There's a place on the Hutt Rd, west side, just south of Kaiwharawhara.
I think they're called 'Flagmakers'.
Never used them, though.

I haven't used them either, but when I was looking for a flagmaker last year (for plans that ended up cancelled) I was recommended them, and apparantly they're really good quality - both product and service.

Not cheap though, a 8' x 5' flag (from scratch - ie not your run of the mill national flag) was $600

Yeah I think they are pretty specialist. Looking for a bit more of a garage operation or football friendly outfit. We need some flags in the zone

If you really wanted to improvise, cut up some yellow or black sheets ...

Do we need flags, though?
Wouldn't they obstruct the view of some people?

Granted, they do look good ...

would ideally like one big one and some ones to go on 1 metre polls. Not to sell. Just need to find someone to do it and some money

Stadium thugs won't allow the poles in will they???? Surely they be seen as weapons or banned for some reason.

You could mention it to Boycie when we have that meeting, i think we were keen to help out with those last year, but you guys opted for the banner instead.

Good call. Get hold of some tame art/design students and lock them in a sweatshop till the flags are finished
 
Don't pay them though. They'll only waste the cash on cider and Pot Noodles

Apparently I'm apathetic, but I couldn't care less.

Yeah, I was speaking from personal experience. Except I was more of an 80 shilling man myself.....and I hate pot noodles.

Not much 80/- in Northern Ireland, where I went to Uni. Tescos might get the occasional bottle of it in (as well as Youngers No. 3), but it was a bit pricey - the closest to 80/- you could get in the pub was Smithwicks (or Bass), neither of them anywhere as good as a Caley or McEwans 80/-

yeah they are good but not many seem to have them. I said we dont want to sell these but give them away and improve the colour and atmosphere - particularly with a big one like this (VERY rough draft)
