>>yeeessss... well I know that we've gone down hill a bit since giving away or losing most of the Empire, but I really didn't realise just how distant from the public eye we here in the UK had become!

>>I suspect you're being misled by the Isle of Man (an even smaller island off the coast of this one) flag they've put up against my Name. Do not ask me how it came to be there cos I haven't the faintest idea. Pretty though. Isn't it!

well the UK is no more nor less sporting than the US. The Isle Of Man symbol I can't quite remember the root of. Its one of those things lost in the mists of my schooling 30 years ago. The only sport they're associated with is the famous annual TT races for the bikers.
