We are Henry Mushroom

While in France when they won the World Cup in 98, my husband asked why everyone was singing about Henry Mushroom (Henri Champignon!) misunderstanding the chant On est champion! We related this story to our neighbours on the camp site who fell about laughing and sang Henry Champignon everytime they saw him. On our return they sent a post card from their home town in France addressed to Mr Henri Champignon!
