As the Union Jack is only flown on ships (pedantic mode) I can only assume biggs is so excited about today he is flying full mast.

Hansard House of Lords 14 July 1908

*EARL HOWE My Lords, I rise to ask His Majesty's Government, with a view to removing any possible doubt that may exist on the subject, whether it is a fact that the full Union Jack may be flown on land by every citizen in the Empire as well as on Government Offices and Public Buildings.

§[url="http://hansard.millbanksystems.com/people/mr-robert-crewe-milnes"]*THE EARL OF CREWE My Lords, the noble Earl asks me, with a view to removing any possible doubt that may exist on the subject, whether it is a fact that the full Union Jack may be flown on land by every citizen in the Empire. As many of us know, there 580has existed in the public mind a Curious confusion as to what flags may be flown and what may not. At one time it seemed to be believed that the Royal Standard could be flown anywhere and by anybody. That, however, as we now know, is not the case. It was formally announced that the Royal Standard is the personal flag of the Sovereign, and cannot properly be flown without His Majesty's permission, which is only granted when either the King or Queen is present. But, of course, a very different state of things applies to the Union Jack. I think it may fairly be stated, in reply to the noble Earl, that the Union Jack should be regarded as the National flag, and it undoubtedly may be flown on land by all His Majesty's subjects.

THE EARL OF MEATH My Lords' I am very pleased indeed to hear from His Majesty's Government the statement that the Union Jack may be flown on land by all British subjects. There has been a certain amount of doubt on the subject, and it is as well that it should have been set at rest. It is rather curious that a British citizen is about the only one who is not quite certain under what flag he really stands as a private citizen; and I have known of some instances in this country where the Union Jack has actually been pulled down by the police. I am obliged to His Majesty's Government for having definitely cleared up this matter.

So it's quite alright to call it the Union Jack when flown on land. The Earl of Railway Junctions said so.

I didn't get up till nearly 10am, the wife was up early baking for my mum and dads 60th wedding anniversary party. I came downstairs to the kitchen, TVs on with the wedding, the wife's still got her dressing gown on, lightly covered in icing sugar etc, tables covered in cake paraphinalia...she looked at me and said...bugger, i was going to have my dressing gown and best hat on for the wedding when you got up.
The moment was gone, but the idea made me laugh and laugh.
