Who finds this slightly concerning?

This appeared in my local evening news recently :-

Picasa Web Albums - scrivenger - add (http://picasaweb.google.co.uk/lh/photo/wzxWpG64PN1Lqk96DDGNqQ)



Now forgetting the rights and wrongs of the advert I just find it a little sad that this once great industry that we work in has succumbed to placing adds alongside chip shops, taxi drivers and indian take aways. Is it me being romantic or do others feel the same?

At least it is not next to the massage services offered.

Seriously: all and any form of advertising is good value.

I suspect that this cost less them 100 squid.

Any busy executive passing thru Manchester, might be reading the relevent section of the newspaper and see the advert.

OR perhaps it is aimed at the footballers wives who live in the locale.

OR perhaps it was a bet.

I personally think that the former Juniper restaurant being up for sale is more upsetting!!

That Sandwich Bar in Didsbury looks quite appealing for a career change.... ;)

... fabulous marketing. That person should be given a place on any multinational company board!
