My personal feelings about this are that if you feel the need to show the flag of your country in anothers have the common courtesy of showing the flag of your host nation as well.

I have done that now, my GF found a Thai flag nearly the same size, and it´s now placed on the opposite side of the entrance, and in the same height. Leo :wink:

I never flew any flags outside my house in the UK and I have no plans to start now, but I think this is all being given way too much significance.

Unless it's really cool, of course...
