Manchester was a small, "old-fashioned" intimate unit where everyone was friendly and there was a modicum of morale. I used to work at such a unit at LHR and laterly B Watch at West Drayton. I too felt the loss of intimacy, comradeship, friendliness, call it what you will when Swanwick opened accompanied by that poisoned chalice of privatisation. I can well understand the reservations of staff transferred from Manchester to Scotland. It could be worse, you could have been transferred to Swanwick!
