We had a brief fire scare at Fruit Towers this morning. Nothing to worry about - it was a false alarm - all smoothies (and people) are safe and sound. We got a cheesy snap of the firemen with our drinks afterwards, and after looking at it I reckon it's probably worth a caption competition.
So, what the devil are those firemen saying to each other/us? Or can you think of a very, very amusing title for the whole ensemble? Post your caption in the comments by the end of Friday (20/10/06) and the best one gets a case of drinks.
25/10/06 UPDATE - this competition is now closed. Check out the side splitting winners here.
So whose idea was it to wear our new white kit in Innocent's kitchens?

Are you sure you want us to use this in our hoses?

Market Research,
In a recent study, it was found that:
Two out of three firemen drink innocent drinks with their right hand.

Now Sam, (Fireman Sam....geddit?! groannnnnn......) just drive the engine a bit slower on the way back; the smoothies are mixed well enough already........

We're innocent, honest - but are these bottles explosive?
Posted by: Oliver Dowding | October 18, 2006 at 03:42 PM
The two others felt they should leave it to the guy in the middle to explain just how they were going to douse the flames with their new equipment

How're we meant to put the fire out with one of these? We're obviously going to need the big cartons.

Is that a bottle of juice in your pocket or are you just pleased to see me?

the supergrans had been extra busy knitting big yellow hats for the humanoid innocent acai* smoothies. *pronounced very strangely.

If you want to play with a big hose, drink Innocent.

I think there should be fires here more often......

Well lads our job is done here "I think we should have an 'innocent' drink for the road"
Posted by: LEAH | October 18, 2006 at 06:25 PM
We did'nt manage to save any of the workers, but it's ok, because we've managed to save the smoothies.

Fresh, fruity, tasty, satisfying, guaranteed unadulterated pleasure ... and the smoothies aren't bad either!

The men on the sides just pose whilst the guy in the middle really is confused on why fuity towers insisted on the smoothies being rescued first...

Posted by: Duncan Lord | October 18, 2006 at 11:01 PM
That went quiet smoothly I think butif we don't look innocent they might think we did it on purpose.
Posted by: Deborah L | October 18, 2006 at 11:04 PM
Oooh, we could crush a grape.
Posted by: Helen | October 19, 2006 at 05:52 AM
Apparantly a guy called Matt made the hoax call. Something about wanting to take the spotlight off a pair of tartan pants.

Well, you'll have to prove you're innocent - now please come through to the manager's office and don't think we haven't noticed the one in your trouser pocket.

These guys maybe "hot" - but they're not so "smooth" as "Innocent"

We think your customers will think we're saying these are 'flaming tasty'. Mmm, and they are!

Someone called 999 and said these smoothies just taste too damn good..
Posted by: John | October 20, 2006 at 02:50 PM
I'm sorry guys, but not being able to decide which Innocent smoothie is the best does not constitute as ‘an emergency’!

To the innocent looking guy on the left: One smoothie is enough for any fireman, there's really no need to try and smuggle an extra one away in your pocket...
