We have a local butchers/deli called Churchills and he's the only one with the flag flying. He only sells British produce which is great.

We shoould be more like the Irish and take pride in our wonderful rich heritage

Happy St Georges day everyone
Lots of love

So now you know how the Welsh have felt for over five and a half centuries since being made part of England :lol:

But, having said that, all praise to St George of Lydda
