    Attention all you Branston lovers.

    In case you weren't aware, the factory has burnt down! That means it's going to run out... SOON!

    So anyone with a Pickle Addiction, you'd better stock up quick for Christmas. Shops are emptying fast. SEE HERE

    The best way to overcome the shortage is for everybody to go to the shops NOW and hoarde as much as they can.
    PHP Code:
    $s = new signature();
    $s->sarcasm()->intellect()->font('Courier New')->display();
