Is that Ilford XP-1? If so, then "Yes". I used it while involved in a 
competeition to shoot a kind of local "Doomsday" book in 1985. We processed 
our own negatives in the school darkroom 'portakabin' (I learned to do this 
before ordinary ID-11 processing) at 38 Celsius or whatever, and got great 
photos, I thought. We had very basic enlarger and used Ilford Multigrade 
paper.

Best of all, I remember that the whole thing was great fun! oh and my camera 
was a C*n*n A-1 ;-) still got it as well, so there! It has a _very_ squeaky 
shutter.
