    In 585 England was divided into 7 separate Kingdoms all ruled by separate Germanic Kings. Some 200,000 Angles, Saxons and Jutes (from Jutland) were now living in England and the majority of British males have been killed or have fled to Wales, Scotland or Cornwall. The new Germanic tribes spend much of their time fighting between themselves.

    I really don't see the problem either. I don't personally bother with st patricks day but why should I stop others from enjoying themselves? Lets face it people aren't from the country of 'saturday night' either but nobody gets upset when you go out and get pissed at the weekend
