Smaller and really, really, really wet flag!

Now just like an iceberg, over nine tenths of this little gem is below the water. And also like a really famous iceberg that 'Titanic' slammed into, this one had the potential to ruin your whole day. For 'Silk' it sure did and now we know why they retired. Bless them though for ploughing on to Geelong and the big bash. Cheers.

Thank you 'A Completely Different Source'. Good pic, I appreciate you sending it to me and trust you actually get that better camera you want, so you can take cleaner snaps.

Well done Wally Tench from 'Crackerjack', who started me on the whole 'Flag' thing. Look what you've started... Good job lad!
