[norainplease]

ahhhh, that's GENIUS! i might just do this....thanks! (plus i'm visiting the parental homes this weekend so might even be able to blag some materials.....)

Ohh.

I brought my flag the other day. Should arrive on Monday. I'm going to have a look now for some flag designs now. Some of these flags are truly amazing. I'm impressed with the hard work everyone has put in.

Ive finished mine too but I dont know how to get the pic on here....???

Not sure what Mr.Flag '08 is going to be as yet as it's something I generally get around to doing during the weekend before Glasto ... but having been rummaging through piccies various for something else just now, say hello to Mr.Flag '07 in all his glory on the damp(ish) day before setting off and subsequently getting p*ssed on for 5 whole days virtually non-stop

PS: Rather like Mr.Cuneo and his mouse, there's always a Dancing Man lurking somewhere on Mr.Flag but no prizes for spotting him as he's usually very obvious, although he is very small on the '07 flag.

I'm now highly tempted to get myself one of these flag things. If the telescopic poles are only a metre long, I'll just hook it up to my rucksack. I'm just paranoid about National Express telling me I have too much baggage.

Nice, how did you do it? Did you use iron on transfers?

Has anyone seen the film by Clint Eastwood "Flags of our Fathers" depicting the iconic American WWII photograph:

Well this was 0tter camp back in 2004

OK so I'm grasping at straws.

Meep.

......I've just this evening tried to put a permanent outline using "DYLON FABRIC PAINTING PEN" and it has bleed like f**K. Anyone else planning the same I suggest best avoid that method!

I'm off to a festival in the morning so will have to use as it is and only Godsend is that when 20 odd foot in the air it don't look so bad. I will try & paint in for next festival end of this month so very much still "Work In Progress" until I have it right for Glasto!

[talullah]

Quality!

Also very nice! Is it sewn or painted? What's the writing going to be or is it a secret?

[mikeb]
