Andrew, most people have their location on their profile, as you do!

As I said - it's often clear, but not always ...  :)

Unfortunately I believe it is the opposite. I have noticed that people don't have their location on their profile, and I believe they should. Just country is adequate - there is no need for specifics, but it can often help when replying to know where a rootschatter is living. I agree that it is often/sometimes evident.  :)

Thanks Ruskie,

Just checked my profile & after all those years I didn't realise my location wasn't filled in so I've now done that & added a wee bit extra  ;D

If NZ flag changes as a result of a current referendum, then I will try that one for a change from my G Grandparents.

The chances are our flag will either stay as it is now, or a new one altogether (chosen from 4 designs from previous referendum!  Very low numbers voting!

Cost to taxpayers - much better things for the Govt to be spending money on than 2 postal referendums!

This next and final vote will be current flag vs new flag!
