before and after

i realised today that i walk past a number of ‘before and after’ adverts so i undertook to photo them for you.
here’s the first. it’s advertising “hi-lites” but neither the before or after pictures look very convincing. this poor chap looks as disappointed after as he did before.

then there’s this chap. he looks a bit happier at the end, but the wording is a bit disturbing ‘stays on better?’

but my all time favourite has to be this one which i thought was a missing person advert. then i read ‘trial’ and thought it must be one of those social-injustice posters. but instead it’s some sort of advert for something which takes 6 months.
this woman certainly looks a lot sadder after only 6 months which is a shame.

found train pass

i found this train pass on the way to work yesterday morning. it’s still got a month to run on it and costed 235pounds and thirty pence. i phoned his local train station and they took my phone numbers so if he gets in contact i can hand it over to him in person.
i’ll let you know what happens and if i do meet him i’ll be sure to capture the moment on camera and post to davescollections
