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...

I grew up in a town where the flag was a constant feature on top of the church in the park down the road, so I'm quite attached to it.
