I've got to be honest - as soon as I saw it was advertising Lambrini, I wouldn't give a monkeys who they had in there

For the advertising to reflect the reality surely it should feature a brood of 14 year old girls wretching down the local park?

Re: Drinks adverts told 'no sexy men'
Frankly I'd hate to be making a living in television ads these days...There are so many ways to offend overtly and even when not trying to offend..
The road to hell....ecetera,ecetera,ecetera.

Well, you were the Goyaesque beauty to whom I was referring so I think you've found the right one there

Hmmm, never been referred to as 'Goyaesque' before. Normally there's a reference to Picasso or Dali, but never Goya
Having said that, after drinking Lambrini, I'd probably look like my face was upside-down whilst trying to suck my cheeks back up my throat, so it's all good

Well I hadn't really finished the description. Goyaesque in torso, Dali in face, Picasso in mind.

Hey, I'll be alright - Russ knows I'm both visually and follically impaired
Couple that with the fact that I'm an idiot, and I'm sure I'll get away with it.

Fair point. Gulp, with my good looks, luxuriously full head of hair, piercing insight and superior intellect, I could be in trouble though.

Only from the Woefully Misinformed About Your Appearance Police
Anyway, didn't I hear that you were actually forbidden by law to leave the house without a bag on your head?
Hey, that's it! Your full name! It's obviously Andy Lookslikejohnmerrick
