Cocker Chemicals (now NIPA labs i think)   Leaving that place was the best thing I ever did.

You can add Airtours to this list, thank goodness they moved to Rochdale.  Some other poor beggars are suffering now.

They are calling themselves something else now. *Something like 'Contours' I think.

Seriously, they moved over to Rochdale and I think they were having serious problems a month or so back, but I hadn't heard they had gone to the wall. *No bad thing if they have.

Still going as far as I know as part of My Travel, which keeps selling off various parts of the business, most recently World Choice Travel I think.
Believe their Eurosites arm is now part of Eurocamp.
Have heard similar remarks about the firm over the years.

Did 2 weeks work experience with a My Travel company a couple of years ago.
Definitely not somewhere I'd want to work full time.
Was supposed to be learning something there, what a joke.
Wanted to reorganise the whole place!. Couldn't believe the way they did things.
