The Phillip Hughes one will Fred, it's the Sean Abbott one we're not sure what best to do with now.

I see, should have read the whole thread
Still think it would be good to keep them together though, even if the Abbott one doesn't see the light of day again

Last one was from where I was actually sitting which was miles away from the flag so it didn't come out the best.
Have been away so only just saw this, top work Adders! Awesome that you managed it! The authorities allowed it to stay up the whole day?

Hmm maybe we use the same server as the gabba.

Only just saw this James...........yep, no bother at the G at all. Security didn't bat an eyelid at them whilst searching my bag going into the ground. Don't expect Dan to have any bother at the SCG either..........they're just ****s at the GABBA and are well known for having over zealous ****wits on security.

That's good to know. Cheers.
Unfortunately no news agency contacted me wanting to take up our story but great that we didn't have a problem at the G.
Yep, that'd be it.

Thanks Dan. I've pinged Adders who is coordinating all of this. He'll let you know.
Thanks Jono, that would be great.

Hey Guy's,
So we need to make a decision between us as to what happens next. With the Sean Abbott flag as we've already discussed, I'm really not sure what we should do with it? It seems pointless to me moving it around with the Hughes flag when we're not going to display it.........so maybe we should just get it to James for the time being until we decide?
As for the Phillip Hughes one, I reckon we can definitely get it over to the UK later this year for the Ashes, but we have got a World Cup before that...........should we keep this to test only or do you think we should try and get it around some WC games? I'm going to the Eng/Aus game at the G so would be happy to put it up there if everyone wants and it would be pretty cool if we could get it to some games in NZ.
The other consideration when we do look at sending it over to the UK is the cost of postage. So far myself and howardj have had to post it interstate which has been fine and neither of us were concerned about covering the cost as it was bugger all. Once it comes time to send it overseas though the costs are going to be such it would be unfair to expect whoever is currently in possession of it to foot the bill. I can't recall how much but we do have a surplus kitty from the donations which we we're going to donate to a suitable charity.............what do we all feel about James holding onto that cash to cover the costs of sending the flag to England and back, and potentially any other international travel it possibly could encounter?
I do have plans to visit the UK at the end of Jun (not for cricket sadly) so it is possible I could take it over and save us the postage but the trip isn't confirmed yet (90% definite though at this stage)
As always, all input, thoughts and comments welcome...........we all own this.
