working offshore!!!

    As far as I'm aware St george is to do with the church wiping out paganism, all symbolism
    It's been emontional
