Simon, I just signed up myself and my wife (we will be flying in from Maryland!). The only question I have is if its permitted to bring our cameras : )

Thanks for setting this up,
Perry

I went on the 2006 tour and a number of participants had cameras. The shots may still be in the members' organised gallery. It was quite dark in the film and paper processing area but one member had the foresight to use flash. I don't remember seeing him at the end of the tour and haven't seen any post from him since. I wonder what happened to him? He may still be on the Ilford site. They were pouring concrete shortly afterwards. Only kidding

can't wait !
Hi Simon I do hope I get the chance of a visit.

I have used Ilford...sorry now Hardman films and papers for over 50 years and the chance to see the materials made would be huge thing for me.

Thanks for the generous offer.

Bob Robertson..Rochdale.

Bob I think that Hardman films and paper are made in the East End by the Mitchell Bros.

Harman still demands money for its products but without menaces


Mind you, have a look at Dave Millar's gallery reference and the shot of these crossing the road on the tour. Scene looks like one out of "Reservoir Dogs" so you may be right about Hardman products.

Simon, have you given any more thought to shooting a video version of the tour for the thousands of us who can't get there in person? As far as I'm concerned, it wouldn't have to be professionally done at great expense in order to be interesting.

On the 2007 tour, Ilford were fine with cameras being used away from sensitive areas of the plant.
There are a few shots in my gallery here: http://www.apug.org/gallery/showgall...0&ppuser=13965

I will consider the video tour, for sure, will come back when we have a solution
