Ye Olde Christmas All Wrapped Up


It's full steam ahead for this Network Rail ad in Monday's London Metro newspaper. A big bag full of shop logos with a snow flake motif on the front. It's not a 'cracker' (unless you discount the fact that a 'T-R-A-I-N Station has created a press ad) by any stretch until...

You read the copy underneath.

Hats off to the copywriter; I've not seen the words 'Yuletide Treats' for about 180 years. Bring back more of this vernacular. The only thing missing is a picture of Dickensian London at Christmas we're not far off a scene from the lid of a Quality Street tin.

One thing tiny tiny little question, what exactly is Euston Station giving us again?
