These are killers, Audiman! There are traces of your previous small ads here but that makes them all the more funny. Have you ever thought of proposing these to a radio programme?

What is this!
Madness, utter madness! Made me laugh. Made me read it again, and then laugh some more!
It's the kind of nonsense you knock out on an e-mail to a mate... if you're a comedy genius.
Hassle somebody like th Guardian Weekend section because this stuff pisses on their so-called humour.
I liked it by the way.

Very very funny, Audi.
I love the ‘glittering’ and the dog named George…
I’m sure you could persuade a paper or a magazine to run a series of these.

This brilliant Audiman, really laughed loads. Do some reserch on Humour mags and submit but make sure you copyright first. Alternatively, I think a self published \Zine/Gazette could be your entree.
Great stuff
