Tip: RT @MarcForrest: Idea: if you are taking your kids to the soccer, write your cell number on their arm with permanent marker. If they get lost you can be called
Remember not to take flags on poles or sticks - they are not allowed into the stadiums :(

Yup, its over... and what a host South Africa has been - we did it! We did it! We felt it! We enjoyed it! We represented the whole of Africa! We did it! We did it! We welcomed the world! We caught criminals in the act - and some of those were not South Africans! - Some were soccer teams entourages! We are proud! We are united! We are South Africans! We are proud!
And to celebrate, as heard on John Maythams show this morning (4th July) on Cape Talk 567 and Radio702, lets all celebrate by "Keeping the flag alive" and "keep the flag waving", and "fly the South African flag" long after the World Cup is over.
Draftfcb South Africa has launched a National campaign to retain the energy and passion unleashed by the 2010 spectacular. See here for more: www.keepflyingtheflag.co.za
