"Hillo" and "Cherio"
 
HILLO (SF)!<BR>SENS(F)the CREPY(F),CRAWLEY(GB)holiday of Halloween is over, MAY(F)EYE(GB) be the FIRST(CH)to WISHAW’l(GB)the GALSAnd(R) FELLAs(I) HOOR(S)contributors to Fodors,my BEST(NL) wishes for the Thanksgiving holiday. I HOPE(N)EVRY(F)one has TIMETO(I) have a holiday (FEASt(F),not just common GRUB(G)like EGGEN(N)HAM(F)but rather an ABONDANCE(F)of good food. BAD KOHLGRUB(G)is no way to celebrate a holiday. BAKEWELLGB), hostesses! BEERS(NL)to fill a STEIN(A), VATS(N) of VINO(S)are in order,too. So,too, would a CROCQ(F) of GOUDA(NL)or EDAM(NL). A NIPA(N)two of BOUZE(F)or SAMBUCO(I)would be NICE(F); though more might be EXTREMO(P).<BR><BR>I hope the above makes SENSE(CH). Shifting BACKAN(S)FORTH(GB)from upper to lower case is not EZE(F). This is one of the SEQUALS(I) to a posting I did some years ago. Text SERCHS(E)on this website may recover them.<BR><BR>CHERIO(I)<BR><BR>I know this type of posting gives newcomers fits. Let me explain. The capitalized words are actual European place names. They’re followed by the national symbol that appears on autos corresponding to the country of the place name. For example: SF – Finland; F – France; GB – Great Britain, I – Italy; E - Spain and so on. The posting almost makes sense of a sort if spoken aloud. <BR><BR>
