When a medical practitioner advises you to stop doing something it's very serious.

I’d qualify for Wales through both maternal grandparents, and was nearly Welsh myself. Thankfully, my mum got me over the border into the finest English county there is just in time.

Cheshire

Wash your mouth out.

I’m originally from this great county
Can a County be great without a flag to stick in other people's faces?

We've got one.



So do Cheshire and Shropshire. Although they're not as good as the Warwickshire one.

Shropshire’s is weird and the Cheshire one isn’t much better. At least they still have their Mercian roots in terms of colour.

Why have they got Jackie Chan practicing on his Wing Chun wooden post in a bear suit?

Not a guess, the current name for British Honduras came up as a quiz question many moons ago. I also used to work with a guy whose mother was from Belize, and he'd head over there once or twice a year.

Still a guess that Smirker had roots there though surely unless the quiz question stated "Smirker is a common name in which Central American country?"

Well, given it's the second smallest country in Central America, was a former British Crown colony, we're on an English football club's forum, and Smirker doesn't appear to speak Spanish, I'd say it was a fairly obvious (and correct) choice rather than a 'lucky guess' e.g. randomly suggesting Nicaragua.

Very well worked out but Spanish is spoken in Belize and I do speak Spanish amigo  8)

Not fluent but I can read and write it  8)

I know, but English is still the most commonly spoken language there, unlike the other Central American countries.

I wasn't aware from your posts here that you speak Spanish, as you haven't once mentioned your 'gafas de sol'.

Not sure why flags are a topic on the Ollie thread, but our county flag looks like it should be that of a country.

The history of the flag dates waaaaaayyyyy back to ........2008

The Birmingham flag is absolutely shit.



I think we should use the Black Country flag.
