OMO passport from Marie Wintzer

[Dean aka Artist in Seine]

A real gem is one of these bookie things that a few of the Mail Artist make.  This one is speical as it has many hidden messages about French life in general, but the main story is that there is a tale in France that one can find a French passport as a free gift in a OMO soap box.  (OMO is the name of the soap, and has nothing to do with two men washing clothes together.)

It is a real delight, at least for me, and makes me laugh every time I pick it up, or use it on flights.  Thank you Marie, and yes I know that this little beauty must have taken hours to make.  Bravo!

Imagine if French actually GAVE up - the H?

orses, ouses, ogs, oods, ave, oot, angover, elp.  You get my drift - even toug tats Englis?

Happy that you are all amused, but this is serious stuff. 

PS Our wash machine is on the blink, and now I have to try and fit it.

Ops, no, it's the dryer that is broken.  False alarm.

[Marie Wintzer]

I can tell you it sounds even funnier in French. Because we don't pronounce h. Not that there is an h in OMO. But you see what I mean...
