mint Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Now I don't think it was a leg-pull but I haven't been able to verify for myself.Is it true that the official portraits of the new French president sent out to all the mairies have the French flag wrongly placed at 90 degrees so that the strips are horizontal instead of vertical?[:-))] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mint Posted June 12, 2012 Author Share Posted June 12, 2012 But, Bugs, I didn't realise he would be getting his own flag instead of the French flag [:D] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mint Posted June 12, 2012 Author Share Posted June 12, 2012 Cruel and Naughty but Nice, Christine!Me, tomorrow, I'm going to walk up to the Mairie and look for myself to see if it's true about the flag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gardian Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 SW17 .............If your Mairie is anything like ours, you'd be wasting your time.Chirac's portrait was still up in our Mairie more than a year after Sarko's election in 2007.I pointed it out, gently I thought, and it seemed to be quite a surprise. "Beeee.....hhhh oui" said the Maire.Things have never been the same between us since. [;-)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Val_2 Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 Sarko was still up in our council chamber last thursday when I went to my meeting, someone remarked about it and it was consigned to the cupboard. Wonder when the new one will arrive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
