Moderator Airhead Posted March 22, 2008 Moderator Share Posted March 22, 2008 Hi everyone, Just perusing a few posts here and there and couldnt help noticing that people posting from places in England are all flying the Union flag, and people from Wales or Scotland are patriotically flying their national flags. Had a look at changing mine to England only to find we dont exist but Wales and Scotland do! Any Ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R1evad Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 Hmmmm............... It would appear , on closer inspection, that the only place the George cross and Estonia are ACTUALLY linked, is on THIS forum As the actual Estonian flag is somewhat different, being like the format of the Dutch and German flags, but in Blue, Black and White! Still, dosn`t stop us being twinned, does it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
