Welcome to Cannes, where the weather is bright and friendly, and the judges are many beautiful
It is of course the most frabjous of all weeks where lucky workers within the communications industry get to read “What I did on my holidays” school essays from the lucky 1% who are currently in Cannes.
And this year, those who have been shivering through the Australian winter solstice have an additional treat. Whybin\TBWA’s digital bigwig Russ Tucker has filed his diary column for Campaign Brief in French. You can read it here.
But as an additional service, Dr Mumbo has taken the liberty of running it through Google Translate:
“I feel like I’m metamorphose and turn into a man full of French origin. Although I think I sound more like Borat to locals with my high school French note of vocabulary.
to read about the number of agencies sending people, when the same agencies have been doing rounds of redundancies.
When having a pot shot at the competition, a bit of proof reading wouldn’t go astray.
“frabjous”
“columnfor”
Were you so overwhelmed with desire to slag others off that you thought an extra five seconds was too much to wait?
Hi KGB,
I take it you’re not a fan of Lewis Carroll… Frabjous was intentional http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/jabberwocky/
However, please forgive us our missing space between ‘column’ and ‘for’…
Cheers,

Bloody long queue there.
@ mumbrella:
OK, let’s call it 1-1.
Any lost dogs this year?
