Far too many young lads being caught and prosecuted for delivering pizzas as they don't have business use on their policies. if they did, it would over-ride any money they made. Stupid risk and employers don't tell them as they zoom round with their stick on adverts, begging Police attention.
I didn't get "caught" doing it 6 nights a week, for 21 years. Happy days smile

I think some fair points have been made about my Luddite ways. I'm 68 years old. Just to say far more people order by actually visiting the shop, than deliveries and collections combined. Just Eat and similar are just a drop in the ocean.

(I guested one Saturday night for a busy local rival - several drivers on and I did about 60, of which 3 were Just Eat, and 2 of those were in other nearby towns, so wasted a lot of my evening.I am not a fan of theirs, which probably colours my opinion. My own shop told the Hungry House/Just Eat salesmen to try their technique elsewhere.)

The Trivago adverts are slowly heading towards cringe level tbh.

The new one has the lady in the ads getting into the back of a taxi, listens to said driver reel off his dream holiday but saying it's too hard to organise, so she then sets it all up via the site on his behalf and the ad ends with the entire family pictured at their "dream destination".

Info online suggests this could be their next run of adverts where she'll be, seemingly, setting up (supposedly real) customers dream holidays.

I find the woman in those ads bloody annoying and cannot understand the tumescence she seems to provoke in some PHers.

On a postive note, I am currently amused by the McDonald's advert that satirises those po-faced xmas perfume adverts brilliantly.

Also enjoying the 'lady products' advert with the very flexible girl doing yoga. Got to learn not to look up from my tablet so sharply when I hear the ad's music start.

Yes to both of these hehe

The McDonald's advert just needs a "Ooo by eck that's gorgeous" or similar at the end of it. Yeah I know its not Boddingtons, but I'm sure they could do something similar.

I get the feeling that high-leg 1980s swimsuits are coming back in fashion. Womens ones that is, I really don't want blokes in high-leg swimwear.

Someone called her a Bogan once ,an Australian Chav of sorts.

Harsh !

I also like her but Trivago have released about a dozen new ads ,so she's just getting too much airtime currently.

Exactly. Pleasant looking, at best, but I'd agree with "very ordinary", or even plump for 'plain'. And definitely annoying. And yes, I know I'm not supposed to start sentences with 'and'.

Have to say I much prefer the Admiral Insurance girl, very easy on the eye in a milfy sort of way.

This MUST have been on before, apologies, but I don't have time to check. The Moneysupermarket.com advert with the Action Men in boxers.

What demographic are they trying to appeal to there ?

Can't help but think they're seriously restricting their market.

Speaking of Admiral they've launched a new advert based around a fancy dress office party at Admiral HQ. Tedious at best.

Confused also appear to have sacked off Corden (yay) but started up their new advert featuring actor Tim Murphy narrating a long diatribe about modern life.

When there is nothing else on I quite like to stick the Now 80's and Now 90's channels on (368 + 371 on Sky).

Good tunes, but spoilt by adverts, ESPECIALLY that Proactiv one with that annoying wee cow Jorgie Porter. I wonder if she know how fking annoying her twee squeaky voice is and how much I want to punch her in the throat.
