Happy St George's day!

You'd be welcome, on the IoM.

You'd be welcome, on the IoM.

I'd be safe from you deviants.

No, always remember, on the IoM, no one can hear you scream.

I heard that the majority of Manx have an irrational fear and hatred of scousers and Libpool?

If you were this close, you too would be scared.

How is London today?

19dg, clear blue skies and the only bin dippers I can see are cockneys

The reality of George is lost in fable. He was likely a Roman soldier in or around Turkey in the early Christian period. He was accepted as England's patron saint around the time of the crusades but is also patron saint of many other places. He was "decanonised" along with the equally mysterious St Christopher, by Pope Paul VI.

OK maybe, or maybe not, he existed ... but the dragon thing?

whatever,
p.o.e.t.s day im going riding.

I saw a bloke with his top off wearing an england flag as a cape walking over westminster bridge. There was a bagpiper ahead of him, with lots of tourists photographing him. No-one was photographing the red-skined-england-flag-wearing chap

OK maybe, or maybe not, he existed ... but the dragon thing?

I've only been to Turkey once and that was a long time ago but MrsO was born there and it could be that there are dragons there.

missed opportunity to make mrs o's mum : dragon connection there clive.

if you fancied doing the "northern mother in law" jokes.

MrsO's mother was Nicaraguan and sadly died a year before we were married and so I never had a mother-in-law. She was most certainly not northern.

sorry clive. didn't mean to be rude.
cheeks burning with shame

:o))

I'm going to shave my head, take off my shirt, drink lots of belgian lager, and throw garden furniture at foreigners.

Since when have you taken to wearing shirts?

Oh, and the moustache doesn't count.

Nonsense, Coca-Cola was originally orange and called Sunny Delight, based on the patriarchal sun-god Ra.

Would that be Sun-Ra, one of my personal gods?

No but he wears green, from a Finnish pagan myth I think. The reindeer eat Fly Agarics (whose wee the reindeer herders allegedly drank in order to have visions) and that's what makes em 'fly'.

He actually wears red even in Finland - he's the old European midwinter wildman, and in midwinter the Sami reindeer herders slaughter the oldest reindeer who aren't going to make it through winter. So Santa is wearing a freshly-prepared reindeer skin, bloody-side out, and neatly turned back at the cuffs to reveal the furry lining... True fact.
The reindeer are keen on the fly algrics too, but their livers are a bit hardier than ours. So the Sami shamen would let the reindeer eat them then drink their piss to get a healthier, filtered version with plenty of psychoactive goodness left in it but a bit less harsh on the system.
