This ad has been banned by London Transport, but I’m afraid it made me laugh (just for the record, I plan to be buried. I’m not a fan of extreme heat).

About Me
I live with my husband in Devizes in Wiltshire where I spend my time writing, reading, riding (I am the lucky owner of a beautiful horse, Blue), and keeping up with my four children and an increasing number of small grandchildren (eight so far). I was for many years a nurse and a Relate counsellor. I have taught creative writing both at a local college and a prison, and I review a wide variety of items - including books - for the Amazon Vine programme.I write to death row prisoners in America, being a life-long opponent jof the death penalty. And I spend too much time blogging..
My Books
Below are the books I have written.
Ruth Robinson's Year of Miracles
Women Behaving Badly
Dead Ernest
Cassandra's Secret
Saddick will ban anything that isn't covered from head to toe. No sense of the ridiculous have Pakistanis. Strange really when one considers what they can be like.
ReplyDeleteStrange indeed, Adrian.
DeleteI love it!!! Do you know why it was banned? Was it the bikini lady or the breaking of a taboo with making "fun" of a serious topic?
ReplyDeleteI think the latter, Meike. Glad you enjoyed it! One friend of mine was shocked 😯
DeleteI think it's a great advert but then I have always had a sense of the ridiculous. I also once worked as an undertaker's assistant which might condition my view of the advert.
ReplyDeleteI’m glad you like it, Graham. It’s a Marmite ad, I think. But I loved it!
