Magic potion ? anyone ?

Asterix and obelix, PEZ, Austria, 1997

Sono pazzi questi Romani (SPQR...For the Senate and the People of Rome)

Obelix, Delacoste, France, 1967

Gros ? tout juste un peu enveloppé

If there is a character that represents all the "joie de vivre" of the French, this is definitely it. Big mouth, big heart and big muscles. Does not like Ceasar's soldiers very much (and they don't like him either, since they run like crazy away from them).

Dropped inside the cauldron of magic potion when he was a kid.

Sometimes wished I had that chance !

Now you know where I am for the holidays ! Good cheese and wine, lots of sun... and even more of these irreductibles Gaulois !
