    That is the correct answer to the first part of the question...

    What makes it particularly special is that it is the world's oldest working digital computer.

    Oh, I was assuming the flags represented something other than just the imagination of an artist. Stupid me.

    You won't be able to get them that way - according to the September member's newsletter they are part of a current art exhibition.

    ARTIST IN RESIDENCE WORK ON DISPLAY

    Flying outside the clubhouse, six commissioned flags produced by artist Nisha Duggal, in partnership with Riverley Primary School in East London, explore the heritage of ROSL's historic home, as well as the pupils' heritage, community and homes. Showing alongside the flags, the film premiere of In Residence, which charts the project, will be on a continuous loop in the Princess Alexandra Hall. It combines a walkthrough of Over-Seas House with a bespoke soundtrack featuring noises captured during workshops with the pupils. 4 September, 12-2pm, Over-Seas House
    Edit: you were there before me.

    I'm sure you could have pretended to be me - they only ask for a membership number and you could have PMed for that.

    Ok this is just a bit of fun but it’s a watch on an old photo. The way you guys have been guessing this’ll probably be too easy also

    Not my photo but I've spent time in that area. I'm Scottish and all my grandparents are Scottish, but my mother was born in Somerset due to her Dad's displacement working with Rolls Royce in East Kilbride near Glasgow and BAC in Bristol (that merged with RR).

    It’s going to royally pee me off if I know the place. I am guessing it’s not Kefalonia but Zakinthos.
