I've got a brother called Andrew, an uncle, a cousin, father, grandfather - they seemed to like the name in our family. :-)

I think he's the patron saint of altar boys, as well.
We used to have a medal thing you wore around your neck, with a red cord.
Could well be wrong, I wasn't very pious. Just in it for fun.

Realistically speaking, do these so called Saints mean anything to anybody? barring in mind that the stories of them are as fanciful as the Bible.

You believe anything grown-ups tell you when you're 6, ratter.

Well thank you kindly, madam.

I shall remember to say hello on St Susan's day.

St Susan's day has a nice ring to it. A - check the FB link that I sent to you, it's old photographs of the Fair (fekkin freezing) City.

Slàinte mhath. Good health to all Scots wherever you are in the world. Raise a glass to St. Andrew. Because of him it is a public holiday in Angus.

Have a flaming drambuie on me....

when we were at Uni, the freshman tradition on St A's day was to wet on lips, and drink a large schooner of Drambuie lit, in one, letting the flame slide down the glass. If you broke it off, then you risked a flare back. One colleague of mine, a Brummie medic, walked around with a third degree burn on his snozz for the rest of the session.........
