Flying the flag ??

Well, do you fly or even display a flag - if so what and where ???

I have a union jack and an ulster flag outside the house and a Hawaii state and irish rugby flag stickers on my pc at work

Thanks to the conferderate flag thread for the idea

I have an England flag sticker on the back of my car. I want one of those historic American flags with the union jack in the corner instead of the stars to hang outside the house but haven't got round to it yet.

I had a euro GB sticker on the back of my old van, was asked if i came from Green Bay (Wisconsin). They just dont get the concept of country codes over here.

We have a Welsh flag outside the house

and a Cymru bumper sticker on the van

. Not bad considering hubby is a Londoner! The bumper sticker is the only way I can find my van in a parking lot!

I have the St George's cross license plate on the front of my car.
Down here people think its some variation of the Alabama state flag!
When I tell them its the English flag, they look all confused.
