Falls Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 Hello, This is a work of fiction. If it reminds you of anybody, past or present or heard on the radio, seen on TV or someone that you think you might have seen on TV, then its a complete coincidence. Regards The Invitation.

Falls Posted April 8, 2007 Author Share Posted April 8, 2007 It reminds me of no-one! Nicely done. Hello, Thanks for your comment. I suppose this type of story is not everybody's cup of tea. As I'm sure you noted, my choice of the President of France as the recipient of the fictious invitation was deliberate. For no matter who occupies that position, he or she is almost certain to be person of culture and good taste. Therefore, the contrast to the sender was as great as its possible to get. Also the prospect of someone of culture flying for several hours just to stand in field in searing heat to eat hot-dogs with a bunch ya-ho's, is just about nil.

Falls Posted April 10, 2007 Author Share Posted April 10, 2007 Is the first word " Yo " any hint ? Hello, I think the phrase, "Yo Blair", once came up at meeting somewhere, but I'm not sure. Maybe it was something I saw on television. My memory is not so good these days! Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shoeshine Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 You have an impish sense of humour, Falls.....it's still there y'know! I particularly loved the "(Downtown") reference to the Élysée Palace Address! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Falls, That reminds me, your invitation to the writer’s group barbeque is in the post (airmail of course) That was very well done, I would be very interested to see the French Presidents reply to THAT invitation!

Falls Posted April 23, 2007 Author Share Posted April 23, 2007 Hi Falls, I would be very interested to see the French Presidents reply to THAT invitation! Hello, His response would probably be "Mon Dieu". Incidentally, on my submission I was going to add a postscript to the invitation thanking M. le' President for the colouring books. But that would obviously give the senders identity away. Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
