According to the Gospel of John (John 1:40-42), Andrew (together with another unnamed disciple) is the first to be called. Later, he tells his brother that he has found the Messiah. The feast of Saint Andrew in the calendar of saints is November 30th in all major Christian denominations. The X-shaped white "St. Andrew's Cross," on which he was executed, against a blue background, forms the national flag of Scotland and has also found its way onto the national flag of the United Kingdom of Great Britain.

Saint ANDREW, to whom this church in Plymouth is dedicated, is one of the twelve apostles whom Jesus Christ called to follow him. But in the biblical accounts he is usually somewhat overshadowed by his far more famous brother: Saint Peter. In the Gospels we find the calling of the two siblings presented in different ways. According to the text of the Gospel of John (John 1:40-42), Andrew is called first (together with another disciple whose name is not mentioned). Later he tells his brother that he has found the Messiah. The feast of Saint Andrew in the calendar of saints is on November 30th in all major Christian denominations. The X-shaped white "St. Andrew's Cross" on which he was executed forms the national flag of Scotland against a blue background and has also found its way into the national flag of the United Kingdom of Great Britain.

The coolest bike cafe in Plymouth: serving breakfast, lunch, origin coffee, nice cakes, and ride snacks. The cafe is adorned with bicycles of many disciplines including some beautiful classic 90s mountain bikes. With plenty of riders milling around at the weekend you can tell this is destination, start, and the mid point of many a social/cafe ride. If you've ridden to the cafe naked (again?! what's wrong with you?) fear not as they sell plenty of clothes and riding kit at the back, as well as tubes and the usual repair stuff that can save a ride. Check it out!

Check out the graveyard and try and find the memorial to the Victorian family that for some reason had a horrible year in 1800s
