    The first that I've heard of it - Happy St. George's Day to you and your fantastic country, GBFC!

    Since I have some Engish in me I guess I can celebrate; how is it traditionally done?

    It is mostly not observed in the UK, however I use it as an excuss to kiss as many girls as I can while wishing them "Happy St. George's day". I also try to drag people down the pub at lunch!

    On Sunday there will be parades around England to celebrate with lots of marching bands and church services.

    Had to look that up! No, it is a genuine celebration, although not a national holiday, but I love the idea.
