An X is the symbol of St Andrew, which is why the Scottish flag has the X-shaped cross on it. He is also the patron saint of Romania, Greece, Russia, Ukraine and Poland. Today is also National Computer Security Day, which started in 1988 to raise awareness about cyber security issues. So a good day perhaps to check your online security, and go to a ceilidh.
