Presuming the financial numbers given are accurate, there is something odd about it all, as nothing seems to stack up.

Anybody with a degree of intelligence must, by now, be starting to question the whole affair.

It would seem to me Tesco has bought a "pig in a poke" and don't know how to get out of it. Meanwhile, the town's appearance is becoming gradually more forlorn; disastrous in a tourist town, and discouraging to local business.

Ten out of ten Mrs Semple.
