"A little good news"

Yes, we've been awfully quiet recently. 
And no, we haven't been bailed out by the Fed /taken over by an Icelandic bank.

We just thought, in these gloomy times, we'd wait till we had a stack of good news.

So here goes...


 
10 million bottles

Europe with Firefly bottles covering the land-massIn a month of multi-billion dollar bank rescues, 10 million sounds a bit small-fry.
Which I suppose it is.
But to look on the bright side:
  • It's the population of Portugal.
  • It's the land area of Europe (in square km)
  • And we just sold our 10 millionth Firefly.
So, it's something. 
Thank you for helping us get there.


 
Firefly Waters - they're back.

New Firefly waters on ice

We had a bit of a 'mare with the first lot of
waters. But we haven't given up. 
They're back - in a new um, "robust" bottle.
And the good news is:
1) Green tea & Mint is now certified Organic
Our first organic drink. 
2) We have a new flavour - White tea,
Pomegranate and Elderflower

And it's fabulous.

They'll be back on Waitrose shelves next
week.  In the meantime, we have
50 cases to give away to the first 50
people who answer these (rather easy) questions.  Click here...

 
25 days to go...

McCain & Obama reaching for Firefly

With 25 days to go, all eyes are on - OK, that tussle for leadership of the free world, but as well as that  -  we're launching a new Firefly! 

A bit like Sarah Palin, we're not giving press conferences just yet.  But rest assured, it's going to be tasty, effective and not at all lacking in substance. 

Oh, and we've just made a "Facebook" page [yup...] - and if you look carefully, you might just spot our new drink.
So go on, become a fan, doggone it!

 
And the gossip...

The Firefly team

Let's see...
Two new faces.  Jaime & Alice
[Like, "hiring" - people still do that?]

Duncan got married.

The press have been a bit obsessed
with us recently - here's a selection.

Oh, and we saw Penelope Cruz in
Jakobs on Monday.  With Javier
Bardem.  Now you're talking...




There, enough of this good news lark.

Hope you're surviving,
Harry & Marcus
Harry, Marcus, Caroline, Emma, Duncan, Julia, Richard, Jaime & Alice.


P.S.  Look out for Firefly at Frieze Art Fair and Zoo Art Fair next week.
