Thought y'all might be amused by this posting I saw in our uk.misc
newsgroup:

The ad that's showing in the UK at the moment (only the one variation,
AFAIK) has lots of lemons in the background, "if your mouth can't say
something nice..." captions and a soundtrack with indecipherable lyrics
backed with lots of high la-la-la's. Doesn't actually sound *unmistakably*
like Kate to me. If it is, one must presume that she's taken up singing
in Bulgarian or something....8-)
