And what we know in Britain as the Vauxhall Nova was called the Opel Corsa in the rest of Europe. They finally changed the name in Britain to coincide with the bubble shaped version launched in 1993. I seem to recall they couldn't call it Nova in Europe because in Spanish and Italian it translated a...

I think your new Tesco logo is brilliant, jay. Miles better than what they've got now. It reminds me of a logo you'd find on a supermarket in France. Out of interest I wonder what it would cost Tesco to change the signage on every store, the livery on every delivery lorry, and the packaging on every...

I couldn't agree more, cat. It's absolutely outrageous how they describe these products. They've only been required by law to put ingredients on toiletries for a few years, and I find it really amusing to read through the list of industrial effluents which get no mention on the front of the pack or ...

Hymagumba was spot on - Morrisons is ego driven. Sir Ken personally makes all the big decisions, and many of the smaller ones too. He doesn't believe in consultants or branding agencies. Everything is done in-house. It's a business practice I can partly understand, when you look at stories like the ...

Now this is what I don't understand with fuel prices. With every other consumer product, there is a lot of competition amongst the biggest providers to offer their product cheaper than anywhere else, so that more people buy it, so that the store can then buy in greater bulk for cheaper prices, thus...

Re: 24hr drinking - good or bad
Is it in our culture to excess, I wonder. If it is, surely extending licensing hours will make little or no difference. I think the argument in favour of 24 hour pubs is that our culture of excess binge drinking has come about entirely because of our restricted serving times. Young people look upon...

Are the Americans stupid Most of them are, evidently. What a sad day for lovers of freedom, justice and peace. Truly terrible news. All we can do is redouble our efforts to boycott the likes of Esso and Pepsi (who own Walkers crisps, by the way) as it was their millions of dollars towards Bush's ca...
