I celebrate it every year without fail having left my homeland. It is celebrated notably in Patagonia in Argentina and most countries around the world that have Welsh Societies. There are large Welsh Contingents in several states of USA particularly Philadelphia. A number of US Presidents have been Welsh or of Welsh descent.

Erm I'd have to say no. I'm from Scotland and I celebrate St. Andrew's Day because he's my patron saint. St. David isn't.

I guess only Welsh people who have moved away. Not like St Patrick's day. We should change this!

Yes. We mark it with an appropriate party or dinner party and I wear my daffodil brooch, although nobody around here knows what a daffodil is like anyway. You know what they say: "Cymro goreu yw Cymro oddicartre" (the best Welshman is the Welshman abroad).
