I am glad to be British because

Until you get round to sewing on the patch, then it would be optional, yes.

RQ you are in the supernatural bit, where weird things happen,and female vicars run around screaming, you need a flag all of your own!

So that's two more to add to the union flag rosequartz

Glad there is so much agreement about being glad to being British.

As someone has said, I expect if we lived elsewhere, we may be quite glad to live there too.
But Britain does seem to have much to be glad about.

A patch centrepiece, Can it be optional?

I'm in the independent bit, neither England nor Wales

Thank you

But it is not a spare patch, it is a centrepiece!

That's what people tell you when they give you a tiny present.

Or even a bit on the side.

OK, I'll design a new one.

Good things come in little packages ,think diamonds , no, think rubies

Nope, Big England, beyond little Wales.

So sorry,wrong rose

But are you not in little England beyond Wales

That's funny, I have a few union flags but no Welsh flag.

Rosequartz , who would want to be a spare patch

Free flags for all! That could be the rallying cry for some new age type leader couldn't it? I think that could be a winner.

Perhaps we could have something like the Australian flag, only it could be a Welsh dragon with a Union Jack in the corner.

I'll get my sketch pad out tomorrow

I do have a few Welsh flags but not one union flag , I do not put my Welsh flag in the garden though

They don't always value what they have always had, either. An elected parliament, free speech, impartial justice, all taken for granted.

I think being a spare patch stitched on is an insult
Oh, sorry, I was just trying to be helpful and save some money at the same time. I didn't mean it to be insulting.
It would be a very nice patch, a flag within a flag perhaps.

Who knows - if everyone were issued with a free flag, perhaps they would be more inclined to use them? Perhaps not, though, people don't always value what they have not paid for.

And that we say 'so sorry' when some idiot walks into us
Yes, why do we do that?

I like the changing seasons, although I am less keen on some than others.
Deciduous trees and the autumn colours, even though they make a mess when the leaves drop.

But it would be very expensive to replace all flags in public places with a completely new set - our taxes would probably go up to pay for them.
