bad news
wonder will it effect the newcastle branch

[Robert Lambie]

I do not know Derek, I don’t think it is effected.

The Scotland branch went under today.
I forget the name and exact amount, but i know there was a Scottish sign firm that went bust some months ago and owed them around £60-£70k, so that would be a sore hit to try and sustain for a small branch.

Cheers rob
Hope Gateshead isn’t affected but Iwould imagine some knock on effect
I use them now and again and they are always helpfull

I heard a lot about this and unfortunately another local metal company suffered from this massively. I actually seen last week said bust company was having their exterior building painted and new signs going up… shameful.

First fix is a company we stopped using as much when they moved premises earlier in the year but all a great bunch of staff that always delivered. Hopefully it’ll work out for them but from what I’ve heard they were due to be paid the months salary tomorrow and fingers crossed that works out for them with it being holiday season and school holidays.
