...lol, the lady looks as though she doesn't really know what's going on (how very English). Are you going to post for Saint Andrew, Saint David, and Saint Tamanend? What I mean to ask is, are you celebrating a person or a nation?
Huzzah for England? You may say so, and therefore balance of praise will be maintained; your praise will fall in place of mine. I love my country, but do believe that patriotism - or rather chauvinism - is the last refuge of the scoundrel.
Do you like the stories behind the saints? There, I can easily relate :)

Yes, I do! I've always been interested in the people in history, rather than the deadly-dull dates and facts.
I've never heard of him -- and apparantly neither has Wikipedia. Perhaps he's the patron saint of tamarinds? ;-P
