Hmm a better analogy might be sailing up the Clyde with an Edinburgh courtesy flag!

Either you dont understand the Cornish or I don't understand the Scots.

The Scots hate the English, always have done, but I didn't realise that the Cornish hated anybody, unless 'ethnic' hate is a modern disease.

Hate might be a bit heavy, but we certainlty hate the Devonian flag. As I said, it was designed purely to piss us off and it works.

I'm curious. I only heard of the Devonian flag through this forum a little while ago. When was it designed and when was the Cornish one designed? (it's still not a legal ensign /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif)

The Cornish flag has been around for centuries. Allegedly since before the crusades.

The Devon flag was invented in 2003 and was only recognised last year.

Now that's an interesting idea - it makes sense to take the standard of the beaten foe.

Now, let me see, which English King did you beat & where & when was it? And what happened on the return match. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif And you can't count Monmouth as he swopped sides too many times to be considered either English OR Welsh!

harumph dept.

But shouldn't ensigns be worn - not "flown"? I know you aren't an offender in this respect of course - i seem to recall that your ensign is very worn indeed.
