| Question for Simon re. Factory Visit 2008 Hi Simon,
Having enjoyed the 2007 factory visit so much I wonderd if you intend repeating the the pleasure ( well it was pure pleasure for me ) in 2008.
If so can I put my name down now please.
Also is there any chance of a factory tour of the Kentmere plant as I would be interested in attending both.
I know I am a sad case but the Ilford tour did more for my photography than any other event of 2007. I came away confident that despite what the digi doomongers say anolouge will see me and my grandchildren out.
Regards Paul. |

| Dear Paul,
I will be happy to arrange another factory tour of the ILFORD Photo plant at Mobberley in June 2008 :
As always, we have to ensure that we get sufficient people wishing to attend, for the time and resource required in planning such an event. Since this will be our third tour I will need to get some idea of people
who would be interested in attending, so please let me know.
Friday June 6th looks like a good day.
Depending on the feedback I will then announce how to book etc
Regards

| Go!
I was at the first visit and found it brill. Most welcoming and extremely interesting. If it wasn't such a pain getting there from here I would be tempted to go again. |

| I agree - GO!
It's easy to get there from here - I believe it's easy to get there from anywhere except the Hebrides...

| June 6th sounds do-able. Count me in! I missed the last one, unfortunately.

I'm certainly interested to repeat last year's visit. So, if you are looking for a minimum number of people, count me in. If there's a maximum, I'm inclined to offer up my place to someone who hasn't visited the factory before.

| I'd love to come again.
I will take the same position as Kraker; If there is an upper limit and there are people who haven't been before, let them go in preference to me.
Otherwise, Yes please
