We checked out the moon tonight, it appears someone has forgotten to put some money in the meter.

I note that Cadbury have ripped off the Coca Cola advert with the big brightly lit trucks delivering Xmas. Theirs have decorated roofs.

No sign of the Coke wagons....
No sign either of the latest fashion in exterior Xmas lights, the laser gun that scatters spots of light on whatever it is aimed at..... Good!
(No reindeer or vertically challenged people even in Trawden. Is there a slow down in Xmas activity?)

They have been on ITV most nights.
There was a very bright light in the sky last evening it gradually moved west!

Our moving bright lights are all airliners. No sky this morning, it has been cancelled!

We've had many Aldi stores pop up across Adelaide this year, and now we have their Christmas adverts.
They have strange looking people in them doing strange things , wearing strange Christmas jumpers and singing strange things.
They drive me nuts!! And we Aussies don't wear jumper s at Christmas.
I know I'm in my own little world, but it's OK... they know me here. :)

Can't be more weird than the strange men dancing on the advert for Moneysupermarket.com. I hate it!
At this moment there are lights in the sky in the East moving towards Manchester........

Thank God for that! You are the first to agree with me Moh. I shut my eyes when it comes on the screen......

Me too. . . .
It was bad enough when there was only one of each breed, but now they are mob handed
Repulsive indeed. I learn that they are known as 'strutters'. I wonder what the meeting at the ad agency was like when they invented it, and what kind of world they inhabit.

Finally did it generate more calls to whoever it is advertising? If so I give up. Meercats are cuter. :smile:

Meercats aren't cute in real-life but I do love them in the ads.
I would love to know who does the meercats voice.

We always enjoyed seeing the ring-tailed lemurs sunning themselves, I think it was at Whipsnade Zoo: Lemurs
