Back in the 1960's, London tube trains carried an advert that became well known for missing out all the vowels. It was an advert for a publication:

'DLTNS WKLY'

Very, very successful, as you had to give it some thought, so it had more of an impact.

After over half a century, it is the only tube ad that sticks in my mind! Even the sexy lingerie adverts, which I recall cloaked the tube in profusion, I cannot actually recall any of the brand names.

Quote "The inspirale for the developmend of Unwinese did come from many many sourcey. The firlst being the expressimode of his motherly that she had "falolloped' in front of a tram and grazed her 'kneeclappers", after young Stan made quibblode and questy that fallollop be nockers a proper verby of the fundermold of the Basic Engly Twentyfido, she did answerforth that it must be one, otherwide she could not be say'd of it. He beed also inspirode by the workings of Lewis Carroll and nunsends poet Edward Lear."
