I was pining for some Irn Bru (which is not easily available here due to the fact that the orange coloring is not approved by the FDA, what's their problem). I googled around trying to find out how to get some because the last bottle I had was over a year ago, and the one prior to that was Summer 2000 ad I really really need some soon.

Anyhow, I came across this

and I now feel better than I have in a long time.

Thankyou. I already found that site last night. Seems as though it's the least expensive way to go. Still, it comes to over $2 for a single 16 oz bottle.

Och!

Only works with a Scotch accent, hmm.
