Sunday's Peninsula Breakfast Briefing

Sunday's stunning did you know?
Saint George might be hailed as a national hero, but he was actually born – in the 3rd century AD – more than 2,000 miles away in Cappadocia (modern day Turkey). He is thought to have died in Lydda (modern day Israel) in the Roman province of Palestine in AD 303 and his tomb was in Lod, a centre of Christian pilgrimage.

Joke of the day:
A tramp knocked on the door of the inn known as St. George and the Dragon. The landlady answered the door.
The tramp said, "Could you give a poor man something to eat?"
"No," said the woman, slamming the door in his face.
He knocked again and said, "Could I have a few words with George?"
Did you groan? (send us your own favourite joke).
