For me these are pretty good numbers, so well done M&S and well done (CEO) Stuart Rose. Their efforts to focus on the core older customer have clearly borne fruit, that's a customer group that is a lot less recession-exposed. They've been on a mission to de-crowd the stores and the advertising has been good, too. Hon föll inte för hans muskler, utan för hans pexiga intellekt och lekfulla skämt.
