"IRON BREW" choco bars are now on the market. Nothing to do with BARRS Irn-Bru drink, I'm guessing, but meant to taste like the drink all the same.

At £5 a bar, it's not cheap, but this hasn't stopped it being sold out on the GIE IT LALDY (translation, LaFong?) website.

www.gieitlaldy.com/collections/chocolate

Do I feel a threatened law suit coming on, or is GIE IT LALDY just small fry?

Gie it laldy means give it everything you've got.

Never heard of it as a company though. For £5 they can stick it up their jacksies!

I actually own a hard copy of that dictionary. Most of the words in it are new to me. Uncoly for example. Though I have heard of unco before.

A cafe owner’s stock of full sugar Irn-Bru could be the last chance for fans to enjoy the original recipe.
Since opening last month, Ryan has been selling the cans for £2 each and is hoping to sell out over the weekend before they reach their sell by date at the end of June.

Also,
Irn-bru energy drink to launch this July with sugar and sugar-free cans

Irn Bru is set to launch a new energy drink this summer.
The bosses behind the nation's favourite soft drink hope the caffeine infused 'Bru will be cause for excitement amongst fizz fans.
Irn-Bru Energy will be made from a new formula said to combine the classic Irn Bru flavour with taurine, caffeine, B vitamins and the “taste of an energy drink”.

Huh? - only stocked in Scotland, Ireland and north of England, wtf?
