coketime

You can see this coca cola advert from the Waltham overbridge. I’m not sure what the two guys were doing on the ladders… any ideas?

I vividly remember a classmate of mine from University telling me that his flatmate ‘thought that life was a coke commercial’. He really didn’t need to say much more after that, it kind of neatly encapsulated the nature of her personality (well for me it did anyway)! But then I did make a lot of sweeping generalisations when i was younger. Now that I’m much ‘maturer’ and have passed Pyschology 101 and 102 as an adult student none the less!  I would have a lot more to say on the subject. For now though, for the sake of brevity, and because I turned 40 this week (eek!) I’ll just say that living life like a coke advert would be very exhausting!

    They could be altering the advert. The Coke summer ads always go live on December 1st (TV, radio, etc.). If you watch the billboard I’m sure it will subtly change in coming weeks.
