Still pretty bitter about their performance at the flag World Cup.

It is a cool flag and they have a very nice map on Wikipedia.

I hate saying this so much. The Spanish version is much easier, but of they have a version why dont we? Didn’t someone on here say they were in France recently and discovered pain o chocolat isnt even called that in France? It’s called chocolatini or something infinitely easier. We’re being stitched up I tell ya.
