I actually want to throttal the idiot(s) who approved the ad, I am guessing they were presented with various concepts for new ad campaign and somehow decided that ad was the one to go with.

I hate the advert, and wrote on here about it, also the one about the girl who cannot go, because it is all hard, she goes boss eyed when she is telling the others at the Cafe table.

My OH always says look at her gone boss eyed through straining.

My cousin sent me a video of Billy Connolly talking about taking laxatives before a Colonoscopy, OH and I were in stitches, we had both gone through this, and could see the funny side of it.

Anyway hope the liquorice works Mac

i know they are trying to sell products but I find some of the adverts really distasteful,Surely they can come up with better adds than wanting to go to the mates Paul for a crap!! Sorry but it makes me cringe seeing that advert.
Standards do seem to have dropped or been laxed on what is acceptable

Jean you are absolutely right.I worked for Unilever and remember years ago talking their advertising dept who said its the adverts that get people talking that are doing the trick.Mind you some of em are shooting themselves in the foot cos I would never buy cos the advert annoys me so !! lol

Mac - Old Geezer - I was prescribed a product call LACTOLUSE, but you can buy it over the counter, for a largish bottle at under £5, and it works for me. I take a swig at last thing at night ready for the next day. Don't go out until you've GONE
Good Luck

That advert gets on my nerves too and him trying to be masterful with his mother - little blighter. I would like to take him by the ear and march him up to their loo and say SIT until you S.it! LOL

OH cannot stand the other advert. He says fancy discussing things like that in a cafe. I did say that we women do generally discuss all subjects no matter what they are or where we are! But you would have thought by now her "problem" was rectified! PMSL


~~~waves to Mac~~~~ - hope you get relief soon .

No-one has ever accused me of being a prude but I think the advert is vile.

Mac... you are quite right, I REALLY wanted to know that.
You sound like my husband... are all men like that??
It would make me feel a little better knowing that I was not alone with a *rude* husband.

So happy to see you back to normal... whatever normal may be.
