Default Flags

We've just come back from a fabulous weekend in Poole. Brilliant area with beautiful scenery, loads of wealth making it attractive and vibrant

- only spoiled by the holidaymakers .... in Vauxhalls..... with twin England Flags fluttering from the rear windows.

Exclusively Vauxhalls, with shaven headed drivers wearing football shirts, with fat smoking wives and loads of kids.


Those flags look shite....and it looks like a real sub-culture thing.


There should be special areas for the lot of them

early warning twat devices

like using front foglights

so I think they are quite useful

it also helps to pass the time

see how many flag flyers you see before you spot one who doesn't fit the tosser stereotype.....

Get out my town damn tourist!

I suppose there will be some family man types that have been forced to adorn said flags by their children too. Only exception to the rule...

Chav flags..............simple!

Bank holiday = millions of to$$ers on the roads.

One being the wonderful CRV driver I encountered who decided he was going to pull out in front of me into the outside lane with no indication when I was 4 feet away from him doing 80mph! I was in the ATR at the time and left some thick black skid marks and a large horn blast!

When I looked up in my rear view mirror he seemed to find it all really funny.

Some people I just don't understand! (rantover!)

For drivers of exceptionally low mental ability, additional flags are
required."

Yesterday I saw some chav riding a moped with two mini-flags stuck to the top of his helmet.

I'm actually gutted that these people have turned our flag into a chav icon.
