A WORCESTERSHIRE firm helped deflated football fans bounce back after England's World Cup blow.
Haswell Strategic Communications hired an adult-sized bouncy castle for workers in the area to release the stress of seeing England lose.
The public relations company arranged the inflatable after seeing yesterday's glum faces around its office at Stoke Prior, near Bromsgrove.
Staff gave out invitations to around 100 local firms in the area to put a spring back in their step following the 2-1 defeat.
"It was a horrible moment when the final whistle went and everyone's spirits were at rock bottom," said managing director Sue Haswell.
The firm arranged for the inflatable to be based in the garden of nearby pub, The Navigation Inn, after landlord Mark Fisher agreed to bring extra cheer to the area.
