Or guess it here!? Engish cities get sort of a lukewarm reception there

As an aside I posted it here because I streetviewed round a few British cities looking for flags, and there are a lot fewer than I remembered/imagined. I have a feeling they somewhat ubiqutuous but streetview seems to suggest otherwise!

it's Scandinavia you need to go to if you want to see national flags everywhere

I tried two Scandinavian cities and they both failed the 100 click street view challenge (how many flags can you see in 100 movements)

Aarhus 0
Oslo 1

bump

lots of tiny flags in hammersmith, strung tightly from lamp post to lamp post.

one of the post-v1* houses a couple of roads over has a couple of large ones and some bunting.

park flagpost, not yet.

(* there's a gap in a terrace filled with two obviously cheaply-built blocks. graffiti in the plaster work is dated 1945)
