Our Prices Are Sofa King Low

Hmm, seems the UK advertising watchdog the Advertising Standards Agency (ASA) have a problem with this British furniture retailer’s ad and have banned them from using their offensive catchy phrase “Our prices are Sofa King low”. Hmm, not very quick off the mark,  Sofa King have been using the slogan for 9 years.

RIP Davy Jones

Davy Jones the actor and musician who became famous for his role in the wacky TV series The Monkees and for taking Marcia Brady to the school dance has died at the age of 66 from a  suspected heart attack. Davy Jones started his acting career on the English TV show Coronation Street as Ena Sharple’s grandson in 1961. For a short time he left acting to train to be a jockey but he soon found himself returning to the stage in the musical Oliver. In 1965 Jones big break came in the surprisingly successful US show the Monkees, as the lead singer of the Beatles inspired band. In his later years he continued to sing and act. Hey, hey ….

That Old Black Magic

Did you hear something?

If you live in Namibia be on the look out for a dog-pig hybrid creature that is scaring the crap out of the locals. The mutant is described as mostly white, with a doglike head, hairless back and the shoulders of a giant pig. If you see it , RUN!!! One official told the local newspaper “This is an alien animal that the people have not seen before. We don’t have a forest here, only bushes. So, this must be black magic at play.” Yep, must be. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, sleep with one eye open!
