On my other blog - Gog with a Blog - I mentioned a recent day visit to Dublin in which I easily spotted over half a dozen Welsh flags within a few hours... but no St. George flags and few St. Andrew flags. Alan in Dyfed reckons he didn't see a St. George flag in Ireland in two years! Interesting.
In fact, I find that also occurs in Edinburgh - a few Welsh flags dotted about (admittedly less that in Dublin) but no St. George flags. I've been to Scotland well over a dozen times - mostly Ayrshire, Glasgow and Edinburgh - and I can't recall ever seeing a St. George flag.
Anyway, here's a few photos of those red, white and green flags in Dublin...

I never saw the Union Jack flying in Ireland either, which makes a lot of sense, thinking about history.

I have a suggestion to raise awareness. To everyone who supports the cause of Welsh Independence -
fly the flag!
The more it is visible the higher the profile for the cause.
