That rubber band has reached breaking point now (and incidently, that's just about all that is holding the press together right now).

There was virtually no time for routine maintenance at Dinnington three years ago, so goodness knows how they will find time to prevent the big rubber band going snap. When it does, there will be lots of national and regional papers not hitting the streets for a day or so . . . if they are lucky. Surely the long-term view is to find more outside work for the press at Peterborough and invest to keep it up to spec. Talk about all the eggs in one basket – well, three.
