St. George's Day

Why is it this country is almost embarrassed to be patriotic? This picture was of a stunt by Umbro to hang their England football shirts out in Carnaby Street as bunting for St. George's day.
When I checked the next day's papers (on St. George's Day) I was amazed by the almost total lack of coverage for what is supposed to be our National day. Personally I'm in favour of any excuse for a celebration, so feel sad for our country that it's an opportunity missed. Come on England, let's celebrate St. George's day - maybe then I'll get a picture used...
