Stick lady g on the horse and you've got two ads in one, that would save time

Love the horses too 1974 !

However all those adds trying to convince people (especially mothers) that unless you use extra stuff in your laundry,and to clean your floors and worktop, your children may be exposed to (shock, horror!) GERMS shock

Once the little things are on the floor and crawling, they will be touching everything and putting random things into their mouths!

And used a lot of shampoo.

I bet she had a lot of dandruff.

Lady Godiva?

What slows you down?The massive amount of foamy shampoo or dandruff?grin
If that nuddy woman ran in a race it would slow down all the other competitors.

beautiful black horses racing across the beach to meet all those people who have got up before dawn to meet them.
that wouldn't be me then (before dawn? confused)

I hope horses don't get dandruff.

It slows you down lemongrove

However, the advantage is that it could fly into the eyes of anyone just behind you and cause them to trip

Hi Phoenix.
The one that annoys me at the moment is the chap who asks why you have not tried to get your misplaced PPI back, and do you not know that there is a deadline!
Time that company take their share of your claim, you will not have anything left worth bothering about judging by the small print shown briefly on the screen.

However, on a good side, the TV advert that always brings a lump to my throat, is the Lloyds advert with all those beautiful black horses racing across the beach to meet all those people who have got up before dawn to meet them. There is something just utterly magical about it.

Nearly all ads annoy me, so I like to record programmes and then whizz all the ads through at top speed.
The one that used to annoy me most, a naked woman in the shower washing her hair with an orgasmic smile on her face was the same ad that DH liked the best.grin

And of course it could fly into your eyes, temporarily blinding you and causing you to stagger out of your lane...

kittylester Thu 28-Jun-18 20:50:32

phoenix, it's a well known fact that dandruff is really, really heavy!

phoenix Thu 28-Jun-18 20:44:44

Just now, for shampoo.

The ad focussed on sport, and winning, finished with the voice over "let nothing hold you back, not even dandruff"

Not even dandruff? shock Is dandruff known to affect your running/jumping/throwing ability?

I could just about tolerate "let nothing hold you back, especially not dandruff" but even that would have me harrumphing!

Any ads that really annoy you?
