AFAIK it is just the saint day of St. George – the patron saint of England (he of dragon slaying fame!). Some info about St. George here: http://www.innotts.co.uk/asperges/george.html By coincidence, April 23rd is also the birthday of one of the greatest ever Englishmen, William Shakespeare!

Drink lots of Scotch Whisky, Scottish beer, watch Braveheart, and moan about the overspend on the Scottish Parliament Building. Just joking, I'm sure you'll appreciate a little friendly cross border craic.
