    What's 'not very PC' about that ad, light? :confused:

    Most definitely, siz. And, much to the amusement of the locals, spread on bread, with sugar. :rotfl:

  • Rog2 - its fine for me, wasn't having a go at all - said tongue in cheek. Sure the animal rights folks would have a go - wasn't that why these adverts were removed in the first place? Personally I think they were great and still remember them fondly. Everything's gone too PC these days, common sense would be a much better tool to use!!

    ahh...mince pies well...

    We've been 'giving' boxes of mince pies to our customers this week - have had to take big cartons of them out in the van with me. :eek:
    I think I have had enough for the whole festive season. :o:o
