Nick just order the sodding things with whatever you think is best.

PS I think the sky should be pink

Edit - in the second one sea and sky look too similar so first one.
Or is it better the other way round?

I just want a little flag, I'll have what ever you decide.

I'm with you one is as bad as the other.

No chance it will be in my Xmas stocking then?

Would it be possible to seek another manufacturer who had a more comprehensive palette.

Unlikely as my credit card has no doubt been debited for a wodge of cash . . . and anyway Prestige were the best combination of quality / price but Mr. Fried now says he can print them, which will be better all round I reckon - so we will go with the original turquoise as per Silkie's avatar then



It'll be better than TOP's bl00dy mouse anyway . . .

I don't like the Teal sky, though I can see the need for contrast.

Looking at their colour range, and thinking of Scotland, maybe the Silver Grey is more appropriate for the sky!!!

More seriously, I think that I would prefer a Teal sea, and Mid Blue sky.

Edit - too late with my post - I now see Nick's post that they will be printed. Hope Mr Fried knows that it rains most of the time here.

Sounds fine to me!

er ... are we getting just a teensy weensy bit precious about this - it's a frigging burgee halfway up the mast among a number of other burgees, after all. Getting another supplier seems a tad OTT and somewaht unfair on t'organiser.

Shall we just get on with it - hardly the most pressing issue, just a nice to have?

This whole seven page thread exemplifies one (of the four) reason why this forum is such a giggle compared to my old haunt of YBW. Keep it up chaps, I havn't laughed so much since I last saw The Krankies onstage at the Auchterauder Apollo.

Assume you've been under strict surveillance since then?

I'm not really fussed either colour looks OK but if I had to choose I would go for mid blue.

Any colour will do for me Nick, especially the mid blue.

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.
