Union Jack flag needed please.

finbarrk

Anyone know where I could buy or borrow one of these? It's needed for a fancy dress parade on Sunday. I had one bought on ebay but it hasn't arrived yet.

It was nice knowing you.

Try the Army Surplus store on lower Cecil street across from where the old ESB building used to be.

Actually check out the Argos catalogue... remember seeing a union jack beach towel in it!!

Did you know the Union Jack is only 1/3 English? The other thirds are Scottish and Irish and as far as I recall it was first flown in Dublin. So think about this before you get the zippo out, and no, I'm not a Brit.

True and what age are people that they can get worked over a flag?

Can't imagine you'll get one unless Argos has those towels.

The Union Jack has nothing to do with this country and is not associated with it.

Sorry meant to reply to TRAD

The OP was looking for a flag, not for faux-political diatribe. The next person who drags this thread off topic gets banned.

If there are any hotels / international tourist spots around just nick one from there (do tourists go to limerick though?)

losthorizon infracted and banned for two weeks for incitement to hatred and ignoring repeated warnings on-thread.

@ finbarrk, if you can let us know when you've managed to find a flag, I'll lock this thread.

There's a guy in Bunratty called Padraig Kennedy, his website is allflags.ie. pm me for his mobile if it's badly needed in a rush, he's a sound guy.
