I had a mate Cyril Wilson who worked for them as a lad at that time.
Hi Catherine. Was you dad Don. We went out briefly in the mid 70's!! He was a really nice man. I met him in the Squirral pub in Horwich where I worked at the time. He bought me a lovely old English sheep dog called Ben. I then moved to jersey and had no further contact but always wondered what happened to him.
