Can't really believe you never heard of St George's day, lol, how long have you been living in England?
Maybe not as well known as St Patricks day, but i think its about time the English celebrate St Georges like the Irish celebrate St Patricks.  |

According to most versions, he was born in Turkey, had a Greek father and never actually came to England. The dragon story originated in Libya. Never quite sure why he's "our" patron saint. |
