[Leica] [img] Mark's PAW week 3

[mark at whitedogs.co.uk (Mark Pope)]

Thanks Matthew.  The Woolworths saga is sad, but at the end of the day, 
I think it was down to poor management and not understanding the market.

I think it will be a while before things get too prosperous in Swindon. 
  Two of the majoor employers are now Honda and BMW, both of whom are 
affected very badly by the economic situation.  Honda have just 
announced another shutdown...

All the best
