Advertising is pervasive in this day and age, it sells us everything from deoderant to washing powder. But it doesnt really sell us the actual stuff does it ............it sells us the life style with which we would love to become accostomed. Laser eye surgery advert is a case in point, yes laser eye surgery would be a good solution to those of us who are a little myopic BUT according to the advert it makes us better people, more confident, more outgoing, better parents, better sportsman and women, even though the majority of us dont Ride mountain bikes or Ski cross country ........If we believe the advert .........get the eye surgery and WE WILL!!
I have already talked about the orgasmic hair shampoo.................Why are we sooooo gullible. Also the new trend to making the adverts louder than the programs on the TV is very annoying.........or is it that I am getting older and grumpier LOL
Why do we spend all of our well earned cash on things we dont need. Take loans out to pay off loans that we took out to buy things we dont need...............confused? yes me too.
The current love of my life is my Sky Plus box (which yes I know I dont really need) it allows me to fast forward through the adverts!!!! YAY
So this means that I no longer need to Challenge churchil; Get a loan, Have celebrity prices, or watch 12 year olds pretend to be 40 so that we will be STUPID enough to believe that we can hold back the processes of time by putting more and more chemicals on our skin......................Lets face it girls ...................Wrinkles Happen........Deal with it!!!!

I have read your blogs up to 19/8 and agree so strongly that I have nothing to add. I will continue to look for opportunities for more interesting replies lol.
Are the ads louder these days? ‘No’ is the official answer. All programs have to stay within what is laid down as an acceptable audible range. So is it just our imagination? No, the audible range of an advert typically hovers between the maximum loudness permissible and just below the maximum loudness permissible. Thus they seem unnaturally loud.
Keep them coming,
