Wink Which??

I am not sure which of our 2 flags you want - the St Andrew's Cross or the Royal Lion Rampant, but whichever 1 you need, you should be able to get them off the web at:
http://geographic.org/flags/scotland_flags.html

Hope that helps.

Paws for thought.

Scottish flag

There is only one Scottish flag - the saltire (St Andrew's cross).

The Lion Rampant is the personal standard of the reigning monarch (at the moment, Queen Elizabeth). It should only be flown when the monarch is present - but try telling that to the football and rugby fans who carry the LR to matches!

Is the Lion Rampant on its own available to Queen Elizabeth? I'm not sure if she is fully invested as the Queen of Scots. I know she can use it on the Royal Standard as one of the quarters but maybe not as it was, half Lion Rampant, half family crest

Rampant

I understand that Her Grace, Elizabeth, Queen of Scots flies the Lion Rampant whenever she has a garden party at Holyrood House.

However, elsewhere in Scotland she flies the English version of her Royal Standard which has a Scottish LR in 1 quarter, the English Lions in 2 other quarters and an Irish Harp in the other. She ought to use the Scottish version of her Standard in Scotland. It has the English Lions in 1 quarter and the LR in 2 quarters.
