I guess the best bit about ads is we can choose whether we watch them or not.

Got another one..................(please don't think I'm a professional whinger)

The Body Slim ad.

Would you buy a used car from this bloke?

Would you give him your credit card details?

I take the radical step of pressing the MUTE button to adds I don,t like, and look away.Thee traveloges on vast are annoying at times , also. Bill

 Don't mind the traveloges now that they give you an idea of where they are. Alan and I visited our daughter in Sydney recently and detoured off the Hume to visit Adelong because we saw it on TV and wanted to see the river. Turns out it is an old gold  mining area and very interesting. (They also have a very nice patchwork shop there, so I got double the value) Brenda.

No way Rosie, that ad drives me nuts, can't stand his voice. he can 't be very healthy with a voice like that.

Also the guy with the fake tan on the morning shows ads. Whats with that guy, doesn't he know when he's had enough of the tanning sessions.

Ads that annoy me are the ones that, after I have watched them, I have no idea what the ad was for.
