veins 17 August 2010
I remembered an advert today that i saw on the side of an Edinburgh taxi last week which I found mildly perturbing. It was for a service involving thread vein removal. I know this is a necessary procedure for many but I am unsure as to the efficacy of advertising a clinic for such things on the side of a moving vehicle. Perhaps I didn’t fully appreciate it as I am not yet the target for such operations and when my time comes (and decrepitude is indeed progressing so it is simply a matter of time) perhaps I will feel differently. I also wonder at the kind of person who might jot down such a number for such an establishment from the side of a cab and think it would be ideal for them…it’s the most unusual advert I have seen on a public transport vehicle, I’ll give it that…
