    Oh noes! Bad news for kids & vagrants everywhere

    http://www.marketingmagazine.co.uk/N...cohol-content/

    LONDON - White Lightning, the controversial strong white cider brand, is relaunching with a lower alcohol content to encourage responsible drinking. ????

    The brand, which is owned by Scottish & Newcastle (S&N), is among a group of brands in the white-cider category often associated with problem drinking among groups such as homeless people and under-age drinkers.

    Its present strength of 7.5% ABV will be cut to 5.5% from May. A change in its can design will reflect the reduction.

    And to reflect the alcohol reduction, the price is now under two pence per gallon.

    In Hull, chavs have evolved the ability to pronounce "White Lightening" using a single syllable.
    PHP Code:
    $s = new signature();
    $s->sarcasm()->intellect()->font('Courier New')->display();
