    I'll be more than happy to raise a glass to him at the St Georges Day beer festival here. Within falling over distance of home.

    Hey man, I was working off of the top of my head.
    Maybe the lack of celebration of Turkish bloke who definitely never actually came to England day is because the English can't relate to him. Make Ian Botham's birthday the national day and I think more people would celebrate it.

    Probably with a beer, a spliff, watching some cricket and then going for a long walk.

    Would that be like St Patrick's day for the the bloke who never went to Ireland [apparently], and cleared the land of snakes that never existed there either?
