Football friday - South African flag car

The Football World Cup starts in South Africa next week. South Africans are getting into the spirit of things, and flags of all the participating nations are lining the roads and filling offices and shopping centres.

People have been particularly displaying our own flag, with street vendors selling flags to fit into the side windows of cars, and also covers for wing mirrors.

Aiden Choles is a friend of mine who decided that it wasn't enough to fly a flag from his car- he covered his entire car in a (removable) vinyl wrap. A number of local companies helped sponsor this, and he will be keep the flag flying until after the World Cup ends on July
