Hmmm

Sounds like a dive to be honest. Like some Brit Boozer in Magaluf. I bet half my taxes get chucked over that bar on benefit day.
Ok, cool.

:shrug:

It was alright, decent kind of message, much preferable to the "big family Xmas gettogether" ads that press my buttons. This one doesn't. Pub seems a bit grim but it reminded me of us talking to the older single bloke up the pub. No harm in that, especially at Christmas. As for Xmas ads, there's only ONE I like and makes me smile every time (bastardised version):

I know it’s been said on here already but, for the life of me, I cannot see where £700 has gone on this.

Way back when I was knocking up daft little films to promote my rhino fundraising, I managed to throw this together for the princely sum of nothing whatsoever. And that’s with a longer running time, more locations and having to navigate the bureaucracy of (then) South West Trains for permission to film on the platform. They were not happy about that costume.

All I’m saying is they should give me a buzz next time. 😉

I enjoyed that, cheers!

Watching him go up the station stairs really made me chuckle.

Was absolutely delighted to hear that news. Luzzed a small donation to Save The Rhino on Giving Tuesday to help with their Indonesian habitat renewal project by way of celebration.

Anyway. I’ve absolutely hijacked this thread and taken it down a massive rhino hole. Apologies. Back to Christmas ads…

I think you took it in a good direction!
