The Winter's Tale?

Hello Vending People!

To conclude The Winter's Tale, we just wanted to let you know that our letter, representing love's labour's lost has turned to being love's labour's won.

For whilst those of the yellow arches might have felt that it was all much ado about nothing, it really has been a case of all's well that ends well.

If our moment of Shakespearean wandering has you confused, the McCafé YouTube video to which so many (but particularly the BDV (German Vending Trade Association) and the EVA (European Vending Association)) took exception to has been taken down from the internet and will not be aired on German TV again!

So whilst we may not still be lovin' it, we thank them for doing the right thing... eventually.

Thought you might be pleased to hear this!

Not quite a letter to Santa!

Good morning lovely Vending people

Having told you all that we "weren't lovin'" the golden arches take on vending, we decided to put digital pen to paper...

In case you haven't seen it elsewhere, then read our open letter to the folks in charge

Not quite a letter to Santa, but at least there's no ambiguity about our thoughts!

Tell us what you're thinking on this Merry Monday!  Ho! Ho! Ho!

What a difference a day makes...

24 little hours...

Hello Again!

Yesterday we were "Outraged of Oxford" by an advert from the famous yellow arches that portrayed our industry in very poor light.

Well, 24 hours later, what do you think of this little gem (no, we're not vending lettuce, just yet!)

A world of difference - I guess we're "Happy of Hampshire"

Have you had your cup of coffee today?

Let us know what you think

We're not "lovin' it"

Good morning lovely vending people

We're not sure if you've come across this advert yet, so we wanted to share it with you.  

Watch this clip

Thing is, we really thought that the clever people in the creative industries were done with lazy stereotypes and cheap jibes.

Seems not!

We're drafting a few words to the owners of the yellow arches, because frankly we're not"lovin' it"

We can add your name to that letter if you want; just get in touch with us and let us know
