Popular place is Barnard Castle. Home of one of the UK locations of GlaxoSmithKline pharmaceutical company and also the Honeyman Group Ltd who have been successful with providing a Covid antibody test.

"Paris-based Sanofi and UK-based GlaxoSmithKline expect to start a vaccine trial in September combining the first and second stages of clinical testing before kicking off a crucial Phase 3 study by the end of 2020.".

"Honeyman Group Limited of Barnard Castle, County Durham, announces the introduction of a high accuracy, rapid turnaround COVID-19 antibody testing service across the UK and Ireland."

BC provides a high quality, totally committed workforce. Being that far from the motorway doesn't matter when your product has such a high price per kilo and per cubic metre. Lovely countryside, sensible living costs...

Specsavers (other opticians are no doubt available), for some reason that I can't quite fathom, won't be needing to do much advertising on the area anytime soon, there'll be folk driving from all over the country to go visit. ;)

I'm due an eye test, I have been tempted to do that just for a laugh. Wonder if anyone (other than Cummings) has? :)

The local brewery was cashing in with something called "Barnard Castle Eye Test" or similar.
