  Captain JP's log — Authority: 426
  I followed the icon and attending monks from the Georgian Orthodox church down towards the river.

• For England and Georgia!

  
  Captain JP's log — Authority: 426
  One of the strange things about travelling in Georgia was seeing flags that were almost but not quite the same as England, namely white with a red cross. For the two countries have a patron saint in common, namely St. George, here slaying the inevitable dragon high above Tbilisis Freedom Square - or Tavisuplebis ...
