Nice to see our little fiery friend back again

As long as St George has slain him by midnight.

A rose would have been nice, but a dragon will do. At least they remembered - poor St George, his day usually drifts by virtually unnoticed.

Traditionally it is a red rose for St. George's Day. My grandparents always wore one to celebrate the day, as did many of their peers - and they were quite expensive in those days too.

If that works then St George is a hero!

hissssss!!!! Are you calling me evil, ma'am?! (says the dragon)

I quite like the dragon..but I am just saying.....

Hands off the dragon! He is an old friend now that he is in his third year.

Should have been a knight ! I am sure that is not impossible!

If we are being picky the dragon ought to be dead as it represented evil and St G the goodness that overcame it!

Although rosesarered may not agree

Quartz colour? Pink?

Steady on, there could now be a 'debate 'lasting two days about whether it will be a white or red rose.

What about a nice rose?

He is quite cute!

Well done!

I knew I'd seen the little guy before.

You were right, jingl!

Can't. Not can!

I just tried. No good.

I can trust my head these days and that lot at HQ aren't up to chatting at the mo.

Don't think so. How would we find out? Have to trawl the archives, I suppose...

I thought we had the Dragon for St George's day last year.

Don't think we've ever had anything for St George's Day before, have we?
Must be why they gave us the daffodil for St David's Day so they could save the dragon for now...

The Dragon. Not St David. He probably was.

We had a daffodil for St David's day this year.

How can you tell he's Welsh?

It was probably a Turkish dragon [ as St George was very likely to have been Turkish!] Dragon kebabs anyone?What are we talking about....... I mean, a dragon????? if he slew anything, it was probably a sheep, a fierce one, mind.

Perhaps it was a Welsh dragon he slew/slayed?

It's certainly a Welsh dragon, do we accept that for the patron saint of England?
