Lets Get M & S in Canada
 
I emailed Marks & Spencers to ask if they have any plans to bring their stores over to Canada (admittedly I did suggest Alberta). They thanked me for the interest and said they would moniotor the situation. So here's a thought, why dont we all email and ask and then they'll have to.

Just think Ladies, perfect fitting bras,:thumbsup: and gents gorgeous ready meals.:wub:

Here is the link if you fanct it.

They used to have shops in Canada. I remember 12 yrs ago buying goods from the M & S store in Toronto.

Yup. They pulled out of Canada in about 1999 iirc. I need some new sweaters quite soon. I'd better go to Europe.

They came, They saw, They Were Conquered, they left.

I have to admit, I don't use the Brit stores here but if there was an M&S (especially one with a food hall) I would definitely pop in for treats! Gastropub moussaka....mmmm...:D

However S&M is still alive and well in Canada.

If I remember correctly they closed most of their worldwide stores around the same time...they weren't profitable.

I've always prefered this version:

vidi, vici, veni.

I suppose I'll get banned for that.

My best S&M (if thats what you meant) story is about my wifes girlfriend from 30 years ago, she wanted to try a bit of Bondage, so got her boyfriend in on it, he took her up to his attic, stripped her naked, tied her to the roof beams. . . . . .
