| This is indeed a story going around .. it would be nice to know if it was true.. *I'd* like to see him honoured - it was a lovely design - unique to have the nation defined on the flag, I believe. Maybe those Olive Branches could be retained on a new flag - if there is a federated soln. ? One thing that REALLY irritated me whose the planned flag - if there had been a YES, YES to Annan.. The average layman wouldn't have known if it was Columbian, Romanian or whatever... |
