Hi Geoff

There is a site with pretty much everything on it available mail order. Unfortunately I'm on the road at the moment and the address is on my home computer. However, I originally found it quite easily by searching on "Flag Supplier".

Hope this helps.

Regards, Mick

If you have no luck finding what you need, we have a number of flag stickers available that we supply when we go to an HU Meeting, approx. 1 3/4" x 3" or 38mm x 75mm.

We do NOT have all countries, primarily have the "hard to find" countries. Popular stickers like UK, USA that are available everywhere we didn't bother getting made.

If there is any interest, I'll post the list later - when I find it...

There is a shop in Amsterdam across from the station near the river. It is a real tourist shop and you cant miss it. Has every sticker you could ever imagine. Also if in Asia you can get stickers made. You just need to show a picture of the flag or whatever you want on the sticker and they will make it for next to nothing. We had some great ones made in Malaysia and Thailand. You can get just one or two made of each design.
