AIBU to ask where our leek, daffodil, dragon or other emoticons are?

It is St David's Day on Sunday.
I went into a local shop (in Wales) this morning and found a huge rack of St Patrick's Day cards confused but no St David's day cards.

Personally, I wouldn't send any cards for Saints' days, but I just wondered whether the Welsh are the poor relations in this Kingdom.

Hurray - better remember to use it now! Thank you GN

Cardiau Dydd Dewi Sant - well, I didn't want one, I just wondered why there was a whole rack of St Patrick's Day cards in our local shop!

For my Welsh ancestors!

Yep. St George that one.

Actually, the chicken was an extremely good idea. Excellent in fact. Obviously much needed. And will soon be well used.

We've had a sort of dragon as well. Or was that for St George?

JessM Fri 27-Feb-15 17:29:30

Cardiau Dydd Dewi Sant? Why?

Ana Fri 27-Feb-15 17:24:07

Not blaming you jingl. There was something rather odd about the speedy response, considering how long people had to wait for the moon!

jinglbellsfrocks Fri 27-Feb-15 17:20:30

It's not my fault. I asked for a roast dinner. I reckon they had that chicken in a drawer somewhere to have come up with it so quickly.

shysal Fri 27-Feb-15 17:19:04

We have had a daffodil in the past, so don't panic! Wait until Sunday.
