Flag size

[moomin-j]

Right then...

I have just purchased a 6m extending flag pole to peg out & wave at everyone at our Forum gatherings.
I think a 5' x 3' flag is best.
Her 'indoors suggests a 3' x 2' flag will suffice.
As a bloke, I think bigger is better.

Anybody got any comments?

It's not about the size of your flag, it's the length of your pole

Men die if they don't have massive flags. Have you told her that fact yet?

 

[Dellmassive]

All mine are 5x3ft

3x2 sounds an odd ratio

5x3 much more flag-like

You should probably consider girth too, especially if you are sticking it up where it’s windy

I'll confirm with the wife, her thoughts on that one!!

I think @Fish over did it on his length.



Is bigger, better?

Remember you need to hammer home your pole really firmly.

Its definitely the length of pole that counts.....then its how many lights you can fit on it

6m of IP rated, remote controlled LED lights, are the next thing to find & spend the money on.
12V cigarette type connection or 240V?
Running from the 12V leisure batteries, or on 240V, but only when on hook up?
Decisions, decisions...
I feel another mail to @Deaky for his depth of knowledge re lighting is required
A weekend of cheap Forum camping has now made me spend even more money!!
It's a good job the other 'arf agrees to this expenditure!!

What's this about a new number plate, I now need to buy, for the next Forum meet?
When will it all end?

I now just lie to the wife....but secretly she knows
