SIR – Those who said no-one in their right mind would invest in Bradford should take a look at the new largest warehouse in the Marks & Spencer network, built on the former site of West Bowling Golf Club.

Initial work is expected to see 200 to 300 jobs on site, and this is expected to reach in excess of 1,200 (T&A, July 12).

‘Left with egg on one’s face’ springs to mind.
