Truth in advertising at it's best... the description says it's silver plated in one place and nickel plated in another. Gotta love Laabs Music!

Notice that the ad doesn't specify what the horn is compensating for... most trumpet players just buy a Corvette!
Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still grow, but only to be troubled and insecure?

Yes, and if Br-exit happens (which it probably won't - for the same reasons the Scotland independence referendum failed last year), then he would have to change the one marketing line from "European Inspired" back to "British Inspired."
