Maggie: St George's Day celebration

Il y a les Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer, et maintenant il y a les Trois-Maris-de-Saint-George.

How amusing to see three Frenchmen who are married to three Americans, and were celebrating England's patron saint, St George, at a BCA (British Cultural Association) event.

Mary-Catherine's Michel L, Maggie's Serge P, and Cerese's Nicolas C

Katharine writes:  Good ol' St George needs a better PR manager.  One person commented that
they've always loved the Swiss flag (white cross on red background), and another said they
admired the Danes for their devotion to their flag (red cross on white background, as per St George, but a different cross design).   St George's Day is April 23, also Shakespeare's Day (birth/death - 1564 - 1616).
