Everybody have leek pie for supper.
St David's Day? I will have to Google that.
The first fifteen years of my carrer with PennDOT our office was in St David's, PA. It was a little ways down the road from the St David's station on the PRR Main Line aka as Amtrak Harrisburg Line.

Thanks David!
Where I live in suburban Philadelphia in Delaware and Montgomery Counties particularly along the PRR Main Line we have many towns named after of have their names derived from places in Wales. Some examples: Crum Lynne, Llanerch, Radnor, Bryn Mawr.

		My father was always frustrated about all the fuss over St Patrick while ignoring David, Andrew and George.
My own favorite is St Botolph.
