Happy st George day to all my English friends
Have a great day lads and sally.
{Ed001's Note - not just the English mal, he is patron Saint of many countries, including Georgia (which is why we Anglicised the name to that), Russia and a lot, lot more. Oddly not Greece, despite him being Greek. Just thinking we might have a few from those nationalities reading!}

Never knew that Trish
Hi are you buddy?
{Ed001's Note - I used to work with some really idiotic Chelsea headhunters, proper National Front member paid up neo-nazis that would go big on St George's Day. I used to enjoy pointing out all the different nations he was patron saint of and that he was not just Greek, but also an immigrant who fought as a soldier for Rome. They never believed me, it was in the days before the internet was prevalent and they were too stupid to know how to read a book! For some reason, we never got on at all.
I am good mate, enjoying the sunshine and looking forward to the game tonight here. Should get back in time to then watch your game, fingers crossed you win, I really want us to smash Spurs to lift the trophy, rather than because you lost. Normally I wouldn't see any chance of that Palace side beating you, but you have your eyes on bigger fish right now!
How are things with you mate? What's the weather like there? I remember we went to Ireland on holiday and it would rain all the bloody time. We just seemed to end up going to see things and sit in the car looking at them through the rain!}

I’m ok Trish mate, just waiting for news on my dad, who is in the last stages of dementia
The weather over here is shyte especially for kids on Easter holidays
Well done this season, I don’t like excuses you won the pl fair and square
I would just be ecstatic if we won the cup, I never ever thought we would be in with a chance
Regards mate.
{Ed001's Note - so sorry about your dad mate, I just hope they get the UCL to give you something to celebrate.}

Good on you. ed001. I know my history too. he is patron st of many places… I get so frustrated with morons causing havoc with St George flags draped over them. its bloody embarrassing… they are the small minded minority. that sometimes bring disgrace but there is so many of us now who will call them out for what they are… massive ?️?’s.
{Ed001's Note - sadly the problems seem to be getting worse.}
