So it's almost Christmas and I've decided to add one more item to my "ridiculous things that I don't need, but really want" list - a giant waterslide. This viral ad from Barclaycard is the manifestation of many a child's dream, just watching the ad made me want to head for the world's largest water park.

The advert also works as a really good metaphor for being able to 'glide' through life's transactions if you have a Barclaycard.



Thing is that if I ever did, by some miracle, actually get a  a giant waterslide, it would be something like the one in this Specsavers spoof...
