IT was nice seeing the St George's Day parade on Sunday.

It was also very impressive that the senior bandsmen were taking it so seriously, leading by example hoping it would rub off on the children.

The whole of York should get together and put the flags out. If the Irish, Scottish and Welsh can put on a good show, so should we English.
