The joys of holidaying in Cyprus at this time of year - Christmas isn't rammed down our throats as soon as the Halloween razzamatazz is over!

That ad is awful, it's enough to give children nightmares, and nothing to do with Christmas at all.

It really was shit, wasn't it. What's more, it sounded like the guy from Go Compare was moonlighting.

It was also a bit of a rip off of Little Shop Of Horrors.

Here's a clip from that film which is definitely worth watching.



Admitedly it didn't feature the man-eating plant, but it is definitely worth watching!

Couldn’t agree more. Can’t wait to fly out on 20th December. I’ve got to suffer the same old rubbish songs in every shop until then. Still, lovely hotel, great food, good company, no telly for 2 weeks…I love Christmas and New Year in Cyprus!
