The ASA are a group in England that monitor advert's to make sure the don't
tell lies or bend the truth too much.....!!!!
Seems a little extreme to me in this case, but then if I remember right
they were always like that when I lived over there.
Elevenses, is the point between breakfast and lunch where your stomach
starts to growl for lunch but it's too early and too it's late for
breakfast. About the time in the morning for a donut.

What is the ASA? What is "reading the ad over his elevenses"??
