I love this! An A4 sized Champagne postcard! Le Brun! Now Dean will surely remember than I'm not Burns, the crossed out name made me laugh! I'm hoping this house might belong to some of my distant ancestors...must look into my French genealogy branches...yes, I'd like to return home to this house!

From Janine a great tape transfer with a very sweet poem.

"She smiles

He dreams

What does he dream?

He dreams that she smiles

Why does she smile?

She smiles because he dreams..."

 

I particularly love how she cleverly used a champagne bottle for a nose on the envo!

Thanks Dean and Janine!!

Oooooooerrrr! You freak, Dean!! Why would I ask the boys about scissors or scalpel knives? Hope you aren't  talking about doing a wee in the snow!?  Or I hope you are, actually.

I bet you ask these same questions to all the boys!

    I have to really hold myself back from answering the last one.

I won't be steaming them off, no way!! I'll just have to take your word for it and maybe get some tips from you!!? Scissors or scalpel knife? What brand? How many champagnes before you loosen up enough for such a flowing line???

Thank you.   Well I'll consider that a real compliment.    Next time I'll send you the junk mail directly so you can check for yourself.  But if you look really really close, there must me an error somewhere.  Or better yet, steam one off and check the back.

Ha ha ha! You're so full of it, Dean!! An expert in symbolism, pfft!

No, I still think they were machine cut!

Ah yes, the bottles, I had forgotten about the bottles. 

     You see, the contents of the bottle symbolize the nature of your own emotions. To dream of a bottle of champagne means good times with others are planned for you.

     Actually I cut them out of the junk mail publicity which was sent to me. I threw the other parts away.

HA! That's a terrific poem, Dean!

Were those Champagne bottles stickers? Noone can cut that well!

     Happy it arrived within a month!  For some reason I get a lot of junk mail to buy wine & champagne.  This one was on its way to the rubbish bin when I spotted the name at the last second.

     Yes, I never think of these things, but I should have included a poem as well.

She drinks champagne

He watches TV

Why does she drink champagne

Because he watches TV

Why does he watch TV?

Because she drinks champagne.

   OK OK, not nearly as good as Janine's poem, but it's a start !
