And don't go and see the new film 'Gravity' - that cost $100m to make.


Where will it end?

What sort of masochist watches commercials out of choice these days?


With PVR machines costing less than a hundred pounds there really is no need to spoonfeed lukewarm diarrhoea into your mouth and say mmmmmmmmmm.


Quite frankly, the advert sucks satan's scaly pecker - but will no doubt strike a chord with anyone who beat a path to Kensington Palace and lay a rose, blubbering like a big baby etc etc

You don't like the advert then?

It's like peering into a toilet after the flush to watch a turd go down - and finding yourself overcome with emotion by the smoothness of its removal. I'm mean, yeah, you could - but why would you want to, given the choice?


It's slick, but then by christ it should be for a cool million.

You *Bob*?



I have an excuse: I am required to watch all manner of shite because it's part of my job. So that should I find myself sitting in Adam&Eve/DDB in front of someone wearing fashion victim sunglasses with a 'creative box' of play lego on their desk - and they ask me "hey, did you see our JL spot???" then instead of saying "no, I fast-forward all adverts because they bring nothing of interest to my life" I am able to say "YES! My body was enveloped in a curious warm glow, my heart melted - and I felt compelled to purchase a Nespresso machine and a faux-silk throw from a chain retailer sporting a slogan nobody actually understands - even the staff."

      Assistance Dogs - Autism: any experiences?

      By JMK · Posted

      https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.

      Missing Cat

      By jeffersjd · Posted

      Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068.
