Daniel said the firm took the unexpected crop in good humour. He added: “We were inundated with messages saying ‘have you seen how your post looks’.
“We’re fairly relaxed about it. At the end of the day we don’t take ourselves too seriously.
“We were red in the face but chortling. I thought it was quite funny really.”
