St George is the patron of England and as he died on 23th of April 303 it's St George's Day today in all countries St George is the patron of. In London a great English tradition had it's revival with a parade through the City. St George, riding on a horse, was accompanied by the King and his daughter, a lamb on a little cart and some hundred soldiers. According to the website of the St George's Pageant this hadn't taken place since 1585. The poor horses seemed to be a bit nervous as lots of people stood very close around them when they reached St Paul's Cathedral and stopped there for a while. Let alone the tiny lamb on the cart.This morning the second part of a ITV Channel 4 television series called Britain's Next Boss was recorded and I was able to be part of the audience. It was quite fun as the TV presenter, the studio manager and the experts were very amicable and acted very professionally. In tonight's show, the three experts concentrate on communication skills and judgement of the three candidates - and were all very much in favour of the Liberal Democrat's candidate, Nick Clegg. Let's see if I can spot me when the show starts in a couple of minutes. Have to stop blogging now (complementary remark a day later, you can see us all from the back only. I'm the third from left in the second row).
