It’s well known in Dubai that helpers try to iron all sorts of things, from baby clothes to boxer shorts. Today, I was in our local supermarket and spotted this advert on the noticeboard. I just love the way it reads, giving the impression that the houseboy will iron your pet for you! Only in Dubai …
As an American friend just pointed out to me, US readers may also enjoy the way it suggests you’re contacting the Mob if you call.
Ironed pets – ouch. However, based on what our Philippine housekeeper irons (among other things, MrL’s boxer shorts) it’s not really *that* far out of the realm of possibility….
Rather funny ad. Nothing like learning English.
Funny sign spotting is a great hobby to have here! Thank you for dropping by and commenting 🙂
