    Christmas ads, etc

    They're kind of ok this year, I guess.. Waitrose's robin may not be quite this side of schmaltzy, but hey.. even Aldi's carrot is kinda smile-worthy.. John Lewis does the least for me of the lot (the foxes are alright), but I guess will have gone down better with those who like boxer dogs. Or kids.. or snow.. or trampolines.. or people.. or Christmas..

    BUT leave xmas out of it, and THEN - surely, surely - THIS is far & away the killer ad of December. If you've seen it, and you pretty much must have by now, meh, just watch it all over again.

    What Christmas ad's?

    I go out of my way to avoid any and all TV ad's (and as many non-TV as I can) and seasonal versions are no exception.
