because the idiots at Irn Bru who cannot spell wrote out the order for their next lot of supplies, and in their dyslexic confusion, they ordered GIRDLES! So you will find a lot of ladies on the streets with out-of-control wobbly tummies because they cannot find their corsets in the shops any more.
And that is TRUE, I promise you!!

I think it was deemed to be outdated marketing and also not the best strategy to market it outside of Scotland. People just didnt understand the slogan (bound to be some idiot completely misled by it). Right now the image that sells soft drinks seems to be, drink this cos young trendy ppl do or its the drink for ppl who love life, so just basically to appeal to a modern more diverse market they dropped the girders reference.
However cant say ive ever drank it without thinking the line "made in scotland from girders" (in a scottish accent in my head). Very catchy and kistch in my opinion. My mum is scottish, and I used to drink it all the time up there, tho much more widely available in England as well now.
Def the best drink with Vodka by a mile, anyone ever notice that!!!!!

It's down to the E.C. Irn Bru may now only be made from wood taken from sustainable forests. This is why production has been moved from Scotland to Sweden. It will be named Ikea Bru from January 2007.

ok so first of all that isn't the semen that travels to the egg that's the sperm. Semen is what the sperm are in while they arrive out. The sperm leaves the semen interior of a couple of minutes and travels into the womb. Then it travels via the tubes to the place it expects the egg to be. which could take hours or longer based upon how properly the sperm swim and how right this moment they pass. maximum sperm at the instant are not shaped right and that they wander off or swim around in circles or in simple terms trouble-free die earlier they get there. yet because of the fact that there are literally 1000's of them that is not generally a undertaking. Sperm can stay as much as 5 days, yet 2-3 days is extra complication-loose.

Health and safety. There was some sort of argument about hard hats and ladders. So they came to the conclusion it was better to make it from railway tracks.
