Today is St Georges day.
St George is the Patron Saint of England.
This is the St Georges day flag
My English friends will already know this, but for my non English friends here are some typically English things....
A London bus!
A nice cuppa, the cure all!!!
Fish and chips, always anointed with lots of salt and vinegar!
A pint of beer - not one of my favourites: but I can tell you, it's very popular with the men!!!!
And of course, typical English Sunday lunch - roast beef and Yorkshire pudding!
Hope you all enjoyed this!
Have a great weekend!

Hi, love your post! I'm very much in love with your country - have been since I was a girl - and I adore all things British and your pictures just warm my heart!

Spotted Dick and Custard would have gone down well after the roast!

Fish and chips followed by a cup of tea - yes pleased! Proud to be English!

Hey, If you don't want that beer.. pass it over here! Yummmmmmmmmmmmy roast beef too! You have made me hungry for a roast, and its only 9.30 am! Lovely post! Have a happy weekend. suzie xxx
Can I as a Scottish person wish you a happy 'English' day? Is that allowed?
Will my choke on the words or be struck down by a Scottish God of Lightening? To be safe I'll say have a great weekend!!

Happy St Georges day to you!
This Sunday it will be St Mark for us(the Patron Saint of Venice)
Have a good weekend :)
Nothing like a good cup of tea.
You forgot a dish of curry, I was reading this survey which has it that this has become more of a national dish than fish & chips - not in our household it hasn't, we still prefer our chippie.
Happy St Georges Day to you!! I am a huge Anglophile. I would move to the UK in a heartbeat if I did not have to put Bentley in quarantine for six months. Have a great weekend my dear friend!!
Love,
Susan and Bentley

Just left comment on Kelly's post re this. Shock/horror I didn't even know, bad bad lady :o)
Have a lovely one, off to cook me bangers! xx
I have always wanted to ride on a trolley and sit on the upper. I did have fish and chips when we were in London and they don't taste anthing like our here. Is Yorkshire Pudding a sweet pudding like we eat here for dessert? It looks like you drink milk in your tea? Your post just brought all kinds of quetions to mind.
Happy happy St Georges day, sweet Angel. Would love to bite in these frites ... I have to tell you once again how happy I still am with the gorgeous, pretty tea-for-one set. It makes me smile everyday!
Sending a big hug your way for a great weekend, my friend. xoxo
The boys and I have celebrated in tradition ENGLISH style this evening, by having a CHINESE!!!
