Ok, so clearly no one has clicked the link which I posted yesterday. Here it is again: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xfiqrkV_ZqI. This is partly my fault, I think, as I gave it a rather poor introduction. Let me just try to impress upon you the sheer genius of this clip ( Read more... )

having grown up on the snowman, I found that absolutely hilarious and clever. It makes me want to go out a purchase what ever drink that was. (Is it worth drinking?)

It was Irn-Bru (pronounced Iron Brew). Personally, I think it's revolting, which is sad, because they really do have fantastic commercials (check out Irn-Bru 32's promotional site http://www.wakeywakey.tv/home.html). It's neon orange. The interesting thing about Irn-Bru is that it is the only soda produced anywhere in the world which outsells Coke products in it's home market (Scotland). If you ask a Scot, they'll tell you it's the finest drink ever, and many of the Americans and Aussies and Kiwis that I knew over there liked it too, so you may as well buy a can and taste it. You might like it. Oh, and according to Wikipedia, it's illegal in the US.
