London's Oxford Street Goes Banner And Flag Crazy

No idea why, but out of the blue Oxford Street, London's main shopping drag, is suddenly awash with flags and banners.

Some very badly designed banners proclaim "Design Is Great" and "Craft Is Great", while doing a pretty great job of reflecting neither message.

Presumably the Union jack deluge, is some pre-Olympics hype thing? Who knows. It all seems entirely random.

Oh. Turns out the flags are for the Jubilee celebrations.
