He was Roman, from Lebanon and fictional but don't let that get in the way of a good story.

Anyway, if Labour win we'll all get today off 🙂

It's Sunday. You've already got a day off. 🙂

Was the dragon ethically sourced?

Hospitality. 🙁

But I like looking after others! 🙂

That was the dragon. He beat it to death with a load of snakes, or something like that.

Definitely not fictional, completely true. If you don't believe it, you can visit the site where he killed the dragon in Oxfordshire, at Uffington:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dragon_Hill,_Uffington

The grass doesn't grow where the dragon's blood flowed out, I've seen it for myself. True fact.

If we get the Corbyn days off (if - who am I kidding!) could we shuffle them around a bit - they are at rubbish times of year. Who wants 2 more days off in March?

Me. I will take days off any time they're offered. If you don't want them I'll safely dispose of yours?

Hands off - I didn't say I didn't want them that much! Can't we have dusty trail day. I'll happily 'slay a trail' instead of a Dragon!

We should have a referendum on when they should be.

Of course not - hang your Cross of St George on your Sky dish and celebrate with pride! 🙂

The racism is optional, so crack on.

Only if you have a traditional Sunday lunchtime pint and as you clearly have you'll be fine!

Greek origin, and debatable where he was born but Turkey, Palestine, somewhere over there anyway where the stereotype English St George faithful would just consider "foreigners, possible terrorists".

My birthday. I cycled to Roots cafe on the Fylde with some buddies. We stopped for a pint in the sun on the way home.

As a gay dragon I find that offensive too.

I helped make a dragon for the scouts St George's Day parade - flashing eyes, smoke and roaring (I was amused to overhear a couple of people commenting "apparently it's controlled from a mobile phone", to which I could reply "yes, this one"). I'll post some pics/video when I've edited out the kids.

I'm not sure what sexuality (or even gender) our dragon is.
