Logos & Losers
In The News
Glasgow City Council have paid £95,000 for a logo for the Commonwealth Games made up of the primary colours (plus green), the letter G and a few circles, hardly value is it. I’m a big fan of the Olympics and these other large sporting events and don’t usually begrudge the funding at all. I do like a bit of value for money though and this overly simplistic rip off logo (apparently the logo is very similar to the logo of some arts council, shown on left of pic). I’d rather have seen the ‘project’ farmed out to the schools and have the kids come up with something, and give them the ninety-five grand.

To the prat that overtook me at high speed, next to a central reservation, metres before a red light which you ploughed through whilst displaying ‘L’ plates thanks for nearly killing me you loser. I hope you got to wherever you were going in such a rush, I can’t imagine you’ll be driving for too much longer.

I've been blogging for four years and write about anything and everything that takes my fancy.

Totally agree with you on the logos. They spent I don’t know how much on the logo for the London Olympics and let’s face it, it’s rubbish.
I find myself wishing a horrible fate on all dangerous drivers these days, particularly the biker who went over the zebra crossing WHILE WE WERE ON IT the other day. I don’t even feel guilty.
Bloody hell that’s scary, Erica. And L plates too? God help us all…
Things like that annoy me! (the logo) (actually the loser too) Its like the £42mil spent here on deciding not to extend the congestion charge!
I don’t like the London 2012 either and apparently they’ve spent an arm and a leg for it. What are they thinking? Sorry about your experience in the car. I was almost run over earlier on the pavement when another L plate driver overtook a bike! Speechless. Ciao. A.
That logo is rubbish. That driver is an idiot. Short and to the point today!
