Hi All

A bit of good news for a change, after all the Caravan firms in Hull laying hundreds of workers off, and closing down.

The old Cosalt factory in Hull has been sold to Rix (Petroleum) who are a local company, who are re-hiring 100 workers to start building Statics again.

Lets hope its the beginning of an improvement in the industry.

Cheers

Paul

About time we had some good news!

I really believe that when we switch on the news and hear something positive for a change, then the country will start going forward again.

However we all know that good news dosent sell newspapers!
