Obviously the parade was a good inspiration even for Alford. As St. George is my patron saint, I use to celebrate this day of course also with this march and finally drinking (the memory of) those regiments which have or had it as their regimental day.

You wouldn't think a Norwegian band was playing this, I've seen them on parade, their drummers are perfect.
