Make it click


 Many years ago there was a slogan via McDonald's tv commercals about seatbelt safety in cars called "Make it click". 



These days it's not on so much anymore but still just as relevant. The above mural was painted by local artist Mark Haldana aka RAJA. Sorry it's a bit blurred as it was taken when I was driving past.

Linking up with Mural Monday.

The slogan here was 'clunk click every trip' and was promoted by Jimmy Saville!

I think I remember that commercial. Today in the states, it is "Click it or ticket." Still, a very clever mural, Amy.

McDonald's really knows how to get attention! There aren't too many publicity campaigns that would be repeated by a person painting a wall, who isn't paid to do it.

Grace Brothers

  We have 2 new chickens, both black ladies. If any of you are familiar with British comedy tv shows you will recognize the names we have given them. This one is named Miss Brahms. And this one is named Mrs Slocombe. At the moment we have them in a temporary shelter next to the Special Patrol Group that we've had for the last 9 months just so they can get to know each other before we intigrate the black ones in with the brown ones. These ones give us a white coloured egg whereas the brown shavers give us brown coloured eggs. Linking up with  Tuesday Treasures ,  Happy Tuesdays  and   Wordless Wednesday .

Arched ceilings dominate the former congregational high stud space beyond the foyer and numerous picturesque windows provide a light, airy feel and an ambience many office buildings lack. The building housed congregational and Sunday school services for 70 years until it was sold and converted into office space in 2003. A significant refurbishment was also carried out with care taken to ensure that the building's distinctive character remained intact. Special architectural ...
