On the big billboards where Pärnu road and Pirita Street cross, an angry somebody seems to be getting even with his woman.

At both places, huge letters loudly proclaim: «Money hungry witch! Find yourself a new home! T.»

Private persons using ad spaces to express their feelings is nothing new in Tallinn. However, it has usually come down to saying «I love you» or asking for forgiveness.

For the time being, it remains unclear whether we have to do with a marriage problem or an ad campaign. According to the tabloid Õhtuleht (Evening Paper), the «money hungry witch» is identified as the lady at istockphoto.com, from where the photo can be purchased. The picture precisely matches the ads. Portals like this are used by advertisement agencies and others when seeking a neutral photo to avoid using a definite person.
