This is what was awaiting me on the doormat when I checked the post this morning. Not the real thing, of course, but quite a disturbing almost life size image on a cut-out cardboard advertising blurb.

Now what business would employ such a mad advertising agency to create this as a "sales aid"?
A: A funeral parlour?
B: A religous cult?
C: A "gothic" supplies store?
D: Health insurance?
E: Kidnappers demanding a ransom?
None of the above. It was produced by South Eastern Railways to promote a 2 for 1 ticket offer on fun days out to London!
Really!
