My 65 year old mother went "aggghhhhh" and was moved by the advert when I saw her watch it the other day.

You have to give it to them, they know how to take a dull product and get people interested in it; it's tragic but amusing!

I don't, yet somehow have 4 of the damn things taking up space. Not the baby one - yet! I was basically forced to buy my insurance from that site this year, the advertising clearly works.

Pretty obvious, really. There's a major problem in Ukraine so they've got stuck on the way from Meerkova.

Oleg is worth around £50 on eBay at the moment. I sold two a few months ago (when they were really in demand) and made £130 thank you very muchly.

Despite being a hard bitten, Misanthropic old Curmudgeon I bloody love the Meerkats, they come on and I am like a four year old, damn those endearing, animated examples of marketing anthropomorphism, though I am not entirely sure why an African Mammal would end up in Eastern Europe ?

Still, better than all the other insurance advertising devices put together which, frankly, annoy the st out of me, especially the fact they identify with the fact and make a point about it, that is even more annoying, s.

Why would children want toys from insurance companies? It all seems a bit weird to me.
