Saint George's Day

BCB Bradford

I was in the tourist office in Bradford city centre when these two young ladies were looking for a quote about St George's Day. They are from BCB - Bradford Community Broadcasting, I gave them a quote and then asked if I could photograph them. They kindly said yes and here they are Dee and Kat.

April 23rd is St George's Day (Patron Saint of England)  It is the church festival of St. George, regarded as England’s national day (although not an official bank holiday).

  1. It's great to learn something new! I did not know about St. George's Day.

  2. I don't get that. Why isn't today a bank holiday? It's such an important occasion.

    Thanks for visiting Norwich Daily Photo and leaving your comment. Come back tomorrow!
