Isn't that logo a few years old now? According to Facebook they've used it since 2016.

What a stupid slogan.
Yepp. Utterly meaningless.

Not High Street, but First Utility has been rebranded as Shell Energy. The company was bought by Shell last year.

Just spotted this - looks like Boots are freeing their logo from its capsule and finally ditching that hideous nursery school rounded font they've been using for far too long. And also adding the date they were established, which is apparently mandatory with all high street rebrands now.

Glad that rounded font is hopefully going, they've tweaked the logo too the 't' now no longer extends to the 'B', but as can be seen the oval seems at limbo whether it's staying or going, I personally don't mind the oval-less version.

The rounded font is called VAG Rounded, it was the corporate font of Volkswagen AG.

ANd good riddance to it, and the overlarge signs that they use.

They should be called Jaffa Cake Nibbles rather than Jaffa Cakes Nibbles but they're very nice and that's all that matters.
