You are at a wedding reception and you desperately, urgently want to be anywhere other than here.

You realise, with growing horror, that you left your cocaine in your other jacket.

Now this French one is an ACTUAL sultry gem they could just as easily send today to critical acclaim!

 

[Tisch]

What says France to you?

OLD MAN GETTING ANNOYED!
WOMAN HOLDING BAGUETTE!

 

[dmlaw]

Most of the postcards have the spectacular world-renowned sights of the country. The French one has some old men playing boules.

 

[win_the_game]

I adore this French entry

 

[Dark Carnival]

Oh I see it’s our years embracing the DOM-TOM ( ) (overseas territories)

 

[Tisch]

When does the song start please?

It’s the year after they came second with a North African singer, so I assume they’re trying to repeat the trick.

 

[Penelope]

When does the song start please?

RACISME!

Except they removed the best thing from the Amina entry, aka the SCARFOGRAPHY

 

[Penelope]

It’s the year after they came second with a North African singer, so I assume they’re trying to repeat the trick.

And the year before that they came second with one from Martinique! France were on a real run with it at this point.

Then of course they went for CORSICA the year after this

 

[Tisch]

RACISME!

Is it racist to want a BIG POP CHORUS

JUSTICE FOR AMINA

 

[D5K]

It was fine but I was hoping it would go somewhere

 

[Tisch]

Then of course they went for CORSICA the year after this

To be fair, the Corsican man was STUNGORGE

IMO France should revisit the strategy more often - it's one that suits them well!
