That Dasseau Systeme bird in the Kakhi, why does she want to build a town in the desert? It's a foolish thing to want to do and a foolish advert. I know not what they produce but by jingo it's an annoying advert.

    I can't decide whether to spend my discretionary income on a state of the art compass to steer my iceberg with or a secret holiday in lower silesia

    I wish I had the money for a holiday in Silesia - sending the kids to the Aspire Academy in Qatar has pretty much cleaned me out.

    it's a hard life if you don't weaken.

    I've seen the Lower Silesia advert about 500 times this month and I still don't know what country it's in. Now that's mysterious.

    I only know the answer because we have an office in Wroclaw

    I could have been a racing driver, or even a footballer but cycling chose me. :lol:

    Apart from being very annoying, what the hell does it mean? What exactly is a "pure tyre" and don't they really mean Japanese quality rather than Japan quality? Maybe they should get a native English speaker to script their adds.

    But the big question is "how many Poles will it take to make you visit Poland"? Offer me the blonde at the end and I'll be there every weekend!!

    Nothing would ruin the ads on eurosport quicker than a native english speaker.

    "Not to be talked about, to be seen. So see you."

    The boy who does the voiceover sounds properly threatening when he says "so see you". After the first time I saw it I was halfway through buying my flights before I realised it wasn't an order and I retained the right not to travel to Poland on holiday.
