Hi,

Regarding Ilford...

They have their "digital plant" in Marly, near Fribourg (home of the cheese
fondue!) here in Switzerland, about 100 km from Geneva where I live...

Ilford's "traditional plant" is in England, but as far as I know it won't be
for long...

I have a hard time understanding why Ilford would put out paper under a
different name, given their prestige in the photographic industry.

Thanks Hans.

That changes everything.

I went to Ilford's web-site a week ago and didn't 
notice "Switzerland".

Funny, they's sell a private brand that was better than their own 
paper. 

Hmmmmmm......
