To get your brand noticed you need to be creative – or outright bonkers.

In all honesty what a great tweet to get everyone talking and to brighten our moods. On top of Weetabix’s post, there were some amazing responses by other big brands, including Sky, Specsavers and Sainsbury’s.

You okay hun? DM’s are open if you need to talk 💖
