St georges day

It's only 5 hours to quitting time in LA, which means pints of Hobgoblin. As I finish my last cup of coffee for the day, I'm taking this time to reflect on Bill Shakespeare.

"When we are born we cry that we are come.. to this great stage of fools."
So sayeth The Bard.

April 23rd, 1564 was the day William Shakespeare was born.

April 23rd, 1616 was the day William Shakespeare was said to "shuffle off this mortal coil".

Somehow though, it's St George's Day in England! Happy St George's Day!

As long as there is some English Ale at the end of the day, I don't care what you call it.

 

You're playing catchup.

Spitfire followed by a Hobgoblin and contemplating an Old Speckled Hen shortly.

 

Yes, cursed work. On the other hand, when you are all tucked in and snoozing into the morning, I'll still be going here.

 

la time is vancouver time. i just had 3 and a half pint for lunch and now i'm a little giggly. never surrender!

 

I hope the half pint was nicked from someone else and not simply abandoned midway through...

 

i took a pitcher from the table next to me. they had not much left

Or some of us have just got in from town and still drinking bottles of beer... Ah the joy of not being an OAP

 

Never surrender

 

Indeed! On to pints of Jamesons!
