A combination of the booze thread and the music thread have reminded me of this:


Caffreys (ft. a sample of Jump Around by House of Pain)


You'll have to scroll down to find it.


I'm not Irish, nor have ever been to the Emerald Isle but I bloody love a pint of Caffreys, that track and this advert.

Birds eye potato waffles - so waffley versatile


Where on earth dfid the copy writer get off with that one


Almost as good as the old advert for United Chocolate biscuits


"My name is Stan, and I am a Fan, I eat United and I am delighted" ???


Top top advert for me is the White Horses Guinness one (he watches, he waits)


Also love the current car one taht starts "Dad, where do I come from...." and finishes "... that's so cool as Jimmy Jones only comes from Scotland"

I've never met a woman who didn't like that ad, my 3 female housemates loved it, they t5hought it was pretty sexy, even up to the point where they started fantasising about the guy behind the suit...( I did fool one of them, telling them that it was a real gorilla )

Persil are showing adverts marking 100 years at the moment and one of the clips shown is of the young man who wants a clean shirt but it is in the wash so he does it himself and whilst reading the instructions on the persil box he tips it all over the floor and says "Oh mum" in a slightly bemused way


Years since i have seen that advert and brought a smile to my face


Now if only Ben was advertising beef burgers again !!!

I remember a similar


Yes, I remember that ad very well! But for some reason thought it was for Memorex, i.e. the 'is it live or is it Memorex' ads. Unless they had one almost identical...?!

    • Wouldn't it make more sense to ask the guy who posted the rumours for the source of the information? The Crown & Greyhound refurb was a big job - not surprising that it took longer than just a simple repainting. But renovating the Grove would be even bigger because it's totally wrecked, and there's a shortage of skilled labour and much more expensive materials now...
    • Rather bizarrely, I received a text from TJ surgery offering this service. To be clear, no data was asked for in the text so I don't suspect a scam but surely this is dodgy? Where does my DNA info end up and who would have access? I'm going to the surgery on the invite date to ask precisely this.
    • I used Emmaus https://emmaus.org.uk/slc/ to clear my grandfathers house last year. They were great. They all charge for this service so will come and give you a quote first.  
    • Hi, does anyone know of any charities or companies that can come and clear your house to be donated for a good cause? I know the British heart foundation does but wondering if there are others? We are moving overseas and hoping to donate most of our belongings in one swoop if we can! Thanks.
