Random musings and general banter.

Is that all broadcasts or certain presenter broadcasts?

Probably all the broadcasts.
Very often when a spelling mistake occurs it remains unchanged.
Even on the same item on multiple different occasions.

He just wants something to hold on to! I could suggest something, but Muttley would only be shocked. And what is pacifically? I think he means specifically.

Why do they talk about some items for nearly an hour. One item in an hour is ridiculous. Their rival can do 4 to 5 in an hr

Yes I know totally ridiculous.
I don't really buy anything much from IW, and not since March this year.
If I was going to have a cheeky purchase I think I'd have made my mind up within 10 minutes?

I am very fussy. I used to be a printer / print finisher in my former life (my first job), so I notice spelling mistakes. It's ingrained in me. And when I see them on TV or anywhere, shopping telly or otherwise, it bugs me no end. Professional? Hmmmpf.

And just coz I'm here talking mistakes. I remember years back when Boris was in charge, on the front page of a major newspaper IN the headline, there was a spelling mistake. :O Then wandering over a European fashion site, male clothing, I saw a print on the back of a shirt that missed a double S at the end and spelled it Hapines. I was so tempted to message them, but as English isn't their first language.... but it did annoy me

I loves me my off topics. But once I get started

If you're on about the stuffed toys. Cute, but they remind me of the sorts of toys you got in the 70s. Very dated and amateurish. The kind of things that catch fire as soon as you look at them. And as I'm watching, there's no sound, and I haven't got the tv on mute either. Again, very professional. No one has told him to stop talking, as no one can hear him. Sound on other channels, so it's not just me

That singing Santa would drive me crazy. My son, when he was small had a singing snowman that had a Japanese accent, it was funny at first, then you just wanted to smash it up. I think he still has it somewhere.

Are people buying these £9.99 stuffed snowmen in twos, Rambo? We haven’t sold one, Master… Right? People multi-buying in huge numbers… Buy one as a surrogate companion, okay? Maybe your partner has left you for man of the male persuasion, okay? Cuddle this stuffed Santa to forget, Right? Give to your dog to cuddle…Oh the head has come off, Right??

Why have the figures on the balcony of the house got condoms on their heads?

FFS, put a sock in it, has he been supping the Blue Magic again?

Yes, I'm easily shocked. Feel free to give details, I'll cover my eyes and put my fingers in my ears

Wreath? Looks like a hanging basket to me.

It can be long or short, hard or soft. That's right, I'm on about a sausage roll.

Have you bought one yet?. Seriously tempted to buy for a colleague I'm not keen on!

I never for one minute thought of anything else...

I would have more fun with a sausage roll, that's for sure.

I've never seen a soft sausage roll. They always have a firmness to them. Although, if they get too hot, they do have a slight droop.
