Outside the Natural History Museum in Berlin is an advertising display, one of those that displays a number of different pictures in sequence. This cycles through a number of posters for a single campaign. Each poster shows a person wearing a cycling helmet. Variations of the same caption is on each poster, and the caption is in English. "Looks like shit but it can save my life".

It amuses me that not only is it in English but such a caption could probably not appear on a poster in the UK.

I've mentioned before that I seem to get a number of letters from insurance companies all at the same time of year telling me it's time to renew my car insurance, despite the fact that I've never owned a car.  I've just received two in successive days.

The one from Direct Line actually started, " These days being without your car isn't an option".  I'm wondering if I can get them under the truth in advertising laws.
