A mournful new year

Now and again in idle un-relative-filled moments over Christmas, I pondered a Nick Hornby style top ten ads of 2007 post on the blog to commemorate the new year.

Prompted by Gerry observing that the Cadbury Gorilla was his favourite ad of 2007.

I got as far as the Skoda ad and the VW Night Driving ad. Defiantly I refused myself the inclusion of the Gorilla.

But my inspiration was snatched from beneath me when I returned to the office today to discover the terrible news that in my heartless and lengthy absence over the Christmas and New Year period, my beloved (well, he was really Sir Alan's but I think the pet becomes the property of the one that cleans him out most) golden fish, Tiger is dead Dead DEAD!

I had an almost teary moment and then remembered that I was a grown adult and feigned almost indifference. But 2008 could be a difficult and inspiration-less year.
