    1. Subsequent to publishing this Colin has advised that both flag and Machin should be available - or so Royal Mail have said. They were both supposed to be available at Salisbury but I believe no Flags were supplied!

  3. I was able to get flags on the Friday, and there are quite a few listings on ebay for flags with receipts for Friday and Saturday.
