If that doesn't work - I'll just have a lazy day :xmas-smiley-020:

Well I'm at work now but still in my bed in my mind:xmas-smiley-029:

Totally agree. Is it just me of does there seem to be a perfume add on every other advert. There must be double figures of different perfume adverts as well. One in paticular I find really annoying. I cant remember the perfume but there is so much going on it, it doesnt really make any sense.

As for mens aftershave adverts, it used to be the old spice product/advert or nothing, when men were men. None of this mens sensitive skin products and the like. Pussies.
Oh yeah and the hi-Karatie (not spelt right) aftershave. Cheap and very dodgy lol

Morning Jeff, Jay, Steve, Andy and Rod! Sorry about lack of replies yesterday; was a nightmare with no stand time for four hours! An RTC caused significant delays... How is everyone? Jay you're right about all these adverts about aftershave etc. I've always been worried about the message given when one buys aftershave/perfume... Are they saying the person receiving the gift smells?

Those were the days when Brut & Aqua Manda could kill at 10 paces....advertising was a lot more in your face (& splash it all over) in those days...

The Old Spice ads lacked reality, ie running around the bathroom screaming til the nipping subsided! Don't forget 'Enry Cooper & Barry Sheen with "splash it all over" Brut :xmas-smiley-020:

Yes they are Men had no trouble picking up women for thousands of years...now we are supposed to be pampered, moisturised, fragrant, coiffured-coffi-caffeinated-cofoiu - have great hair and still be ready for action, delivering those boxes of Milk Tray etc.
