to slay or not to slay

April 23rd is St George's Day.  I couldn't find a stamp featuring that particular saint, but I do have a rather miserable looking St Augustine holding a model church

maybe he was wishing he had a dragon to slay

like this colourful creature, a Year of the Dragon stamp from Hong Kong

St Augustine looks certainly tired here!

I got a (sort of) dragon. See it on today's post.

I like the whimsical harlequin dragon.
My dragons are here

I like the style of St. Augustine's stamp.

I like that St. Augustine! It looks like a playing card. What a face he is making! I thought I'd find George and the Dragon, but no. I never thought of the Year of the Dragon!
