Newspaper suffers shortage of proof readers

Hello S#!tty

I'm not a great fan of the mouthless one but am rather taken by this hotplate, coffee maker, warming oven and death trap all rolled into one very, very pink package.



I need an oven but I'll pass on this one. Featured on the home of Pink Hellishness Hello Kitty Hell , I'm honoured.

Toothpaste finds

There are a lot of products here that wouldn't see the light of day in other countries including Dr. White Silver toothpaste, also available is Dr. White Gold. It's clearly a highly advanced formula but one which I'm not sure there is much of a niche market.



Great, who wouldn't want a little oral disease functionality with their toothpaste?

A free gift came with it.



Oral me?

Bond is back...

and is wants English teacher.

Extremely crafty one preferred.

Label Babel Clarty Lavvy

You probably have to speak Scottish English to understand this one.



Clarte, very refreshing.



The all too common local pronounciation of this product doesn nothing to enhance its brand image. Nothing like some Lavvy water to help the rehydration process.

Label Babel 3

A couple of misprints, typos or otherwise idiosyncratic uses of English picked up around HCMC recently.

Veggy's is an expensive imported food shop which we don't use very often but it is nice to be a bit extravagant from time to time.



I saw this in the Toilet of Stella Cafe in town, I had to use the flash to capture it. Odd looks ensued when I left the loo but I think it was worth it.

We moved to a new house recently and our landlord brought us this as an attractive addition to
our living space:

It's going to take quite some time to find the perfect position for it.

Arse

One of my favourite products, every home needs some ARS.

First Heat Your ARS


Because no ARS is complete without liquid

Label Babel

I went to "Shoe Street" and snagged myself a pair of Clark's sandals and some pretty flip flops orignially destined for New Look. Choice of shoes isn't something I've had recently so I bought all that fitted including a pair of gold shoes which I suspect may never see the light of day. Not all the goods are genuine of course, you have to be careful otherwise you're going to end up looking pretty silly.



"Watch the Nem Levi's Commercial, Cong Away Sin". Indeed.

Mistranslations always appeal to me and in the marvelously named "Fashion Monkey" Stephen got a nice t-shirt with an even nicer label



Of course I was too big for all the female clothes, but what do I care, I got shoes!
