Middlesex [Dynamic Flag]

The flag of the historic English county of Middlesex.

The Flag of Middlesex portrays three seaxes beneath a Saxon crown on a red field; a seax echoes the name of the county ('Middelseaxe) and the crown its ancient origin.

Although the county itself ceased to exist in 1965, Middlesex is still used as a placename, and exists in the name of such organisations as the Middlesex County Cricket Club or Middlesex University. Royal Mail guidelines now leave the use on letters of the historic county, administrative county, or no county at all up to the personal preference of the addresser, and Middlesex is consequently commonly found on addresses outside the London postal districts (and sometimes, even within).

If anyone of you dare attempt to besmirch the good name of my home county by making a "ha ha secks funny xD" comment, I will personally turn up to your house and studs-up, two-foot you out of a third-storey window.
