In which we offer you Discounts!

It’s been said that the approach of winter can be depressing.

This is something we have a certain degree of familiarity with at FireStar, as the shortening days lead inevitably to a sort of low-key melancholy that hangs over FireStar towers like a damp, Tupperware sky.

We’ve speculated that the new, more thoughtful mood might simply be a result of having less daylight hours available in which to pleasure boat in our company lake (and we get very cranky if we don’t get our daily quota of pleasure boating). But that doesn’t seem to cut it.

No, it seems the time of year has arrived when even the guileless smiles of Lego men, existing as they do in a perpetual state of Zen-like contentment, can’t entirely cheer us up. In fact, their serene faces start to appear mockingly self-aware. They know the secret of happiness, but damned if they’re going to share it with you, you monstrous flesh-giant. No, they’ll scuttle away to their brick kingdoms and live merrily, away from the fraught world of men. Look at any box of Lego you’ve forgotten in a loft somewhere – it’s what they’re all doing, guaranteed.

But, we digress.

No, we weren’t going to leave you flailing in our swamp of hastily induced despair. We have solutions!

That’s right, when FireStar feels blue, we cheer ourselves up with discounts! For you! (Sorry if that wasn’t immediately clear)
