Thanks to the boys at Amba Design, a small design company based in Hertford (UK!), I have been able to work from their office the past few days (in return for me making the tea) as my usual web connection totally died. Talking to them, and seeing them create some amazing stuff (I mean look at this virtual high street! and the guy behind Iffyton TV reminds me a bit of DaddyP’s infamous video interview with Paul O’Flaherty) I asked them to come up with this weeks Friday Five questions.
What is it?
Simply answer the five questions below, either copy and answer on your blog linking back to here (leave the link in the comments) or just answer in the comments – up to you, no pressure and no link love required from us 
Usual disclaimer – all questions are random rubbish by Andy Block at Amba Designs.
- What is your favourite website or blog design?
- What is the best Cadbury advert in your opinion Gorilla playing drums or the two kids blinking?
- Name a TV advert (commercial) that you love but have no idea who is behind it?
- What is a cooler brand Budweiser or Guinness?
- Do you think a well designed website/blog is a luxury or necessity given today’s economic climate?
Answers on a postcard below folks 
1. Fave site design is Twitter, just because of simplicity to use. I love this blog too.
2. Gorilla, I hate the blinking kids
3. Cant really think of any, maybe I need to watch more tv
4. Guinness
5. Necessity given that people should be online in a professional way, cheap design is a put off
1. Without wishing to be biased of course but I do like Penfold’s designs
2. The kids [not blinking but doing the eyebrow boogy] especially when the balloon enters the equation …….
3. The bloke sliding down the waterpark tube – although I think I’ve just remembered it’s Barclaycard
4. GUINNESS!!!
5. Absolutely vital for websites. A good blog stands out on most platforms. In fact a lot of bloggers over design and complicate their blogs.
Thank chaps at Amba designs for putting up with Kevin – it can’t be easy …….
[I'd forgotten that video - I wonder if Paul ever recovered - tee hee]
BTW – IFFYTON HIGH STREET is fantastic! very impressed – it makes shopping fun which quite frankly is quite a challenge for me ……
1.What an impossible question!
2.The kids!I looooooooooove Cadbury Fingers!!!!!!!!!Yumeeeeee!!!

Now,I do not even enjoy cars.But for me this is one of the most amazing comercials ever done.It’s so perfect,it’s so simple yet it comunicates so much!It’s just great…it makes me want to have that car and go travel the world!
4.Guiness
5.Well designed blog/website is a must if one wants to comunicate well with our readers/clients/bloggers…

1. What is your favourite website or blog design?
I am loving http://www.thegenealogist.co.uk/
2. What is the best Cadbury advert in your opinion Gorilla playing drums or the two kids blinking?
The Gorilla by far
3. Name a TV advert (commercial) that you love but have no idea who is behind it?
Struggling here as I have no idea about TV advertising .. there was one about Hovis I did love
4. What is a cooler and Budweiser or Guinness?
Guinness
5. Do you think a well designed website/blog is a luxury or necessity given today’s economic climate?
Absolutely a necessity no question !
1. Holding out for Web3.x update. I’d say simple is less though. Stream without fanciness!
2. (The Gorrila can be found at THIS link.) Kids are the best, but Gorilla would have gotten it if it went more realistic. Kids rule!
3. Victoria’s Secret ads, since I can’t remember their names. Really.
4. Bud! Remember the three Bud Bikini Girls on the blanket? Huh? DO YA? lol
5. It’s blog suicide if you don’t. It’s tomorrow’s peer pressure status quo scale. It’s “Keepin’ up with the Jones’ widgetitus”, or hoping your friend’s doesn’t blog with the same one.
…I really do not like the gorilla…What were they thinking?I mean, I am a regular chocolate eater.Now,play me that gorilla one more time and I’ll quit chocolate eating!(It would be good as Spring is coming and then Summer and then bikini time!!…wait a minute, I’ll guess Gorilla is good!!!Play me that Gorilla!!Pleaseeee!
Belinha,
Send me pictures of you in a bikini suit and I’ll dress up in a gorilla costume for you. Send me round trip tickets, and I’ll…oh…this is an open comment, isn’t it? My bad.
Ahahahah!!!We must wait till Summer,eheheheh!!!!!!!It will be hard for you,all that Summer (Florida?!!!) hot and a gorilla costume,eheheh!!
We’re losing things in the translation.
You, me, there, sunlamps. Do they have a mini gorilla costume? tee hee
