Scottish Advent Calendar
Date Posted: 23.11hrs on Tue 15 Dec 09
Anybody else received a picture of a "Scottish Advent Calendar" by email or etc within the past few days?

It has made its way back to me several times within the past 2 days now, which is strangely ironic, considering it's sitting in my kitchen!

I am now kicking myself that I didn't put a "highland-instinct" label on it! The photo has gone absolutely everywhere...

Wonder if there's been an upswing in sales of 24packs of Tennents?

I received that picture in my email about a week ago from about 6 different contacts!
They all thought that I would appreciate it! However I was not so responsible as to have one a day I am afraid I made a pig of myself with mine and scoffed it all in one evening, Several days later I am still suffering the consequences and seriously thinking about signing the pledge!!!!

At least for me it is a one annual event binge drinking so most likely by this time next year I will of forgotten the pains of the festive piss up!

Jamie

You should put together a viral video (with some groovy music & other bits and pieces)....of your calendar and stick it up on YouTube?

And see what happens?

It turned up on digg.com... that pretty much guarantees what ever it is to go viral.

of course Jamie, Tennents could have responded to your excellent idea by enabling the viral spread of the photo themselves by sending it to a few well known sites.

Ha - Seen that a couple of time this week Jamie.
Beware the power of the web... other wise known as the 'claire swires' effect.

Way back in the dark ages of this t'internet thing (circa 2002) myself and flatmate started a simple chain / fwd email. Which made its way several times across the globe, and even got ripped off by some lazy ass journo at the Scotsman.

I think RATM may also be about to demonstrate 'power of the web' with their xmas 1 winking smiley

Enjoy the warm T - does the calander fit in the fridge ?
Though I guess you could just leave it outside right now grinning smiley

If the GFS is to believed you'd need something a damn site stronger than Tennent's to not freeze outside! grinning smiley
