Warning: Work in progress :)
I decided to create some @mixins which will help with creating Flex layouts, while offering support to older browsers.
The goal was to help me understand the flex property, then I got a little carried away with creating the fallbacks. I also created a fallback for Firefox, as it doesn't support the "flex-wrap" property just yet.
Disclaimer: Modernizr has a slight bug, and doesn't detect flexbox on Firefox, as it presents the no-flexbox. In the Firefox fallback code I have used both ".flexbox &" ".no-flexbox &". This isn't quite semantic, but I will update when Modernizr 3 is released.

I will be working on making the Sass code just a little bit more tidy.

I will look into that, thanks.
Question, is that just another Mixin file that is populated with all the different prefixes?
