Wexting, I know I do, do you?
Life changes every day so do our habits, the smart phone has exploded in to our lives and has changed them for ever,
Wexting is now so big that some states in the US fine people, in London they even find it nessasery to pad out posts along the roads,
With new phones arriving all the time, and even our kids have full accesses, are we safe to be let out.

Boxing day 1985 at 5,01 pm denim history was remade
Out of a Bath and into a laundrette, the two adverts that re-launched the Levi's denim brand, the 501 was back.
After the Strauss family has sold it's business years passed as they watch to see it suffer and lose the identity Levi had had build some 100 years earlier. Realising they needed to step in they managed to find finance to buy back the brand, it was an expensive move but one that would make history. The relaunch with the support of what will become a chain of record breaking Adverts, meant the family would not only make the 501 and Levi's jeans one of the biggest brands of the 80's but would also help them achieve one of the fastest loan pay backs in business history.
Did you see the two adverts that Boxing Day, in the last add break of Superman! yes that classic Christopher Reeve film, two back to back Levi add's were aired.
First the bath then the more famous Nick Kaman add laundrette, the rest is history but can you name the add's that followed?
