Been around before but still provides a much needed chuckle. THE TIMES – Letter of the Year: An elderly lady actually wrote this letter to her bank. Dear Sir, I am writing to thank you for bouncing my cheque with which I endeavoured to pay my plumber last month. By my calculations, three ‘nanoseconds’ mustContinueContinue reading “old woman gets her own back on banks”

simple becomes complex
Paper aeroplanes. Simple. Yes? Well, no. Apparently this is the stealth bomber of paper aeroplanes complete with fully downloadable instructions and umpteen pictures to guide you through it. I can’t be bothered. If I wanted to spend hours doing something I should buy an airfix kit. But then I would get bored.
jedi mail… the saga continues
The USPS are definitely dragging this one out. But you can now vote (for only the second time in history apparently – what the first was they don’t say) for your favourite star wars stamp. Will the jedi’s overcome the sith once more or will the US turn into the evil empire? erm.. In goodContinueContinue reading “jedi mail… the saga continues”

Turban – genius Teachers – I can imagine this going horribly wrong Poo – the original Mullet – the book is better Boobs – well come on, it is the Internet!
a kind of truman show
“Justin wears the camera 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Even in the bathroom. Even on a date.” I’m not sure I care. He’s been going for 19 days now. I bet he gets bored before the month is out. 20 minutes of waiting & I can’t get to see his world anyway.ContinueContinue reading “a kind of truman show”

In loving memory of my dad. I will miss you. Always. Do not stand at my grave and weep I am not there; I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow, I am the diamond glints on snow, I am the sun on ripened grain, I am the gentle autumn rain. WhenContinueContinue reading “gone too soon”
top marketing blogs
Bone up on the full list. Digitasian’s (and by virtue, close living relatives of me) Verdino & Armano make the top 150. I don’t. Perhaps just as well.
click… don’t click
Don’t Click is an interesting insight into the end of the clicking value exchange as we know it. Click and we will be rewarded with genius or shit. Or more clicks. Ad infinitum. Odd that they couldn’t eradicate the click on the first page, huh? Or employ this as a quick way to avoid clicking offContinueContinue reading “click… don’t click”
“hello, i’m david”
Doctor Who, aka David Tennant, concocted a unique way to introduce himself to fellow thespians on the set on Casanova. My favourite: “Hello, I’m, David and I’ll be taking you roughly from behind today.” One can only imagine what Billie Piper would say…
i’d love to have seen this creative brief
Pay some money to get a debenture seat at Lords. OK. Preferential options on tickets at Lords. OK. Access to new bar. OK. Dedicated hamper collection point. Er, what? Surely there’s more substantiation to the proposition of forking out £8k to get a seat, no first option on a seat at Lords? The home ofContinueContinue reading “i’d love to have seen this creative brief”
