Today is a commemoration the death of the patron saint of England who was a Roman soldier famed for his dragon-slaying.

From dragon-themed parades in Derby to traditional feasts fit for a king, there's something for everyone to enjoy. Coincidently, today also marks the birth and death dates of William Shakespeare. So, don a rose, raise your glass and let's hear it for all things English!
