I was reading in the paper this morning that "Chums" lifestyle catalogue for seniors has been banned , as it was featuring sex toys and porn videos,[ possibly agree with the latter!]
The advertising watchdog banned the catalogue after receiving complaints that it was offensive. Kill joys!!
Give the poor old dears a chance for a bit of titillation, I say!!

"A mail order catalogue aimed at pensioners has been banned from featuring raunchy adverts for sex toys and porn videos."

The adverts were banned, Nonu, not the actual catalogue! grin

They were just trying to encourage the readers to get "chummy"! grin

Anyone who reads 'Yours' magazine (highly recommended BTW) which is aimed at the more mature. Will have seen the adds at the back for sex toys
and why not? they might make someone's day grin

Oh er Im off to local newsagents as we speak...........wink

It does seem a bit mean. The reasoning behind the ban was apparently that it could cause offence and/or alarm to 'very elderly' consumers...hmm
