Collateral Lambage


Collateral Lambage, originally uploaded by Paris Set Me Free.

High above the city, while docile Parisians and visitors alike flock
to a multimillion euro group sauna (it's really hot right now),
unbeknownst to all, vigilanties are keeping watch...

This is the weekend of 'Le Grand Moisson' (the so-called Great
Harvest), the city's latest (and craziest?) invasion of the Champs
Elysées. This time we're not talking about the Prussians, or Hitler's
minions, or even a hoard of football fans really happy that their
little guys put a round thing in a hole more often than all the other
little guys.

Nope, this time the invasion comes in the shape of a few
potted trees, a lot of wilting grass and, err, oh yeah, a bunch of
very hot and very unhappy-looking sheep. No, i mean real sheep, you
know, those woolly things that don't live on the Champs Elysées...

A shady and secretive bunch, we, The Observers (yes, i count myself amongst
their numbers) keep a keen eye trained on this most peculiar of
capitals, constantly on the look out for any unusual, weird or just
downright stupid behaviour.

Here's an example...
