Advertisements
Ads have come into an Englishman's life to such a degree that he no longer protests. He watches them on TV, hears them on the radio, reads them in newspapers and sees them in the streets - on trams and buses, on billboards and posters. Here is an example. You are watching TV. It may be a film, a football match or a news-report and suddenly on your TV screen appears a cartoon strip with Mickey Mouse singing a song about what a wonderful drink Cocoa Choc is, or a famous actor advises you to clean your teeth with Peppermint Toothpaste. All this information gets into your head and when you go shopping and see one of the advertised things you recognize it as an old friend and get excited and buy it without a second thought.
But one must have in mind that advertisements are the main form of competition and they are worth a lot of money. A company must be very rich to advertise daily.

Every day had been the same for Vic. He would catch the bus, get off at the corner and go up the hill. He would cross the road, buy some fish and chips and eat them out of the paper. They would last him until he got to the gate. He really liked fish and chips and for him there was no better way of eating them than in the open air. That day everything was different. The bus was late and the shop was closed. When he got to the pictures, the place where they had arranged to meet, Ingrid wasn't there.. They didn't like watching TV but were fond of going to the cinema. The pictures are the same, of course, and they can show color on TV, but not cinemascope. Angry and upset, he went home wondering if she would come to the same place the next day. When he went in, the whole family were sitting in the living room with the table-lamp on watching TV. He didn't want any supper and asked his mother not to bother. He went to the kitchen, made some cocoa, brought it back into the living room and sat down on the sofa. Vic wanted to light a cigarette but found out he didn't have any, so he had to go out to the shop.
It was then that behind the front door he noticed a letter that had been pushed in. It had neither a stamp nor address on it, just his name. He was excited. He opened the letter and read it. It said that Ingrid was to see her cousin off on Friday night and wasn't able to go to the cinema with him. Vic got back home, said good night to the family and went upstairs.
