Skirting round the town on the by-pass a little earlier than usual I notice something that isn't usually there; a plume of fairly thick smoke rising straight up above the now leafless trees. For a moment, I thought, in a provincial town nowadays conspicuously lacking in any heavy industry, what enterprise could account for this level of pollution or indeed permit such a spread of contaminants?
Then i realised the factory in question at one time sighted on the outskirts of town and obscured by trees is now actually only separated by the said trees from the main road. We are here speaking of what has become a growth industry of late and a success story that's projected to continue for a number of years. Despite the freeing up of the marketplace the factory still enjoys a local monopoly.
