Let’s Get PatrioticPosted: April 22nd, 2009 | Author: admin | Filed under: Printed Mugs | Tags: Ceramic Mugs |Tomorrow is England’s national day, so I will wish you a happy St George’s day in advance. Unfortunately people are more likely to celebrate St Patrick’s Day, rather then St George’s day by doing what they know best - getting drunk.
However everyone in the Giftselection office will be drinking out of their promotional St George mugs, to mark the occasion properly! Promotional mugs that are made in England are something of a rarity, so the St George ceramic mug is something of a revelation.
Despite St George being our national patron St, it is unlikely that he ever even visited England. It’s even more unlikely that he even slayed any dragons! The legendry St George was apparently a heroic Roman solder, who protested against the Roman’s torture of Christians. In the end the Roman’s didn’t appreciate his empathy, and he died for revolutionary liberal beliefs.
