Going viral
A few of the businesses which chose ‘Corona’ as a brand name and now have a bit of an image problem:
— Corona beer — brand of lager owned by Anheuser Busch InBev.
— Corona Energy — gas and electricity supplier to businesses and the public sector.
— Corona Pine Furniture — range from Mercers Furniture of Rotherham.
— Corona ‘the 2D game engine’ — software for designing video games.
— Corona, the ‘lemon capital of the world’, a city of 160,000 people 45 miles from LA.
— And one which changed its name in time: Corona lemonade — South Wales manufacturer taken over by Britvic in 1987 and rebranded.
Bridge too far
The government was confirmed to be undertaking a scoping study into a possible bridge linking Scotland with Northern Ireland.
