Morning.
Been looking to buy a large Union Jack so could hang it out of the window unfortunately the price's are ridiculous.
I went on eBay to find a Old one and most start well over a Ton.
Going to walk into Birkenhead this morning so does anyone know any shop's up there what sell the large Flag's.
Thanks

The 5ft X 3ft flags you can get for less than £5 have numerous resellers pricing them at anything up to £50.

Proper Linen 9ft flags are always expensive at around £100 upwards, we had some custom made for us once as it was cheaper than off-the-shelf.

I hope you found something suitable in Birkenhead.

Afternoon.
Thanks for reply I walked into Birkenhead shop to shop I went even walked into outside market just on the off chance there might be some.
I asked in Wilko unfortunately just ended up buying 3 months of dog chew's. My legs wear hurting by then so walked back home.
I haven't seen any Flag's for Sale even in Bromborough maybe they all got sold but I don't see any hanging by me.
I have quite a few flags just Not English 😔
I will check online thoe I hate paying Postage especially when they should be in shop's to buy ?

No flags?

Hang one of these up! The Jubilee clip!

Very reliable, and won't cost more than a couple of quid at Screwfix or Toolstation.

Morning.
There are Plenty of Flag's unfortunately there on line and with Postage Wait would be pointless.

Morning.
I went on the Croft tried a Few Shops then Gave Up.
I have been bidding on a few Large Flags on Ebay am hoping i might get one Cheap after Jubilee.
I did try to buy one from a Car boot in a Church Car Park, Port Sunlight near Bowling Green a few good years or a decade ago..
Seller had a nice Flag Unfortunately he had all his merchandise on it for Sale and didn't want to Empty Table.
Should of gave my money to Priest to buy at end of sale then pick up at a later day was a very nice Flag thoe.
