All of them.

Especially the ones with CGI animals being all Disneyfied bouncing about on trampolines or performing some other inane anthropomorphised activity.

Oh, and the blasted Coca Cola Holidays are comin' holidays are comin' one too. People are actually gullible enough to make a point of going to see a truck full of fizzy blandness Rolling Eyes

Although not Christmas I will admit to having bit of a thing for that girl on the Trivago ads Whistle Steve.
Owned numerous Land Rover vehicles of all shapes and sizes over the decades.
Current Defender: A non tarts hand-bagged Puma 110 XS USW.

[Insert something impressive here such as extensive list of previous Land Rovers or examples of your prestigeous and expensive items, trinkets, houses, bikes, vehicles etc]

If I see one more Tesco advert I will probably throw a brick at the screen… The latest one having so-called ‘funnywoman’ (except she isn’t!) Jones ‘shopping’ in Tesco and moaning about ‘Christmas’ and hoping to ‘manage’… The silly patronising fat cow will have no problem with Christmas or Christmas shopping (either getting it or affording it)

Miller is also a git for going along with this Censored and may I say their substandard Terry and June impressions make me sick… If Tesco want to improve Christmas sales and lure in customers, they could do better than having two totally unfunny actors and make the adverts better.

I will get me coat!!!! For those who like Welsh Mountains and narrow boats have a look at my videos and photos at..

Have I missed it, or did the DFS sale finish Sunday?

I can still get Christmas delivery from SCS though. Now tell me this A) How the hell am I going to wrap and hide the three piece suite from the eyes of Mrs Rashers till the morning of the 25th an B) I'm really not sure it's what she had in mind for a Christmas present (the new Steam Iron last year went down like a sack of lead!)

I have started to record the programmes I want to watch, then fast forward when the adverts come on, turns a 60 minute programme into a 50 minute or less one. Don't make old people mad.
We don't like being old in the first place,
so it doesn't take much to Censored us off.

I love 'em all and I'm a sucker for their spiel…

I've arranged for two quid a month to be sent to blind people, three quid for the aged, two quid for Battersea Dogs home in addition to my fiver to the PDSA, I've adopted a donkey for two quid but I reckon my three quid leopard is much better value. For fifteen quid someone's gonna 'phone a krinkly, and I finance the water supply of half the villages in Africa and help to Syrian refugee children. But my monthly lottery ticket on behalf of the RNLI has never won anything, and I'm still waiting to hear what my “Hero” actually did.

I only wish I had some cash left over to buy presents for my family.

The only one of the latest crop I have any time for is the tk maxx one with the family beat boxing the theme from pulp fiction, good association Christmas and a violent quentin tarantino film, awesome. Rhubarb and custard let fly with their secret weapon.
