be proud of your history.

We have no need to celebrate St Georges day. We don't need to go around shouting how great we are, everybody knows that.

Not interested in your shtick. Move on.

I only logged in because I had to contact an organisation that only allows itself to be viewed or contacted via fucking Facebook. I even gave up on that. 

I don't get involved in those social media things. 

Can always WHOmail me.


 

Fair enough my dear X

Nursey did you get my message on Fuckbook?

The centrist dads of WHO are far too cool for this caper, stewey. 

Other than rage-baiters on Twitter parroting the same nonsense, has anyone ever met a Muslim who was upset by the St. George's Cross?

Whereas Turks didn’t enter modern day Turkey until several hundreds of years after St George’s death. There was no ‘Turkish’ history or tradition where St George was born, until the best part of a thousand years later, with Beethoven it’s the opposite.

Try again.

It doesn't matter whether he was Turkish or Greek, or from anywhere else. He killed a dragon, which is more than any of you have done.

"And isn't the house you were born in the most interesting house in the world to you?..that you want to know how your father did, and his father.

well, there are more ways than one of getting close to your ancestors - follow the old road, and as you walk, think of them and the old England.

they climbed the same hills just as you did - they sweated and paused for breath just as you did today. And when you see the blue bells and the spring, the wild thyme, the broom and the heather, you're only seeing what their eyes saw, and fording the same rivers, the same birds are singing.

and when you lie flat on your back and rest, and watch the clouds sailing, as I often do, you're so close to those other people, that you can hear the thrumming of the hooves of their horses and the sound of the wheels on the road, and their laughter and talk, and the music of the instruments they carried.

and when I turn in the bend in the road, where they too saw the towers of Canterbury, I feel I've only to turn my head, to see them on the road behind me"

(Powell and Pressburger - A Canterbury Tale - 1944)

Thought it'd been moved to next Monday, due to Easter?

Quite  surprised that none of the loons have claimed St George was trans. I mean,if it's good enough for Jesus....   


Anyway,happy St Georde's day to proud English men & women everywhere.
