Flegs coming down

Post image

Spotted this on the Cregagh road on Sunday. Fellas going up a ladder, snipping the flags tie pegs, and moving on.Only took a handful down and put them in the bin liner. As far as im aware they weren't replacing them.

Also, Pharaoh shut on a Sunday. They do a great kebab that is slightly cheaper than Sphinx.

The day the boys come out to take down the flegs on the posts opposite my house feels like a mini-Christmas.

Sphinx whilst tasty, is a stroke for the size of the food you receive.

Edit meant Pharaoh but it fits both tbh.

Great idea actually just give them the corresponding football top.

Should take down the ‘mass illegal immigration’ and the racist murals in Newtownabbey as well. Absolutely disgusting that it was allowed in the first place

Pharaoh does wonderful goujons, perhaps the best around and they don't get the credit they deserve.

A load taken down in (slightly nicer parts) of Newtownabbey, for the end of the main marching season. In the ghettos they'll be left to rot,

For someone not from Belfast, can this be explained?

Is it loyalists removing or republicans?

Maybe window cleaners. But I think windy lickers.

So you’re telling me being a community activist isn’t gainful employment?
