Flag iris The name "flag" is from the middle English word "flagge," meaning rush or reed. Iris flowers are said to symbolize power, with the three parts representing wisdom, faith and courage.  ap flad iris blue by Kate Ferris, on Flickr and how I feel about Flickr's sulk this morning!  ap flag iris by Kate Ferris, on Flickr |

Went to the garden centre. Forgot my camera. This is why you need a phone with a decent camera. |

I'm so behind the times, I suspect a new mobile would flummox me. Guess I'd need a contract etc and simply can't be bothered. |

You have a point about how complex they can be but much of the smart bit can be avoided or ignored / turned off / have apps hidden and most if not all sim only contracts can do at least 4G so will work with any modern phone. I am not up with android but any iPhone from the past five years will have at least two lenses thus avoiding digital zoom which kills image quality and can be bought from under £100 un tied to a net work.

It has a decent camera. She pays £5 per month on a no contract sim with unlimited mins and texts and 4GB of data. Admittedly I had to help her set it up. She has had iPhones for a while now though. Anyway, just waiting for a train to take us into Siena. I’m sure I’ll find some flags to take some photos of. |

I've not got much actually labelled "flag" but there must be lots of pictures with a flag in there somewhere. Can't remember offhand if this was posted on APForum - the other flag pictures have been.  DSCF2003.jpg by Pete, on Flickr |

Wearing your flag as a T Shirt. It would also fit in with The American thread in the lounge. He probably didn't need to wear the flag to let everyone know.  I wonder where he was from? by Nigel G, on Flickr |
