Well, I think it is a disgrace that some of our local companies do not support. Ok, you talk about the money. Costs are only £50 for entry and then maybe the cost of the wagon to carry the 'cast'. Would not cost any company any more than £300 I would have thought.

Problem is, big companies do not run a Social Club anymore to organise such events, but with all the money some spend on marketing (Ossie Mills a prime example), surely this amount is not beyond their means and would create great team building. Of course, they are now cold in their catchments, meaning they market other areas rather than their home town because that is where their customers are to be found. Afraid it is management attitude, not the workers. Treated in the correct way, they would be able to create great camaraderie within their workforce !!

nice one kate i think i have started something
