OK... it was an assumption, but an assumption based on which section of society would be most likely to accept the terminology. Â Still, the term exists whichvis worrying.

The logo is a mermaid so why did they not call the cider "the unshaven mermaid" or "the bearded mermaid" ?   There are strict rules regarding the branding and advertising of alcohol products which all drinks makes have to follow. Exactly this. There is a whole host of things that arent allowed in alcohol advertising, maybe members of the forum could go and educate themselves  https://www.ofcom.org.uk/__data/assets/pdf_file/0013/28021/rules.pdf Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Given the regulations they would err on the side of caution, on a base level its someone on a label of a bottle of cider with their tits out.

Not too sure, you would have to ask Ms Abbott.  Apparently she is looking for a map to try and find the atlas.  I don't support the current government, they are a shambles, I've mentioned that many times.

How do you know she's looking for an atlas or a map. On the other hand, we do know that the former Prime Minister got lost trying to find her way out of a room. Liz Truss gets lost trying to leave room at leadership campaign launch | News | Independent TV But you don't support them; however you don't support the other lot, even though you only point out the flaws in one side Edited February 22, 2023 by Mister M Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
alchresearch   215 #24 Posted February 22, 2023 I've been drinking cider for years and never heard of them.  A case of stirring up a bit of free publicity perhaps?  1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
