We fly the English flag all the time, not because we are footie fans, just we feel we are English having been born and bred here.

Re: Flag flying at Funeral Directors
I think it would be nice if people did fly the flag as Mitzy does, to be proud of England. Trouble is most people only hang it for football then take it back in again till next match.
I`m in no way saying that is a bad thing, it`s good to get behind your team and support them all the way, just be nice if the flag was seen in non match times too.

I noticed it had gone too, anybody know if anything had been said to the place itself or why they decided to take it down?

It must be very difficult for the embalmers to know how to set the facial expression as they never knew the person in life. My own mother looked nothing like herself either and it was difficult to believe it was actually her. My aunt on the other hand looked exactly like herself and so did a dear friend of ours who died just shortly before my first husband.
