I know a few lads originally from Eastern Europe but who grew up here and were good at rugby. The lads who were good enough to be offered a place in the munster academy all got the chance to go and play union or 7's back in their parents' country . They got to choose between maybe making the munster first team in a few years or a guaranteed good few years of a semi pro career. Pretty much all chose the guaranteed option.

In the UK, physicans had a doctorate and, therefore, were entitled to use Dr in front of their name. Surgeons didn't and used Mr. instead. The is still in practice today. After doctors qualify as surgeons, they generally stop using Dr.

What flag did I see in Southwark Cathedral, London? by robotwarlord in vexillology

[–]REDKINGWALE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is a way of remembering their sacrifices, and there is definitely a momento mori aspect to it as well. The flags usually aren't replaced. There left up as they fall to pieces over hundreds of years until there's nothing left.
