Doh!....just looked at your posting and OK, I should have followed your link.

BUT...in my defence I was replying to a post much later on in the thread so it's them that should have followed your link .. I'm quite happy with my Union Jack

I fly the Welsh Flag at my house, have a Welsh Dragon in the back right-hand corner window of the car and an American flag in the back left-hand corner. Oh - also have a Welsh Flag at my desk at work so that I can be asked a gazillion times "Wales? Where's that? Is it in England?" and I can respond with the appropriate geography lesson.

Round here too, suppose there are more "well travelled" individuals and expats in the North East.

You love us and you know it! . I have a mini welsh flag hanging from my rear view mirror and a full size union jack license plate that is currently sitting on my dash board because I have never got around to attaching it to the car! (I bought it about 10 years ago in Arizona of all places!)

One of these days I'll run a poll to see exactly how many Taffs there actually are on this site. I didn't think there were THAT many!

I've never been to the Valleys you didn't know about the others when you started your St Davids thread....but they knew about you...mwhahahaha!

actually my dad gave me a Welsh Flag years ago...I'd feel a right idiot flying any type of flag ....maybe if there was already a pole outside I'd do it...or if we had a holiday home or something...I don't really notice very many flags flying around here or maybe I just don't see them any more

I have a licence plate size Union Jack on the front of my car and a small sticker on the rear.
The same size plate on the front of my truck ...... I am amused at one place I go to where the young guys who work there think I'm a cool dude because I have a 'Reebok symbol' on the front.

I don't have a flag anywhere near my house or my car or Mrs.R's van. I stick out like a bulldogs bollocks enough when I open my mouth without drawing further attention to myself, thanks all the same!!!
