I make flags out of Lego, but they’re not very good

If, however, your favourite #FlagTypes are the flags of British Overseas Territories with a Union Jack in the canton, there’s a bit more choice and the winners are #Anguilla, #Bermuda, the #BritishIndianOceanTerritory (for now) and the #FalklandIslands 🇦🇮🇧🇲🇮🇴🇫🇰
If the flags of independent states with a Union Jack in the canton are your thing when it comes to #FlagTypes, your only options are #Australia, #Fiji, #NewZealand and #Tuvalu 🇦🇺🇫🇯🇳🇿🇹🇻
@sellingamirror.bsky.social This Year’s Love is this picture of a fella selling a mirror. It’s The One I Love. Something something Babylon something. Please Forgive Me.
#FlagTypes If you insist on multiple stars with your crescent moon, #Comoros, #Singapore, #Turkmenistan and #Uzbekistan have got what you crave 🇰🇲🇸🇬🇹🇲🇺🇿
In other news, today I had a conference call with splendid people from places as varied as the #CaymanIslands, #Ghana, #TrinidadandTobago and #Wales - and yes that’s a turtle, thanks for asking 🇰🇾🇬🇭🇹🇹🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿
I love finding new ways to make a crescent moon and star, and the winners of the corresponding #FlagTypes category - #Algeria, #Libya, #Malaysia and #Pakistan - showcase four different approaches 🇩🇿🇱🇾🇲🇾🇵🇰
Most flags with both vertical and horizontal axes of symmetry are excellent, so congratulations to #Botswana, #Georgia, #Jamaica and #NorthMacedonia on winning an especially competitive #FlagTypes category 🇧🇼🇬🇪🇯🇲🇲🇰
Sure enough, charged equal horizontal tribands are the next #FlagTypes category, and the honours go to #Azerbaijan, #Croatia, #Myanmar and #Venezuela 🇦🇿🇭🇷🇲🇲🇻🇪
The winners in the charged vertical triband #FlagTypes category are #Barbados, #Mexico, #Moldova and #Mongolia, and there are bonus points available if you can spot the duck looking backwards 🇧🇧🇲🇽🇲🇩🇲🇳
Today’s #FlagTypes category is stars (or in many cases star, and in Lego usually circle/circles) and stripes, where the victors are #Cuba, #Liberia, #Togo and the #UnitedStates 🇨🇺🇱🇷🇹🇬🇺🇸
Some important non-Lego, non-flag news: I’ve discovered that my phone always gives me these three suggestions for “Wacky”, and I can’t stop laughing at the unknown series of events that leads it to think I probably want to say “Wacky wizards”, “Wacky wizard” or “Wacky Friday”
It’s Independence Day in #Botswana tomorrow, and today they’re having a bonus national holiday to celebrate winning the men’s 4x400m at the World Athletics Championships last week. Sounds like a grand couple of days - enjoy! 🇧🇼
I’m enjoying watching some cycling on TV from #Rwanda for a change 🇷🇼
As there are few entrants in the Nordic crosses #FlagTypes category, I’ve made an exception and allowed autonomous island territories to take part. Probably in part due to this novelty value, two of them - #Åland and the #FaroeIslands - join #Iceland and #Sweden as winners 🇦🇽🇫🇴🇮🇸🇸🇪
The diagonal stripes #FlagTypes category sees victory for #DRCongo, #Namibia, #StKittsandNevis and #Tanzania 🇨🇩🇳🇦🇰🇳🇹🇿
