Oh Brendan - it's quite quite easy: M T G G see. Ah sorry, DC - didn't see that you'd already got it. But I'm shocked - you must have been too young to have the Tufty Club annual 1979.

Nah honey, ahm in the PR bizniz innit, they wuz just a client (although even my own parents still think I make ads for a living, so what hope I of disabusing anyone else?)

But can you spell hungry horse in 4 letters?

We Buy Any Car is a work of freaking genius and I'll offer to step outside with anyone who cares to disagree. So it's lacking the plot narrative of J R Hartley, but in the words of another ad, it does what it says on the tin. What makes an advert pleasing to those watching it is quite different from what makes a good ad - as silverfox says, they're there to make you spend money. I used to work for Brita - their "my lovely cup of tea" ads regularly topped the polls of most hated by the public. And yet the sales of water filters went through the roof every time they were on air.

Happy birthday Mr Lush. May your cup runneth over with the finest wines known to humanity...

Ahh, it all becomes clear. Excellent.

Absolutely no idea what's going on here, but I'm rather liking this thread

Ooh, very interesting - thanks for this HAL - don't suppose by any chance you're a subscriber? Would love to read the whole thing.

Different from, different from, different from - not different TO

Fantastically creative, some have employed the word "genius"; graduated from enfant terrible to senior leading light in British (and international) fashion. His clothes make women look fierce, beautiful and sexy (similar thing with the menswear actually - hot). And a nice guy who loved his mum. Will be horribly missed in the creative and fashion worlds, and devastating for his family to lose him and his mum together. A sad sad day - RIP.

Hahaha, never, never. I don't own it for god's sake (but I have just acquired Pour Some Sugar on Me for Lucky 7s). And not to be pedantic, but isn't it something like B*witched..?

I hope you're talking about the song and not about me there RD..?

Poison by Alice Cooper In a similar vein, Animal by Def Leppard In an entirely different vein, Reach for the Stars by S Club 7

Well if it's any consolation giggirl I won't be single on Valentine's Day for the first time in years (well, not unless something goes horribly wrong between now and Sunday). However my latest paramour doesn't believe in cards and chocolates, so I'll probably end up watching Antiques Roadshow on my own...

Ah Zelda Zelda Zelda - was only thinking about Link this morning - how I miss him and his little ocarina so. I had to give away my Nintendo 64 to the kids' ward at the hospital because I was regularly staying up until 4 in the morning on a work night trying to get just one more song. I can still picture the ghosts on the farm and the underwater fountain kingdom and my beautiful horse... But back in the day, you couldn't beat a bit of Attic Attack on the spectrum, and I'm pretty fucking brilliant at pacman

I used to contribute to a shark forum (little known fact, I'm a bit of a shark geek) but I got vigorously rounded on when someone went off-topic and I suggested US foreign policy wasn't all it might be and bombing towel-heads ultimately not the best thing for world peace. If people on here think the comments about misplaced apostrophes can be harsh, they want to see some of the hate emails I got as a result of that little escapade. ED so much more softly-spoken than US. I too have dallied with HolyMoly, but I found most of them worthy of their own cunts Corner, so now I reside only here, with its gentle ebb and flow of intrigue, insinuation and half-truths Rolly.

I agree with Sean on many many things, but in this instance sir, you're just plain wrong. Present a counter-argument, no no no, get angry man. Pedantic surly clothes-ruining harridan - QoD, you should sue her ass. Take giggirl's advice, she knows the score.

See, I thought this was going to be some kinky shit *goes away disappointed*

I heartily recommend the Time Out book (s) of walks - all within an hour of London and all with an excellent pub lunch in the middle

?500 for a hard on??? Is that the street value of vi@gra these days?
