Raising The Tricolour
I just had a flashback to a drunken adventure me and my mates had years ago, about three in the morning we went over to Pollokshaws bowling green, one of the boys was in the navy and he climbed the flag pole and did his stuff, brought down the flag and raised a tricolour. Got me thinking, what have you done to piss off huns for a laugh?

It wasn't me but there's a lad from our hometown who's as mad as a box of frogs. Brownlow House, an 18th century castle built buy a wealthy Plantation family, is known as 'The biggest Orange Hall in the world' and the Union Flag is routinely flown from the flagpole at the top. Anyhow, the lad in question took it upon himself to scale the fence, dodge the Alsatian guard dogs, make his way on to the roof and climb up the flagpole. He proceeded to take down the Union Flag and in its place put a Tricolour. He managed to get down and leg it before the alarm was raised.
