Ah, you mean me. Well as someone who grew up in Macclesfield, Cheshire (check how close it is to Mobberley on a map, it's damn sight closer than Canada) I do know people from my school who went to work for Ilford. In fact I think most of the bottom forms went to the production lines at Ilford, Ciba-Giegy or Astra-Zeneca. I haven't seen any of them to speak to recently, but last time I did about a year ago the chap said "Everything is great, sales are up, there's a resurgence in B&W don't you know?". According to the Manchester Evening News "The 740 staff at Ilford's factory in Mobberley, near Knutsford, were told the shock news today." I don't think they knew William. I certainly didn't. Chris
