Most people in the advertising world are rather opinionated and I suppose that I'm no different.

In fact most people I know outside the business are fairly opinionated, whether it be about politics, the European Union (hmm, quite!) or even a game of football, but perhaps some people are simply more vocal than others.

Here are seven subjects, all concerned with the advertising business, that I've unashamedly been more than a little irritated about over the years.

There are certainly a few more and I've no doubt that if you're in this business, or even if you are an advertiser, you have a few of your own.

There's also one that was just a bit of harmless, impish fun.

Or was it?
