Flying the flag

[rich_jacko]

One thing I really like about the build-up to the World Cup is seeing all the St George's Flags everywhere - on buildings, cars, you name it. It's such a shame that we don't normally get to see our national flag flying, but it cheers me up whenever I see it. Usually we're so nationally self-deprecating and negative. It makes a really nice change to see so many people taking pride and being supportive of their country - even if it is only because of a football tournament :o)

In other news, I now have double glazing. Marvellous. Just in time for summer...

Y'see, I try to forget the football, forget the hooliganism (which is only a small minority doing their level best to spoil it for the rest of us anyway).

I find it genuinely sad that so many people feel bad about seeing our flag :o(
