    That's right, it was a couple of years ago, I wonder if the company changed their mind or whether Iggy just thought "f**k 'em" and took the cash anyway.

    I can't really tell because I don't have a sufficiently up to date flash player apparently.

    And it's tequila and whipped cream apparently.

    RIP Lemmy, you old reprobate.

    Obviously combined a morning glory with wetting the bed with Xmas excitement.

    Was his hair wet?

    Is that the solution if you haven't saved for your pension, or does it only work on fish?

    But since it's from JL it has a 5 year warranty. Not all bad.

    Not familiar with that one zeity, and Google isn't helping. Are you sure it wasn't you who filled the bath with vodka?

    But 'car insurance', that's just such a lame product to sell out for. At least Lemmy chose beer (I'll overlook the fact that it was French).

    The John Lewis ad has been heavily talked about the past few weeks.

    Not sure why. Am I missing some subliminal message?
