Mr. Fried (by name and nature? ) apparently phoned Kathy from San Diego yesterday and informed her that now we have opted for the printing process rather than applique (so we can have a nice sky colour) a different fabric is involved and he does not want to proceed until he has sent me a sample of it. I am therefore now awaiting a piece of nylon of some sort from California, while the pound slides rapidly towards parity with the dollar.
I trust you are all appreciative of my attempts to procure the very best quality and value for members of the forum while providing amusement for JackJ and other mystified onlookers, and I am sure it will all be worth it
You may stand down from your flag halliards gentlemen . . . it may be a few days yet.

Sure am, most appreciative, Nick. Just gets better and better.
The words brewery and piss-up come to mind!
If you have a criticism to make I suggest it is directed at Mr. Fried of Prestige Flags, not at myself.
If on the other hand you wish to be summarily deleted from the forum just make one more smart ass remark and your wish will come true. After all, this is a forum for people with real boats, not pretend ones.

(see below)
What does the team think?? Personally I say go with the teal . . .
A bit far behind here, but which is Teal?
I used to use a Teal blue and silver fly for sea Trout and the teal feather looks nothing like any of these colours.

I have today received an example from Prestige of the printing process and am happy to announce that a firm order has now gone in for a flag printed on both sides with the original colours as per Silkie's avatar.
I may come begging for money as sterling has gone through the floor vs the dollar in the interim, but the burgees are finally on their way (I think).

Ian, nice video of the country & western dancers at Millport, was that line dancing, or lime dancing? they look like a bunch of fruit and nut casses.
