Sorry I missed your response johnnson36 yesterday. I think as a consumer and investor in retail stocks, it pays to experience the lot - on line and bricks and mortar - and yes relieved to see you can now have a wee in Aldi Maryport and walk out empty handed with your face as red as when you went in to head to Sainsburys for your food later when you come off the M6.. Don't do ebay. Old dearie sold me a silver Mackintosh brooch which was silver in colour only, jewellery seller one Christmas was a scammer and bought a pair of dull diamond earrings. Three strikes and you're out.
I think you should be on the look out for Odey ending up in splendid isolation with the short here, HoF closing in the likes of the Manchester branch and M&S heading towards food only in a raft of towns because be it food or be it non-food, you are never going to have 100% of shoppers opting for on line or bricks. Well done to Marks in EK - not a single person who wants a job to go without when the branch in the town centre closes to move to a food only site at the Kingsgate on the edge of town. Wonder who the beneficiaries will be.
