OIC.
"Patty"?
Patty is invariably female, innit, hence my confusion.

Usually, I guess.
There's [link|http://commdocs.house.gov/committees/intlrel/hfa49268.000/hfa49268_0.HTM|Patty Ashdown], isn't there? Oh, [link|http://www.libdems.org.uk/index.cfm/page.whois/section.people/wid.2/wgroup.peer|Paddy]. ;-)
I'd always heard the UK flag referred to as having the crosses of St. George and St. Andrew. I didn't know about Patrick until I read [link|http://www.travelblog.org/World/uk-flag2.html|this]. Makes sense, I guess. But why doesn't Wales have a cross of some sort on the flag if England, Ireland and Scotland are included?
[edit:] To make Peter happy. ;-j
Cheers, Scott.

Because their flag is a dragon.
And where would you put a dragon on the Union Flag?
Also, it's Wales. The whole thing is about the size of my thumbnail.

Cool! How do they make a dragon hang from a flagpole?

Sorry, I'm tired.

Nails, of course.
Big ones.

I was emphasising the fact that, well, it's Wales, not indicating that the word should be large or bold ;-)
Americans! So amusingly literal sometimes! Cute :-)

Um, I did spell it correctly the first time, didn't I?
Or was that related to the Patty/Paddy stuff?
Curiously yours, Scott.
