Theres a lot of flag hate on here. Lets try and redress the balance.
Anyones that you spotted that you liked, thought were amusing, cleverly created?

Philip Schofield is my Bitch

Plus wee picture of a gagged face!!



I heart Sausage

[LostRiot]

The 1 <3 sausages flag from shangri la was at blur on sunday.

I also really liked the one that looked like the peace flag with the rainbow, but just said PACE

But I hate flags at stages with a passion.

I think the festival should not ban them (that would be silly) but just discourage people from taking them to stages.

I don't mind the odd one or two but there were too many this year. anyway that is digressing the ones i liked were

I heart sausages, which was quite near me at madness (i think)
The Phillip Schofield one
and the Peckham/Kilburn One - I tried to find them after I saw them ahead of me (again I think at Madness) but they must have collapsed it as I couldn't find them and wanted to meet others from Kilburn

This was not a flag as such but I did like the massive cartoony picture of Rolf that someone had at his set.

i like flags, but i dont go to the front of any stage, i dont like how crowded it is/hard to get in or out, so for me they dont bother me

and at campsites, they're brilliant, extremely useful 'oh yea theres the flag, our tents by that'

'Delilah is a slag' during TJ.

The inflatable donkey, having a little dance to Rolf Harris and later seen at Quo and Madness. That donkey had taste.

The surfer dude also seemed to have similar taste.

The pigeon on a stick that managed to get between the camera an N.E.R.D, wrong, but amusing.

Although I take peoples point about the flags. At 5 ft 2 I never have and never will see the stage, so it's quite nice to have something to look at other than the sweaty back of the bloke in front. No offence to blokes with sweaty backs it's not your fault I'm a short-arse

The GodFather one at the back of Rolf...the picture is of Sir Micheal of Eavis!

OMG. I spent the whole festival (I may be exaggerating a bit there) trying to work out who it was.
In the end I decided it was the flag owners grandad and thought - "Isn't that sweet!"

Silly me

Anyhow - "Blunto Fan club" flag was good

"Glastonbury welcomes Spanial Tap".

Saw the same two hot blondes several times throughout the weekend carrying a small wooden sign with 'YEASTY CLUNGE' on it. Completey outdone by the 20 ft flag at the front of the Prodigy crowd with CLUNGE on it. Even picked it out on the tv highlights. Awesome.

A bloke next to me before Madness was waving his flag manically. It was then I came up the idea of a flag next year. I actually stopped him to tell him, and he seemed offended.

The plan is a massive pole with a net on the end, and a flag of Michael Jackson saying the phrase "Fishing for kids", and you dip it into the crowd now and again.

It was funny in my head, and a crowd mover

Yep saw that a couple of times.

Also there was the US flag which was depressingly slow moving in front of me in the queue to get into Pussy Parlour Thursday evening when all the cnuts were pushing in at the front. I had a bizarre conversation with some chap next to me in the queue. He thought it was awful that some people burnt flags - and this point came about because the chap with the American flag had held it next to a flood light. I pointed out that if he had an American flag he was probably pro-US and wouldn't want to burn it. Oh yeah..!

Introduced myself to a chap with a Mr Men flag at Madness.. it had the eFester logo in the corner so I knew he was a good bloke. Something.. scorpion... was his board name.. forgotten it already (sieve brain!).

I LOVE DUNSTABLE!

Now, I've been to Dunstable and there's little to love about it but you've got to love the passion.
