March 1st is a red letter day - not only my birthday (yep) but, more importantly for the world at large, St David's Day. 'Wie bitte?' I hear you all asking. Keep calm. St David is the patron saint of Wales, and March 1st is his very own day.
The UK is exactly that - a United Kingdom, of England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. It's like a family - none of the members really like each other but they know that when push comes to shove they will defend each other to the death.
My family comes from Wales, although South rather than North so really only Welsh-ish. Not Welsh-speaking and not mad on Welsh cakes and lamb.
On St David's Day patriots will be wearing a daffodil (or for gentlemen traditionally a leek, how strange), and taking part in Eisteddfods - festivals of poetry and song.
