Quote from: muddy on Today at 12:12:08 PMI am feeling quite patriotic on this St George's day
I somehow think that patriotism is a fast fading thing.
We are a country that no longer loves itself .

We are certainly a very divided country these days, no doubt enhanced by the Labour party and its activities.

I sincerely hope that it can be restored once they are out, presumably in 2029.

BBC report on drugs for sale from corner shops in the West Midlands .

Birmingham our second city has become a sink hole ruled by tribal  cultures and lawlessness .
Not to mention the continuing rubbish problem ,
No doubt there are nice parts but it sounds dreadful
Apologies to anyone who lives there  !

Quote from: klondike on Today at 07:38:26 AMI brought a flagpole back from the caravan where we flew all sorts of flags including the George Cross. Because of the winds none lasted all that long. I bunged it up in the back yard and it usually flies the George flag with the odd change to a Help For Heroes one near Armistice day and sometimes a  have Union Flag. I just moved it as it would have shaded my new solar gazebo which is almost complete.




I have a Union Jack on my garden fence on a bean stick !

How I wonder do they justify that , how can a flag be a hazard to health and safety ?

We lived in a flat, no room for one that size. We had an Acme wringer for small stuff. Our big items like sheets, tablecloths and bath towels went to a laundry. In a brown paper parcel.  I remember the coloured stitches used as laundry marks.
