St Georges Day..it's tomorrow!
good lord I totally forgot, how embarrassing a lady just came in to buy a rose for tomorrow and it only twigged when she said we should get tomorrow off work.

Red rose buttonholes at the ready!

Not much sign here either though did see a couple of balloons in a shopon way in this morning, apparently it's a big thing in Spain my sister lives there and she says they give each other red roses or books, they probably get the day off as well they're always having Saints Days off

Our town makes a big thing of the day and ties it into a 'support local shops' theme so I'm looking forward to work-experiencing it. We've had orders from the local MPs for roses that they give out at stations and we're giving buttonholes to the customers tomorrow.

I don't think England makes enough of a fuss of its saint.

I had my St David's Day window up for the whole of March (well ok, after the day it became my '6 nations window!!!)


So get yer flags waiving!!!

there seems to be a bit of a revival round here - a local restaurant is having a special St Georges Day meal (guess whats on the menu) and the school kids are going wearing something red. Hadn't thought of a buttonhole can you believe...
