Paphos Life

In a sudden burst of inspiration, I just thought up a nice slogan for a popular supermaket chain in Paphos...

Every Lidl helps

Sorry, Tesco, for a hint of plagiarism, but don't bother taking me or Lidl to court, as you're guaranteed to lose and pay us enormous costs, LOL!

Cheers- AL

Keep taking the pills AL ............. even the Lidl ones!


Shane

Catchy though, innit? Specially when pronounced phonetically...

Finally going to see if I can find a pack of those 14 x German Bratwurst bangers tomorrow in Lidl here...

Cheers- AL

Those sossies are now a firm family favourite. Especially as they are gluten free. And follow Shane's advice Al, noting that he said "pills", not "pils".

Lidl Northern Ireland has been using EVERY LIDL HELPS slogan in their advertisements for quite a long time!!

Every time I hear Slogans and Bangers mentioned together

Made the tears roll down my legs with LOL!

In the same vein.................not a supermarket but a (rather rough) bar........the "Commerce Inn..............or any way you like".
Maybe you have to be Aberdonian to understand. (Memory Man, you'll remember this!!)

As a true born and bred Lutonian, TLR, (the inhabitants of which are historically renowned for being at least as twice as TIGHT as our northern 'Sweaty Sock' neighbours), I'm afraid I don't grasp your play on words there...

Please elaborate, so I can partake of and share the humour? Thanks- AL

Was it not Peep Peeps bar TLR?

No it was the Commerce Inn, at the junction of Commerce St.
The splendidly rude barman (of UTube fame) in Peep Peeps may well have adopted the catchphrase but the pun rather lost its meaning.
It may be folk legend but I am sure I recall hearing that the very strait laced (Wee Free) Assistant Chief Constable at the time was driven past the Commerce Inn and objected to the addition to the sign.
Even if apocryphal, still makes me laugh.

In the Doric, which we speak in NE Scotland, erse is how we pronounce a delicate part of the anatomy.
Come erse in.........or ony way ye like..............
Best wishes from a Jockess to a Sassenach.

It took a while T. but I get it now.

The Doric is a great language especially with Scotland the What!

My all time fav is the Call Centre.................

Oh goodness me yes.
They are all just so spot on.
Buff Hardie was a dear friend of mine but my fave has to be the Ballater Toy Shop and the futtret.
They were all utter stars, what an ear they all had.
But let's not forget Buff's Councillor Swick!!! Pure joy.
Or should I say, affa fine!!

I have no idea what you two are blathering on about.

Listen to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vDNN6NigGNM and you may understand better

I'm kind of getting it now, Dominic... Come Erse In (meaning you can speak the local lingo in their bar, I think?)

Always believed that Erse was Irish lingo. But maybe they both speak Gaelic actually, so can talk to one another? AL

Cheers- AL

You could always get a t-shirt Al...........
