OK...it's Friday night, I'm goin' out for a while to shoot pool and slam Wild Turkey. When I get back, I jest may be in one o' them postin' kinda moods.
Anyway, I thought I would start a thread for you to have fun with 'till I get back.

What is your favorite commercial? New or old, clip links appreciated, but not neccessary.

I'll start out with a couple of my favs.

The all time #1 is....
The EDS cat herding commercial.

Whitbread Trophy is "the pint that think's it's a quart" from the 1970s

Crap beer, just like the light beers or largers. No taste like a cask conditioned ale, but a laugh a minute ad!
It's good to be back amongst friends and colleagues

Everyone's A Fruit & Nut-Case 1977

Everyone's a Fruit and Nut case
It keeps you going when you toss the caber,
Whatever you are doing.
Punting, canoeing
It's nutrious and beauticious
To judiciously be chewing.

Everyone's a Fruit and Nut case
If only it could help improve my singing,
A healthy recreation.
What a combination
Cadbury's — Fruit and Nut.

(We make these up as we go along, you know.)

[Frank Muir; Tune: Tchaikovsky's "Dance of the reed flutes"]
