So that'll be 4 M&S within a few miles of town?
I now await all those who complained about Tesco taking over....
4 M&S branches? - Do you mean at Chieveley Services and the BP garage on London Road?
I'm not sure two measly Simply Food outlets at petrol/service stations constitute 'branches' - and certainly don't replace what we had in the town before - a large food section with adequate parking outside. Can't blame M&S for trying to hold onto their food customers they are losing because of the Parkway fiasco.
Tesco were, in my opinion, just trying to 'block' any competition - not sure this is the case with M&S?
