13th August 2001

Hi all,
A little look at recent events and daily life, through the perspective of the people who brought you the Mastercard adverts...

Weekly bus ticket into Glasgow... ?11.50
6" Club Sub from Subway... ?2.49
Emergency tie in absense of one you meant to wear... ?3.99
Having a boss who doesn't sing short bursts of "I'll be working my way back to you, BABE"... priceless

Return flight tickets between Glasgow and Stansted... ?61
Hire of a Ford Mondeo for a weekend... ?too much
Drinks to rehydrate yourself after go-karting... ?23.69
Memories of the best weekend of your life... priceless

Round of pitch 'n' putt at Rottingdean... ?3
Replacement club... ?10
Replacement ball... ?1
Life of a passing motorcyclist... priceless

There are some things in life money can't buy. For everything else there's Mastercard... well, apart from bus tickets, subs, drinks in most pubs and small pitch 'n' putt courses, where you can pay by cash or go without, but that's another story.

Have a good week!
Tony
