ive been here for less than 10 months and even i know you can walk into a petrol pump or any decent stationery shop for one, unless your looking for a very odd size, like that big one i see everyday

Thanks all.....clearly I should get out of my car at the petrol stations!

I am looking for a big, proper flag that could be run up a flag pole as it were, though probably not of the size of the one over Union House!

Quite. Especially close to National Day!

Union Co-op usually has that kind of thing in stock.

The OP is like most foreigners in UAE. Walks around (or drives around) without actually taking anything in !

Hmmm, not very judgmental are you?!

Anyway I've seen plenty of little flags on plastic sticks, plenty of car 'acessories' but I am looking for a large proper sized cloth flag......so if you know please do share.

Dragonmart could be a good place to look.

Or nick one off a mansion in Umm Sequiem / Jumeirah?
