A bit further than that matey.
In fact I could say the other side of the globe. Two ex-colleagues are in Australia. Living the dream

Ahh..what I meant was that not all British are English...not meaning English abroad
Referring to Great Britain itself rather than the Commonwealth as a lot of other nations get the impression that the British means just the English
This St George thing is 'Dragon on' a bit

Ha none taken mate.
Anyway, I'm half Irish so I can celebrate St Paddys too.
Along with most of England!

Oh, I forgot St. George's Day! Here in the Colonies, you never see anything about St George - St. Patrick's Day gets all the publicicty. Maybe because the Irish are .... a little louder and more boisterous....specially after a pub visit. Maybe I can get away with that because my mother's side of the family has some Irish roots.
Anyway, Easter Greetings and a belated Happy St. George's Day!
