Not a joke, but very, very funny. Apparently it has caused all a major ruckus


Locations are:

the Falkirk Wheel
the Forth Bridges
Glasgow’s Buchanan St
Princes St Gardens Ice Rink Edinburgh
the Loch Ness monster,
a red deer,
the Glenfinnan viaduct (Harry Potter fame),
Eilean Donan Castle,
Glasgow’s Royal Concert Hall
George Square Glasgow

:-rofl2

So called capital of Suffolk, UK.
Some people just cannot appreciate a good advert when they see one. A good mix of one of the favourite xmas TV shows and an advertisement. Great one in my opinion.

End the spot as the kid hits the snow or wait until the unseasonal brat gets up unhurt. Uuumm, I know which version I would have liked ;-))

Should make for a fun Christmas when both kids and adults watch it - go out and buy some - and re-run the snowman festivities back home.

Makes Coke Santa look like the Michael Jackson of Hip-Hop. (maybe someone else can offer a better comparison, hehe).

My non-childhood fave became A+W Root Beer; else Dandelion & Burdock (as a brit soda) knocks the socks off both Tizer or IrnBrew *wink*

Irn-bru ads were great years ago when they spoofed that other soft drink company....."Don't you know it's one of those ads; full of shiny teeth and shoulder pads"etc

Shame Irn Bru no longer tastes like Irn Bru, I remember it being quite a spicy flavour, now it just tastes like a watered down bubblegum...
