If Scotland does vote yes, and therefore St Andrews Cross is taken off the Union Jack, perhaps we will then have a symbol of Wales - sadly lacking at the moment.

Researching:
Woodhouse and Trilloe from Herefordshire; Lockyear and Date from Somerset, Thomas and Edwards from Glamorganshire and Monmouthshire, also Argyll, Tipperary, Limerick, Cork

Probably the Union Jack without the Blue St Andrews Cross.

On another note - I think it is not the Scottish Saltire flag or the Union Jack that they should be flying above 10 Downing Street - it is the Jolly Roger (Skull & Crossed Bones) :-D :-D :-D

Researching:
I am researching the Wotherspoon family from the Old/New Monkland areas of Scotland, some moved to the Leslie and Kelty areas of Fife and I'm having problems linking the Wotherspoon's from Leslie and the Wotherspoon's from Kelty. I am also researching the Clusker family from Co. Meath in Ireland who moved to West Lothian and from there to Fife............"Vita non est vivere sed valere vita est"

I always love to see the Union Jack flying, if Scotland get the YES vote will we have to have a new flag?
