    Default Benny brings back the Celtic Tiger years

    Below is a section of the report from C&C the makers of Bulmers Cider, may I be the first to congratulate Benny on his dedication and commitment to put the Irish recovery back on track all by himself.

    DRINKS MAKER C&C said it expects its full-year operating profit will be €110 million, within the range of its previous guidance.
    The group said it had seen an improvement in trading in Ireland during the second quarter with volumes of its cider brands Bulmers and Magners up by 1 per cent on the same period a year earlier.

    In an interim management statement issued yesterday, C&C said Magners performed particularly well in Ireland in the three months to the end of June last with a 5.8 per cent increase in volume and a 7.8 per cent increase in net revenue. Exports of Magners outside of Ireland and the UK also rose with a 31.9 per cent increase in volume in the third quarter.

    No don't blame Sophie, anyone that can stay in benny's company for longer than one pint deserves all our sympathy.

    Speaking of which, anyone else find it coincidental that Felix drinks cat piss (aka cider)?
