Up yours cancer… 21 Apr 2013 | 03:56 pm
Well. It’s been a while since my last post (which ended up in me being cited as a ‘turd slinger’ in The Scotsman. Such pride emanating from the Motherland… Well, in true Richard & Judy style, we go fr...
Incredinburgh? Do me a favour… 31 Oct 2012 | 12:43 am
Tourism campaigns can be exceptionally hit or miss. But this one? Well. I’ll let you be the judge. And preferably jury. And then executioner…. Iain G. Morrison loves Scotia. But I’d sooner get on the ...
Good ad / bad ad: Another lemon from British Airways 23 Oct 2012 | 12:31 am
Oh British Airways. What has happened to thee? Gone are the years of your beloved ads. Gone are the days you could lay claim to being the world’s favourite airline. And now, it seems gone are the days...
New Facebook ad. And chairs…? 5 Oct 2012 | 12:23 am

Truth or dare? The new fragrance. By Madonna. 3 May 2012 | 07:16 am
Where to start? It’s all getting just a wee bit tired. The re-use of the ‘Truth or dare’ title is almost acceptable. But there it ends. There is a snippet of that movie (which I can’t find), where on...
Ikea do TV’s? 18 Apr 2012 | 07:34 am
If a couple of years ago, someone told me I’d be considering buying my next tellybox from Ikea, my response would likely have been laden with expletives. After I’d stopped laughing… This however, is ...
