Well I woke up at about 9am and started getting ready for the big day! Yes, it was St Georges Day and a day that means a lot to me.So much so, my fiancé and I decided to marry on this wonderful Day! I got ready in my wedding clobber which consisted of a dark suit with a white shirt and red cravat. English flag cufflinks completing the outfit!My Best man and his wife took me to the church in a car covered in Red and White. While there, at the Church, I greeted the guests but had to pop into the church to talk to the vicar Marilyn. She pointed out the scarf (I don’t know the technical name but the white scarf with a cross at the end that they wear). She had chosen a pure white one with a red cross at the end! Time went by and everyone came into the church, most wearing a token “English” themed item of clothing! Then the Bride turned up with the bridesmaids…. In an English BLACK TAXI! The cab was covered in England flags! The wife to be and her bridesmaids dressed to go with the day… White for the bride, Red for the bridesmaids. The ceremony was absolutely 1st class! Our wonderful vicar didn’t drag on about religion… She talked about St George!! And was great. We had to choose hymns but one of which we were allowed wasn’t a hymn. It was “Land of Hope and Glory”!!! Then off to the meal which consisted of Pie and Mash with either Likka (I’m a London boy!) or Gravy.

Each table had a name of course……….. They were…
Tower of London (Top Table), Windsor, Upnor, Rochester, Leeds, and 5 other castles (Sorry, I forgot what castles we called them after.

The whole place was covered in English.. well, EVERYTHING! Flags, bunting, banners and so forth. The whole day was Full of English Pride and Now it is also our wedding Anniversary!! St Georges day also marked these great moments for me…

While having a scan, we found out we were going to have a son (St Georges Day 2003) My Daughter was Christened (St Georges Day 2006)

St Georges day! I Love it!

If you guys are interested, I will put some pictures of the wedding on the net and send you a link?

Kind regards and all the Best

St. George's Society of Palm Beach had a nice social gathering last Friday the 25th to celebrate St. George's Day. The weather was perfect as we were outside at the Sailfish Club of Palm Beach. Members were given St. George's flag lapel pins. A great time was had by all.

Haelsa My Friends,

We had a gret evening and a hog roast, morris men, stalls,lucky dip, and our ENGLISH pub quiz AND free drinks on the house - brilliant.

How did your quiz go- did anyone get all the questions right?
