Hi -
I put a link to the web site in the original post rather than type everything in again, they have done hte announcement as a graphic so you can't "cut and paste" the text.

Hi TonyC52, you can go to file at the top of the tool bar and scroll down to save as, then just save as a jpeg file, then up load to photo bucket copy and paste, I have reduced the size to fit this form.
Noticed it is cash only. No doubt dealers will be there buying up most vans and sellfor double the price paid, hope some of the rank and file caravaner’s can get some of them.

If in Doubt Check it Out.
I was thinking of going to pick up a couple of bits and pieces. Then I decided that I didn't want to pick over the corpse with the poor employees still there - we have been going to ours since before Discover bought them out. Its a very bad business all round.
you may as well go and get a bargain or two if you can or you will just end up paying in full from a dealer who got it cheap, just wish i had not recently bought our cadac safari chef, then i would have got a carri chef im gonna see if i can beat the vultures(dealers) and get a new battery

I know how you feel, but have all the staff been paid and got their redundancy?, the money from the sale might help them, after the Revenue and everyone else up front takes theirs.
agree with tony and alan its a sad affair but unfortunately a way of life, putting the shoe on the other foot i dont suppose the staff at discover stopped buying cling film when the factory where i worked made people redundant on 3 occaisons before closing down

We bought our current caravan from the Finedon branch of the Caravan Company, lovely people and we got an excellent deal. Funnily enough our previous van was from Barrons. I think I can feel another trip to Northants coming on...

We brought ours from the Reading branch and I agree that they are a great company. The staff are really nice , know there stuff, and aren't pushy at all. We have said that we will probably look to change the van in 18 months time and when we do we will be going back to them!

You might as well - I am a former employee who was there the day we ceased trading, and I'd much rather customers got the stock that is left over than it goes to waste. I may very well go along myself - I could also do with a few bits and bobs, and I'd rather they were put to good use.

Nope - we are all still waiting for not only the redundancy but for 3 and 1/2 weeks pay from 20th Sept - 14th Oct. From the letter I received I gather the staff are very low in the pecking order and may possibly be graced with monies owed by mid Decemeber.
