http://www.london.gov.uk/mayor/culture/stgeorge.jsp This site gives details of the celebrations in London - for St George and for Shakespeare whose death anniversary in 1616 is on the 23rd and who, according to some, was born on the 23rd |

I'll have the flags out.......and I'll be wearing a red rose buttonhole. Our club are having 'Red & White' dance on Saturday to mark not only St George's Day, but also the Queen's birthday. There will be flags and red roses galore............ Reg |

That's great - more people should do it - I think personally it should be a Bank Holiday. Gaynor |

my brother-in-law, actually books the day off work and goes to the pub for the day. My father-in-law runs a pub and he actually decorates it with flags |
