I wonder if anyone else is as disgusted as I am by a TV advert currently being aired for an insurance website. The advert is the typical save time by going online and it’s fun to bus insurance yada yada yada. However this advert is even more pathetic than your usual advert as the spokesperson for this website is none other than Iggy Pop. I mean how do you go from a shirtless, gravel voiced rocker, iconic of a by gone era to being a flabby, loud, shirtless insurance salesman. It is just very sad what the world is becoming when even the rebels try to sell you insurance.

Because eventually, as soon as these aging Baby Boomers turn 60 they will be offered a truckload of cash to be a spokesperson, and very few of them will say no.

Oh no...I've seen everything now...

By the way, at some point in their lives, these aging rockers will start to seriously look into health and life insurance policies...LOL!

I have to say that I am very impressed by my uncle sometimes. He decided he wanted to get into writing and within a few months of starting he has over 250 pages of a novel written.



His dedication to his writing has put me to shame and has brought to the front my own recent lack of lustre in this field.



I have therefore decided to not only start back writing my main story but now to transcribe all my notes and short stories onto the computer and get working on them again, at least a page a day from now on.





I have also been getting pretty good feedback from my How to short story, although all of that has been from family and mams work associates so I don't think most of it can be taken to heart. But still, positive feedback is welcome.
