Omlet Staff james Posted August 16, 2005 Omlet Staff Share Posted August 16, 2005 (edited) The French national news channel TFI are popping up to Omlet tomorrow morning to film our wonderful world of chickens. They have also requested to speak to one of our loyal customers and film them alongside an eglu in their back garden! So we're on the hunt for a young family (preferably in London) to be filmed either Wednesday afternoon or Thursday morning. So If you're looking for your five minutes of fame please e-mail me on simon@omlet.co.uk pronto. Your garden should be presentable and of course big enough to hold a film crew!! - oh and don't worry you don't have to speak French.

red Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 J'adore mon eglu mais je n'habit pas a Londre et je n'ai pas des enfants (I've made the eglu masculine - I hope that's right - oh and it was 12 years ago that I studied French so let's not have any clever linguists making me look silly) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motherhen Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 Come on you guys - over 6 hours since the exciting prospect of mixing with a french film crew and no takers! Go for it! Perfect way to occupy the kids for a half day and some eggciting stuff to write in their 'what I did over the summer' essay Actually if anyone did speak reasonable french that would be sooooo cool - they have such a wrong impression of our linguistic skills. And just think - the result of the programme could be Paris with an eglu in every street Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnnieP Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 J'aime garder de chickens.Il est une expérience très tranquille et enrichissante. Ils ne prennent pas travaille beaucoup et les oeufs sont simplement superbes. Mais j'ai pensé les animaux traités français très mal ? They won't be picking me then!

Popcorn Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 I am quite good with my hands (no rude comments please!) I design prints for Childrenswear so have to draw all sorts of weird and wonderful characters for the front of T-Shirts and PJ's. You can see my stuff in Bhs, Mothercare, Asda etc......(bit of a claim to fame there!) I also teach degree students how to design too I've gone all coy now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louise Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 There you go. I can't do arty stuff to save my life in fact I drew a picture of a hamster once that I am still being teased about 3 years later. They only know it was a hamster because I told what it was meant to be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What fun to say to someone wearing one of your pieces. "oh, well, of course I know the designer......... " What a great job you have!
