Hmm. Sold to a company with the same name as one of their brands. Sounds suspiciously like a prepack. Nothing on website except New company name and new registered address in small letters. I think that means they are no longer in administration but I can't see me ever wanting to use them again. Such a shame a great little local business like it used to be has come to this. Shows what happens when you completely destroy your brand identity by taking on the wrong business partner
