on the terrace of my marina, these of course were the Companies trade flag,the 5 'crowns' award for the standard of establishment and the Red Dragon.
I would have said something but I need my berth.
Still i suppose we were in another country!, or is that a Principality.Anyway very disapointing especially compared to the display at Madoc Sailing Club...WELL DONE.
Anybody else have a lck of the Union Flag or even St Georges Cross ?

French flags (Cherbourg) were at half mast.

Wasn't sure whether it was in memory of their late departed monarchy (seeing what they were missing) or the Senegal result.

A few Brit boats were dressed overall, or flying St Georges or Union flags from assorted bits of the rigging, but most seemed to be studiously ignoring the whole thing (maybe that's why they were in France in the first place).
