And they say advertising doesn't work....
I'm not saying that ads can't be annoying and intrusive, judging by some of the comments already made on TonbridgeBlog (and to my face) some of you don't like it.

Yes, I've been looking for a supplier of environmentally friendly cotton bags for my shop on and off for the last two years or more. Then up pops an advertisement for Stuart Morris, supplier of tea towels for schools, T Shirts, mugs and, you've guessed it, cotton bags. I went to their web site, picked up the phone and enquired about their bags and very helpful they were too. I'm about to order at least a hundred of their shoulder bags, with a view to ordering many more in the future. So you see advertising can and does have its uses!...
