I hear that 'Thanksgiving' is beginning to be celebrated in the UK (gawd knows why), so maybe the Brits are now following the US idea of flag-flying as well. I have a big Union Flag here, which is often draped beside the TV set during important Rugby matches!Cro Magnonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06840670227576695352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5472301814571448308.post-15533710665317336492017-11-26T01:16:41.099+00:002017-11-26T01:16:41.099+00:00Bollocks!Bollocks!Yorkshire Puddinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04601018936761477673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5472301814571448308.post-77289152542250120752017-11-26T01:15:23.770+00:002017-11-26T01:15:23.770+00:00I am so proud to be British that my underpants hav...I am so proud to be British that my underpants have a Union Jack design.

I see quite a few and my brother has a flag pole and flies whatever flag he wants, and sometimes if he has visitors from the US he flies the Stars and Stripes. He is pretty much a salt of the earth type person who wouldn't harm a fly and helps everyone who comes his way so I guess it is best not to read too much into it.

I don't suppose that anyone in our village knew the significance (incuding those from the UK) but so what. They probably thought it was for some rugby game. Hope nothing happens in the near future as it is where our lit up Xmas tree goes next week end.pottyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06834163803780455512noreply@blogger.com
