: I hope this is my last one for this series:
: Watering holes - refers to Pubs or Bars or both

: and thanks of course.

The police cars are standing near the pub and "waving the flag".
Does it refer to the red light that's working, or is it methphorical and they mean:
to make their presence felt, or so.
And my thanks.
