    What would you give for love ?

    Thank goodness the appalling slew if vacuous perfume adverts are over.

    Gormless people shouting into the sky or shoving their heads aggressively into the camera. All to try and persuade the gullible that these are not overpriced bottles of tat.

    I get why perfume adverts are so vacuous given its tough to say “buy this perfume, it smells great” but surely car ads could actually quote a few specs, functions and details rather than just make out that all cars are driven by young happy cool smiley twenty five year olds on the way to some great social event ?

    I'm reliably informed that the going rate varies according to services required.

    Vodka and Um Bongo was my pre-drink of choice, back in the day when I used to go to Area every Wednesday night.

    Albufeira last year with a few mates this turned out to be the drink of choice during the day by the pool. Wonderful combination

    Are you serious? It was Albufeira that started it for us. Summer 2002. Brought it back to Watford with us!

    Um Bongo seems to have disappeared. Thought I'd add it to the weekly Sains order based on the above but no supermarket seems to have it in stock anymore.

    Absolutely serious! Gallons of um bongo on sale at Lidl and their own brand vodka Rachmaninoff!

    Heading back again in May, I’ll have one for you
