It is very simple stuff, but I'd be interested if you could see anything
'wrong'/undesirable/not semantic etc. For example, is it OK to put a
<menu> inside a <nav>? Is the flash embedded properly?

I think <menu> is supposed to be a widget/app element rather than a
simple list of links, and using it might cause some unexpected
consequences down the road. From
http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/interactive-elements.html#menus-intro
:
"The menu element is used to define context menus and toolbars."
See also the picture below "In a supporting user agent, this might look
like this". Just a regular <ul> would be fine for navigation elements.
But http://html5.validator.nu/ thinks both pages are OK, and they look
the same in Firefox 3.5 and IE7, so it seems to be good.
