It’s St George’s Day. But it’s also Saturday, so it’s time for Last Week at Economy Class and Beyond.
It wouldn’t be St Georges’s day without a massive cross of the St George flag (and drunk football fans to the side of me when I shot this photo). Town Hall and Council House, Birmingham.

Next Week
