The flag of William of Orange - in celebration his stopping Catholic Monarchs burning Protestants at the stake.
The flag of Northern Ireland - in recognition that the lunatics have taken over the running of the asylum.
The flag of St George - because I was in Eastern Turkey on holiday earlier this year where he was supposed to have been born (or it might have been Coventry).
The Scottish Dragon - for all the Scots who got lost after the last England v Scotland International at Wembley and settled here.
The flag of Canada - a part of our once great Empire that I would have liked to have lived in.
The Welsh Dragon - so that they do not feel left out.
A "straw poll" of my regulars could not determine which flag was the odd one out. It was an equal divide between the Union Flag and the St George's Flag.
