Hello!

...they're getting pretty darn random. Tongue

Aside from all the Boeing tanker ads (which is totally something that I've been contemplating on buying...), we've got Moosejaw ads, which is a company that only Michigan residents are likely to be aware of, and now this...

...

...does anyone here actually own (or have considered owing) anything from Burberry?*

*That's me talking with a heavy American prejudice, I don't know if anybody else (especially those from the UK) are more inclined to purchase from them...

...but it still seems awfully out of place to me. Tongue

I think that was a Gannex raincoat Foz. http://larkabout.me/2009/10/13/gannex-mill/

Burberry invented the trench coat worn by detectives like Dick Tracy & Inspector Clouseau. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trench_coat

One of my Neighbours (deceased) gave me one of those "Gannex" (Harold Wilson) Raincoats a few years ago....
...I was never brave enough to actually wear it!... Embarrassed...!

I think it was made of semi-solid, plastic sheet!... Grin...!

Paul... Grin... Grin...!
