The coke add
Emma, I saw it twice last night, it feels too early. Things are getting very Christmassy!

It’s changed too! I don’t like Santa sat at his desk before and after the lorry. He’s still not winking either.
The only advert I like at the moment is good old Kevin the Carrot. It’s weird as silly adverts like the Famous Grouse and its theme tune remind me of Christmas. So I like hearing that one. Still no John Lewis yet though....

I watched it being discussed on the news this morning and thought how mad things are becoming. I hope the John Lewis advert will be better this year as I wasn’t too overwhelmed by Moz last year.

I can’t even remember last years JL add, it must have been truly underwhelming! I think sometimes the smaller supper markets like Aldi and Morrison’s are actually better. I say bring back the Iceland add, Christmas is an ideal time to send out an important message, and in a Christmas add, cos everyone is watching closely.

I used to love the Iceland Christmas one that played to ‘Driving Home for Christmas’ by Chris Rea way back in the 90’s. I still like that track when I hear it.

I don't know but in recent years it has all become a bit of a multi million pound film making competition between them all and at the end of the day folk just go to where they normally go for their Christmas stuff

The only reason the doom sayers don't like the Iceland add is because they haven't removed palm oil from their products and their sales would decrease. I have sponsored orang-utans for many years, International Animal rescue linked below, featured in Daily mail and on TV. In fact I sometimes don't bother with Xmas pressies and send it to the Rang tans! I am sooooo popular at Christmas with my friends for that one!
It's a disgrace it's banned when we have cruelty to cats - Mog one year !! https://www.internationalanimalrescue.org/
