    This is closest so far.

    I think one starts with a 'B", but I think I am thinking of Barbuda which is a completely seperate thing, and one is Serba, sarba, saba or something similar

    Bonaire, Aruba and Curacao were all part of the Netherlands Antilles so is it one (or all) of them??

    I think you are right, I have an inkling the island flag of Bonaire is the one. The flag for the Netherlands Antilles is basically a red and white cross on white.

    I was there, Curacao, in '86 for the F3000 race through the streets of Willamstaad. Had a great time. The three islands were all different. Curacao was the commercial center; Aruba the vacation island and Bonaire was the "sporting" island with great snorkling, diving and fishing. Haven't been back since though I've thought about it plenty of times.

    Correct it is the Flag of Bonaire.

    Bonaire along with the others was part of Netherland Antilles a autonomous Country in the Caribbean and since the Netherland Antilles have been dissolved it is now a Municipality of Netherlands. Strange stuff.

    Bonaire's flag it is so take it away Starter.

    Unlucky Anfield you done all the working and were about to get there I think.
