We, in Australia enjoy a day off for the kings birthday. Happens to be near my birthday too, Which is nice/

"Every day is bloody England day ya daft foreign bloody simpletons." This is what I shout to the Aussies in response to them asking about our national day. Usually on my way to having a nice cup of tea, a fry up and a listen to the Smiths, The Cure and The Jam* before settling down to a rousing...

Can we pick a day when we can all celebrate not having a national day?? Perhaps April the 23rd would suffice?

So proud of being English but hate so much about the place. I guess it's about harking back to a time that never really existed.

Watching that video makes me really wonder why it's not so popular. St Paddy's is all about dressing up and getting drunk. St Georges day gets dressing up and fighting with he police. What fun!

Yes, without the irony I suppose.

This is the really weird stuff. Perhaps I miss it but if you believe these kinds of posts there are people everywhere complaining about people saying they are English. How do you get yourself in this kind of quandary when the evidence around you points in a different direction. Or have I...

The whole 'these days' thing confuses me too. When were the halcyon days he is wishing to hark back to, I don't remember any St Georges day celebrations at school or beyond, and I spend my late teens and 20s looking for any excuse for a party. Fwiw, the whole Australia day thing is big over...

I think we need a poll?

What I always find interesting about these fellas (apart from their spelling) is their lack of gumption. Surely both pride and St paddy's day celebrations are organised by someone. Instead of making a video complaining about the lack of recognition for something he feels is so important, why...

If Australia and Ireland do theirs so much better can't we just steal them? All thus bloody woke, doing our own stuff is not what the English empire was built on!!
