Talking of Christmas adverts. What do you think of the Amazon advert, where 3 older ladies relive their childhood by sledging down a hill.
Personally I think this was made with the US/Canadian market in mind. Considering the billions of pounds profit they make in this country couldn't they have given us something a little more appropriate to the U.K.
I live in South West Wales, we very rarely see any frost, let alone snow. Rain of course by the bucketfuls.
Ditto! Also from SW Wales!

I've just been away to look at a few adverts and confess the M&S food one with the mittens drove me mad. The mittens (Left and Right) seem to be named opposite to the actual mitten they really are.
At first they are correct I think, but then the next scene they are wrong.
Whatever they want to sell me I'm not sure as the naming if the mittens is a huge problem for me
Has anyone else seen this one?
I haven’t seen it but from your description I think there’s possibly a gender positive message in there.
Like it,
The advert - called Snapper, The Perfect Tree - follows a young boy as he lovingly nurtures a seed bought at a local market, thinking he is growing a Christmas tree.
But the outcome is more Little Shop Of Horrors than evergreen fir.
The fast-growing plant is soon snapping at the dog and gobbling decorations - until his antics go too far and he is dragged out into the cold.
A traditional tree goes up in Snapper's place as he watches through the window from the frosty garden.
