Re: Flying the flag?
indeed - in Uk we can only fly a national flag - thus the Council are taking action re the JR, becase neighbours complained about it!

Re: Flying the flag?
Someone was busy body enough to COMPLAIN!
It was Ā£95 to apply for permission
You even have to ask permission to fly a flag?
People complained his kids were *SHOCK HORROR* Playing O u t s i d e (Oh! the humanity, wont someone think of the children)
**** me. Astonishing. No wonder people are leaving in droves.

We have a Croatian flag outside ours...we live in a triplex and the owners are Croatian and it appeared after Croatia lost
It's funny our little boy has an Argentinian football kit but not an England one, might be something to do with the price of the shirt and shorts, under $15.

Re: Flying the flag?
Well, I am almost embarrassed to admit we are flying the Canadian, BC, US & German flags.
OH wants to add the cross of St. George too.
There's also flags saying 'Open' & 'Welcome' but please can we be forgiven its a campground after all

Re: Flying the flag?
We have a huge Maple Leaf flag that was given to an ex neighbor (an RCMP Officer) by Sheila Copps and then given to us on the day we became Canadian citizens. We'll fly it on Tuesday.
As for more important things, the beer and my power tools are, of course, kept in the basement beside the comfy chair in front of the wide screen TV. How on earth is man meant to relax otherwise?
Naturally, the beer is stored in a small fridge with the Canuck's logo on the door.

We have a Welsh Dragon number plate on the front of our van which we bought in Walmart if that counts. They must have bought a job lot because I've seen a few vehicles around Regina with them on recently.
Our neighbour flies a Canadian flag. In Regina someone has painted their fence half Sask and half Canadian flag which can be seen clearly from the ring road.
