Let's get personal

There was a time when there was a "personal ads" section in most broadsheets and tabloids.

In this section, you could read about people who are looking for other people. They can be looking for a date, a person to converse with, a long-term relationship, "the one", or simply, "a mate." It used to be very popular, covering about a page or 2 of the paper.

But when the internet came, that all disappeared.

So, it was such a novelty to see an honest-to-goodness personal ad last Sunday.

A personal ad written for a dog, though.


I hope Marcel finds the dog of his dreams.
