Happy World Book day, most of the world, particularly the Catalans.

On the downside, some cretin has also deemed it "copyright day", but let's ignore their cynical snide commentary.

We should have Land of Hope and glory as the English Anthem.
Seeing as there is none (British anthem does not count)

Us English always undersell ourselves. I guess it's what comes of being top for so long

Until there is a Welsh Flag for St David's day I don't feel the need to make a patriotic effort for my other half of nationality

They were appropriately appalled

Eight legs, one body, silk,

So a Roman soldier born in Nicomedia, Turkey. Born of another Roman soldier also born in Turkey. Didn't the Romans have Turkish Soldiers?


He will honor his words; he will definitely carry out his actions. What he promises he will fulfill. He does not care about his bodily self, putting his life and death aside to come forward for another's troubled besiegement. He does not boast about his ability, or shamelessly extol his own virtues. - Sima Qian.

The Romans had soldiers from all over the empire.

St. George was from Turkey.

The dragon was Welsh

The Dragon is probably just a metaphor/term to simplify yet glamourize a story. The beast that's slain could be anyone or number of people who are part of some evil religious cult. One way or another their flame was put out. St George represents a hero whose true story remains not fully known or as is said only known to God which kind of honours all those not remembered for good deeds they have done.
