Must irk you a tad that you've got to share your patron saint with all those johnny foreigner types eh Pentlad?Happy St Georges Day everyone
Aragon, Catalonia, England, Ethiopia, Georgia, Greece, Palestine, Portugal, and Russia, as well as the cities of Amersfoort, Beirut, Ferrara, Freiburg, Genoa, Ljubljana, and Moscow, not to mention a whole host of of professions, organisations and disease sufferers
Surely - its about time Engerland should set its self apart by getting it's own unique Patron Saint?
Any suggestions?
Saint Becks?, Saint Eddie the Eagle, Saint Tony of Blair?, Saint Wayne?, Saint N'Greavsie?
Om jeg hamrer eller hamres,
ligefuldt så skal der jamres!
ligefuldt så skal der jamres!
Well, Erik I think we all must be very nice people being prepared to share so freely. And the Scots are no different as St Andrew is the patron saint of Scotland, Russia, Romania, Greece, Amalfi, and Luqa in Malta. He was also the patron saint of Prussia. I think Scotland has got its share of disease sufferers too!

I couldn't agree with canU more. There is a real knack in yomping your car from one hump to another and completely flying over the pothole in between. You have to judge the speed immaculately so that you land on the opposite side of the hump so that the car comes down on its springs reasonably gently without gouging the tarmac. Practice and you'll become a finely honed driver quick to spot the running rabbit or the sleepy sheep. Fast driving gets the adrenaline going, keeps you alert, sharpens the reactions. Makes you a better driver. My best time Ellenabeich phone box to Kilninver bridge 8 minutes 4 seconds.......at night. No white van needed

this time I have to agree with Penty
I had a Forces Driving instructor who taught me the main thing was not to hit anyone.Hence I still drive in the middle of the road at night not as Sally would sat because I`m irresponsiblle but more because you can see potholes easier and so far ive missed two or three drunks walking home at night wearing black jumpers and jeans if id been a "responsible"driver I could so easily have run over them

think i may have been one of them "drunks" u refer to, possibly on several occassions. but i can tell you now, that unless you relate "responsible" driving to driving on the verges beside the roads, then yes you would have hit them/me.
i am a responsible drinker/drunk, and especially if i happen to be wearing a black jacket, and blue denim jeans (instead of my usual orange combats and bright yellow t-shirt) i most certainly clear well off the road!! especially with the bloody drivers on our road!!!!!!!!!!
up yours teddy!!
