while i’m really intreagued on what “kudos” is, i’m going to give you only 1 of the 3 answers you request:
i think that is the hungarian flag.
it might be italy’s too… but i think the italian flag has vertical stripes, isn’t it?
I think it’s the Egyptian flag, not sure where though. An Egyptian embassy or a large store owned by an Egyptian?
Kudos is honour, glory or acclaim. David you’re so close!
David’s playing dumb.
Let’s make it a little easier. It’s the latter of his two suggestions and it’s located in Knightsbridge, London.
Maybe a little too easy. It is Harrods department store in Knightsbridge, London UK, owned by Mohamed Al-Fayed, an Egyptian. I was looking north east up Brompton Road. The sun was quite strong that evening. Here’s another I took with the Egyptian flag inset. Thanks, everyone, for commenting.
ok ok… a lot of kudos to david
in my eyes, that black stripe on the flag was green
… so… maybe next time
