Creepy. Intentionally?
Well obviously; that's why we Brits seldom fly flags other than at auspicious moments and within prescribed areas. Our homes are our castles, and not even the State can lay claim therein via rubber stamps! My place is
my property. That's why I refuse to buy a superyacht: I'd be obliged to fly somebody else's flags! Well, that's
one of the reasons I don't buy, but it's a good one...
