And now I have found out that someone at head office has sorted out a new Electricity supply deal, it may suit the parent company but on one of our machines I have worked out that its going to increase the annual Electricity bill by £55k, total extra cost through this new deal to our site will be in the region of £100k.

Somehow I think we'll be closing in March 2010, just hope they pay out the redundency I would be owed
