An exciting PR development
Posted: Friday, 16 December 2005 |
I know you'll be as excited as I am to know that Donald has designed this wee advert for the ticket outlets. You can print copies and give them to any likely singletons out there. Remember - no shortbread shops though.

oooh, ladies! I think we've got some stiff competition! Have you clocked the coat on the one on the left!

following the dating extravanganza with great interest - if only I had known aobut this before I married Trevor earlier this year - oh well, win some lose some. The black face ram looks quite sexy...

Would've put this to good use at the Corrie Christmas Quiz & Games Night at the hotel tonight if it wasn't so blatantly aimed at the male folk. This picture will certainly appeal to the bodachs! If Donald wants a full longship of lady vikings he better rethink his marketing strategy! However It's bound to attract the men from the other islands too giving Colin Firth and Donald a bit of competition and more choice of us lassies.

More scarily, the first full front-facing one on the left is definitely puckering up in a very saucy manner! And... is this photographic evidence of a Ness ghost? There's an eerie dark shadow in the middle foreground. Spoooooky.

It's a very old joke but what's the difference between Heaven and Lewis? A In heaven they say 'Hey you get offa my cloud' and in Lewis they say 'Hey MacLeod get off my ewe.' Pleased I got that off me chest.

I'm going to use this on my PC as flock wallpaper.

In best marketing traditions we can probably offer a good part exchange price for Trevor if you want to put him in for someone older and steadier. What sort of condition is he in ? We have buyers waiting - haven't we Peggy Ann MacLeod of 51B North Galson? Gordon the Ghillie's already put 10% deposit down on the black faced ram. He's a willing purchaser in Stromness.

Dear Calumannabel, As you are no doubt aware, we are one of the leading glossy magazines of this type in the field. As such, we would be thrilled to cover your exciting dating festival at the Dell Fank. We propose an access all areas, tick on the sheep style piece, with maybe a few exclusive interviews, a few words on the day's top styles, who's wearing what, that kind of thing, and of course we'd like to capture THAT moment when Colin Firth emerges if at all possible. Our most senior reporter, Pulitzer prize winning Angusina Maclean is keeping her diary free. Looking forward to hearing from you, Chrissie Ann's Diary

Never mind 'Oh its' Yerself' magazine, we at Och would like to pitch as well. Let's catch the Gazette and the Free Press with their trousers down and have a deal done before Christmas.

Is it true that Cher has offered to record a jingle for the Festival ads on the 91热爆 Radio Eoropie, using the soundtrack of "the Sheep Sheep Song"? Hope that Sunny from Arran can join her.

I would be happy to give Cher a few pointers, especially how to get a good wobble going in the voice for the high bits. The poor lassie obviously needs the money. The last time I saw her on the box she was jiggin' about trying to keep warm in a couple of bits of string! She didn't even have legs on her drawers! She'll catch a chill, piles or the lurgy, flipperty jibbiting around half naked at the fank, so I've started crotcheting a nice button up the back one piece out of Uncle Hamishs' ear & nose trimmings.
Sunny from Arran
What a homemaker you are Sunny and how generous of your Uncle Hamish. A wee tip -try to use winter nose hair - it's thicker than summer. Just a suggestion but I'm sure advice like that is like teaching Granny to suck eggs.

We will offer a whole tub of crowdie for exclusive pictures of the 1st nuptuals! We a Cheery Bye Magazine pride ourselves in covering only the most celebrity packed events and with such luminaries as Annie Beag, Sunny and Donald O'Donald we have to be there! However can you please ask those bottom feeding, attention seeking D listers like the Zelwegger woman etc. to keep out of the way?
Cheery Bye Magazine from Milan, New York, London & The Village Shop
I'm afraid that we're not quite as naive as you seem to think Cheery. Can we be clear that Sunny, Donald and all Calumannabel's Fank associates cannot be bought for a mere tub of crowdie? My starting point would have to include a Lofty Peak recipe book and a Sun-Ray Tips tea gift pack. I'm sure that the others would also wish to negotiate more attractive personal terms. Representatives of "Showery" magazine have also approached us with an offer -which we are considering. ("Showery" took its name from an English visitor's misinterpretation of a Gaelic speaker's comment on the weather, which was repeated - accurately - whenever they met. The sassenach thought it was a traditional Hebridean greeting and used it cheerily whenever he met someone in the islands in future years. "Showery Agnes", he would say on blissful days as the sun beat down on the Butt.)
