The England flag

[Brendan]

Using features of everyday local life and culture to relate to biblical teaching?

Of wait that?s the missionary approach. I always get those two mixed up. It?s been the cause of some spectacular failures in my love life.

I'd prefer to see the Union Jack - then you get rest of country on board for WC

[*Bob*]

Sure, Matthew. I hear they're England-mad north of Carlisle.

No, you go ahead Quids - Matthew is a Liverpool supporter;-)

I cannot work out whether the flags are "can't be asked to take them down after St Georges Day" flags or "We are getting early doors drinking and jeering" flags in prep ffor the World Cup Campiagn.

Confused middle class, liberal.

So much so that Hamish Husband the "spokesperson" for the Tartan Army has called Mars a disgrace for daring to put the St George's Flad on their sweet wrappers during the world cup.

Some people really need to seek help!!

Is anyone else confsed why a Danish beer is suddenly the epitome of all things English? It's just a bit odd frankly. (I suppose they ruled the south east for a while, but a bit before the Corinthian Casuals were formed surely).

Anyone else going to the Kingstonian v Arsenal game atthe end of the summer btw?

[daizie]

Its all a bit Chavvy . No flag waving here .

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

So wanted to buy a razor with the English flag on it - but Tesco Express has sold out.

What the ....!

[ratty]

I always hang one out my window at World Cup time and this year it will be no different.

[Brendan]

A razor?

[Horsebox]

Does a large number of ingerland flags in a neighbourhood have a positive or negative effect on house prices?

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

Yes Brendan, a razor, that well known symbol of English charm and tradition.

[Brendan]

I prefer page 3 and pork pies. Far more charming and traditional.

Council tenants love to do this .

I would guess that it would have a negative effect on house prices .

[woofmarkthedog]

I'm sure everyone feels very welcome

W**F

Unionist pubs aside it really is a cool flag the old union jack. Big, bright happy colours like a tonka toy.

[daizie]

I just wonder if there is a family of pikeys living in that caravan .

Running after a leather ball is fairly silly too. To stop the flagwaving at source you need to ban football. And Brendan, have you ever been a Fenian bast*ard from the Republic? When you drive through certain villages in Nornireland those pretty flags are not at all very welcoming. Bit like Woof's pub.
