Flags

On my way to work this morning I noticed the flag on the right flying at half mast for no apparent reason. In fact I snapped an image with the intention of discussing later with my colleagues. However, because of the usual tight deadlines and generally busy day, the conversation was never had.

I have since been unable to find any apparent reason for this, but ...as I returned this evening it became evident that the flags in this image were new (or had been washed and were drying in the fierce wind!) and were obviously in the course of being changed as I'd passed by first thing this morning!
