I normally have a lot of time for Alison, considering all she has been through and how she has come out the other end with such positivity. (I know there are others out there that are suffering through cancer or other life-altering illnesses, again if this is you or someone you know I wish them 'GodSpeed'), of tack slightly, I was however watching her dimonique show last night and three things really irritated me
1) The fact that she indulged (yet again) in the fact her niece who lived in Australia had recently got engaged, we saw a picture of her intended and the ring she got etc..
2) The fact that she just glibly mentioned that she would be 'popping' over their to the wedding (I suppose this isn't really an annoyance as such, just a fleeting thing that I am letting the world go by and haven't even left 'England's green and pleasent land'. (I can't really blame this on Alison though as people do try and get to family weddings if they can and I know that she does earn the money etc...).
3) The true 2nd is how presenters (it was just that Alison did this last night so the 'axe' falls upon her to mention it. Is when presenters state that they should have got a particular product (curiously the one that is currently limited), because they didn't prepare themselves beforehand and purchase it. Now cynical me is (95%) is thinking that they are just doing this as a 'sales ploy', (5% only is giving them the benefit of the doubt). My point is this (yes there is usually a point to my ramblings, tis you have to meterphorically go on a 'Cleaveland Way' hike to get there), they prep the show, they are always telling us how quick it is to 'tap the app', therefore are you telling me that they are not able to spend 12 seconds (or however long), to purchase the item, rather than being 'on air' lamenting at what may have been.
I know for a fact Kathy Taylor and Chuntley and possibly Anne Dawson have purchased whilst live on-air, Micael (one day I will spell his name correctly), states that he 'never shops whilst working' (which is kind of a contradiction as his work, is to encourage others to 'waste' (sorry spend) their money purchasing 'tat' (sorry, carefully selected goods as sourced by the most excellent buyers)!
I will shut-up now as this cow wants some fodder!
