Couldn't get myself across the road and opposite old Britannia fast enough when I spotted the Union Jack cab parked up... Britannia, Union Jack, next week's Jubilee shinnanigans... all very appropriate I thought..
Took a couple of shots without a passer by but as is my want, I had to get one with someone in too...
Hot, hot hot today... hope it lasts to the weekend.
And on other news - bought more Olympic tickets today... A couple of semi-finals, silver/bronze medal and gold medal fights in Greco-Roman Wrestling.!!! A bit homo-erotic for sure, but for £20 it was too good to turn down...
cool shot - was in Cirencester today - union flags everywhere in preparation! more Olympic tickets...didn't even know there were more up for grabs - except on the black market!
@sparkle quite a few, my colleague snapped up judo finals (about 6 fights, 2 gold medal matches in total) for £45 from the offical site.. all the main sports gone but archery, hockey, badmington, weightlifting still available...
I was just thinking of doing a piss-take discussion, whats the most obscure Union Jack you can find, with a purpose made tag and everything. Since in Tescos everything from Steak pudding to chick peas has union jack packaging and everywhere I look. Marks and Spencers are doing a union jack box of biscuits I think. Madness. Up here in the neglected north we're going round saying, Olympics? Queen? who gives a sh**? ;)
@chewyteeth haha yeah, noticed thagt in Texcos too... come to ower hamlets mate... 70% muslim and not a union jack in sight (honest)... Unless this cab drives through...
@andycoleborn well Bolton's mostly Pakistanis so I don't know how the union jack biscuits will sell.
All seems like a big distraction to me.
'WTF...How much you spending in Afghanistan?!!??'
'erm...can I interest you in a jubilee party...?'
I'll not be drawn into slanderous comments on Bolton. I come from Manchester anyway originally and my whole family are city supporters. That and Rugby league.
@andycoleborn there's quite a lot of good stuff left - found diving, badminton basketball etc. my computer was overtaken by trojan gremlins last night so didn't get round to booking anything...got a morning of IT geeks crawling on my system whilst I twiddle my thumbs!
Saying that, great capture, and good timing.
*Tescos
*Tower Hamlets
Need to slow down typing haha

Nothing to celebrate in Bolton this year (season) anyway is there? :-)
