Fixed now, I can see the picture. Very funny it is too - I particularly like the black flag one.

This has been one of the final slides in the MSA flag marshalling presentation for the last two years - now I need to look for some new jokes!

THANKS!

There is an Australian flag rules variant that was done by Aussie Motorsport Cartoonist "Stonie" years ago but posting it would breach a couple of 10/10the T&C's (concerning the content) and I don't have a soft copy to share anyway.

Excellent article - Sept 2011. Unfortunately unable to read Oct 2011 - not sure if it is our browser or the website - hope to get fixed soon so can read another excellent, well written and observed article by Dave Brand!



Nina

PS - also an excellent idea for flag training as it will stop the flaggies falling asleep - I've seen you all!!
