Easy Target, Easy Like Sunday Morning...

Obviously, the adverts for plates and dolls and figurines in the Sunday newspaper colour magazines are always good for a laugh, but sometimes they surprise even me.

Today, I spy an advert for this delightful Diana figurine from the Bradford group.

The description says "A breathtaking vision of style and grace, Princess Diana melted the hearts of millions around the globe. With her radiant beauty, engaging personality and stunning sense of style, Diana captivates the imaginations of people from all walks of life. And ten years after her passing, she’s still considered to be one of the most beloved women in the world."

Which is all very well and good, but until this morning, I didn't realise she was nineteen feet tall.

Nineteen centimetres, man! Didn't you read the advert properly... ;0)

Oh well! I suppose it makes a change from the ads for walk-in baths and stair lifts. But at least these items are useful.
