Dairy Milk Rip Off

You may remember at the end of last year I posted the following video doing the rounds on Youtube of a Japaneese fella with electrodes strapped to his face, that in turn "twitched" his face in time with the music. Something that has become something of "a youtube phenomenon"

Well looks like the folks at Cadbury's "un" creative agency Fallon, have once again borrowed a good idea from youtube for their own gains. No electrodes attached - (there are probably Health and Safety laws preventing them from doing that to children) but with a bit of CGI and a classic 80's soundtrack they have created the same effect in their new advert for Dairy Milk

Here's the original



and here is their version....which is better? answers on a postcard

English Bands In Unusual Circumstances...

We've got some palm trees and an Edit Desk. Let's make a show!




It's like something familiar, but it looks slightly different. The microphones are a bit too bit, or there's a random thing at the beginning.
I will turn this into a blog in its own right.

I Wanna Live Next Door To This Guy



He'd be all like that man off Police Academy it'd be ace.

Ringham (belated) RIP

We should certainly remember him, but Ringham's not the only one who's late. Why publish the obit this week? And where's the sub-editor at?

the good old boys in ballina.......



Ballina
The town has some notable architecture, including the 15th-century Moyne Abbey, and St Muredach's Cathedral, which is the Cathedral Church of the Diocese of Killala. Work on the Cathedral began in 1827. The stone was quarried locally and the roof and ceiling were completed before the Great Famine (1845). The spire was completed in 1855 and by 1875 the organ had been commissioned.
