"Boing boing merrily on high"

	Hi H,
Yes, we're still here!  ITV may be giving up soaps, the banks may be giving up, um, interest, but Firefly haven't given up making drinks and sending sporadic self-indulgent newsletters. And the sun is out.  What more could we ask?

Stay in and drink

At times like this, we should all be heading out to our nearest independent café and buying up their entire stock of cakes and lattés, so they keep going and don't get replaced by Poundland. Here's a few of our favourites if you need inspiration. But if you're staying home to beat off the bailiffs, you can now order in Firefly to keep you company. Could be just what you need. Order a case of Firefly (UK mainland only.) Order individual bottles from Ocado.

Do something silly

All this talk of macro-economics and quantitative easing risks making us very dull.  Time to take life a bit less seriously, surely. Like going out in the street and bouncing.  Yup, bouncing...  See Milicent's impeccably-timed group bounce (left). Even sillier, we're giving away a £1000 indulgence from Red Letter days to the most amusing "bounce".  Here's a few bounces so far.  You have until 31st March to do better.

Be nice.

Firefly was just named "Cisco Customer King" - which sounds terribly clever, but it turns out it's just for being nice to our customers.  All three of them. Next up: The employee award for turning up to work. But we did get to cringe at Harry being all English on this "Vodcast".

And gossip...

Well, it snowed.  But you knew that. Firefly was spotted in Rotorua, New Zealand; in the Firefly bar, Mustique; in Davos; and even on the 6 o'clock news. And Russian hats are so hot right now.

Hope things are bobbing along happily with you, and here's to a glorious Spring. All the best, Harry, Marcus, Caroline, Emma, Duncan, Julia, Richard, Jaime, Alice & Issey.    P.S. we liked these: Flying people Unfortunate ad placement Caitlin Moran on jogging
