Hi Keith

I send all my processing to Peak Imaging, including Quickload and have always had very good service at competitive prices.

Keith Hi

For the past 10 years I have used Loxley Colour (www.loxleycolour.com ) for all of my processing - ie: 5x4 @ £2.35 + VAT per sheet + PP (min/charge:- £3.50 + VAT

Another shout for Peak, quality has always been excellent, and I haven't found anywhere cheaper in this country. Always return my boxes as well if I remember to ask. They also do good prints.

Just to add to the picture; I now use Leach Colour in Huddersfield. Quality is fine and pricing ranges from £1.73+vat per sheet for singles down to £1.30 for more than 20 at a time.

Hi Keith

Spectrum Photo Labs in Plymouth (6 Stonehouse Street) process Readyload and Quickload. They don't do an E6 run everyday, but I usually get mine back by the next day. Had excellent results so far.
