Literal shipwreck

I am still giggling! Elegran, thanks for the laugh.

This ad is on par with the Language School, advertising years ago in a Danish newspaper.

The Language School claimed to teach you a new language , so you could speak it fluently in next to no time, but as it called itself Babel I had my doubts!

WIWYA I thought that it might be something akin to an ‘infinity pool’ - I don’t understand them either.

I honestly did think that a ‘touchable view’ was a thing. 😆

I suppose that I wasn’t prepared to accept that an ad that has been written (who on earth gets paid for writing this stuff!?) ; voiced; produced; edited etc can still contain such an absolute howler

Obviously you were missing the view, FannyCornforth - your arms must be too short too. 💪

I’ve heard that ad (literally) hundreds of times too, and I’ve wondered what on earth they were talking about.
I honestly thought that I was missing something.

That one has been on LBC for ages, and it really annoys me too!

Good idea, Elegran, but I bet they would quibble about our arms being too short, and no responsibility would be accepted for short arms.

The only time I could do that was passing through a lock on the Danube. The view was a dank wall, so I didn’t bother!

Oh dear! Sounds a bit too exciting for me. I prefer my views to be just a little bit further away.

We could book a cruise and (after we get back home) ask for a refund and compensation because the view was more than an arms length away.

Wasn’t there that cruise ship that the captain ran aground? Maybe wanting the passengers to be able to touch the view as per the brochure. It ended tragically I seem to recall.

You are hilarious

Think I'll give it a literal miss as well Elegran

Not a good advert!😁
