I'm loving you on holiday..........
ReplyDeleteSo is this a rally cry to call the BS? xx
Laura, are you in my neck of the woods?
ReplyDeleteTHANK YOU, Laura :) You rock. Truly.

Btw, I love the hair on the last picture.
sometimes the comments in the Daily Fail are even more offensive than the journalism but in this case Alex from Sheffield has made an excellent point - he blames Eagle Eyes Action Man for there being so many shify looking 40 something year old blokes around - exactly.

ReplyDeleteAbsolute b*ll*cks, isn't it? xx
ReplyDeleteHonestly, at first I thought the piece was a parody!
ReplyDeleteExcept for the marvelous gender equality of selling the same nonsense about boys as we do with girls, this IS b*ll*cks big time. (startling image, that)
