Elegance and Efficiency

Elegance and Efficiency

Combining these virtues is lovely PATRICIA GARLAND, secretary in the City of London.

Pat has just become interested in modelling and wants eventually to do TV commercials. We can think of no one more elegantly equipped for the job of convincing us we're not using the right shampoo to stop our hair falling out. Or enticing us to wash in a new kind of detergent.

Frankly, we aren't too bothered about never being alone with a certain brand, but what chance is there of being alone with Pat to persuade her we know just which box of chocolates she likes best? Isn't she a honey?

Watch out for TV advertisers being crafty enough to size up Pat as a hundred per cent prospect for selling you on every line that passes over your screens. How could you resist her without keeping your eyes shut-and with Pat in view how could you keep your eyes shut?
