Has anyone else noticed, that within the Marks & Spencer entry in the alternative numbers database there is a strange "foreign" entry for Tesco at Marks Farm, Braintree? I suppose that has somehow found its way into that section due to the word "Marks" which has somehow been misinterpreted? I do not believe it should be there, but I would expect to find it under "Tesco".
That is due to the way the search engine works; it searches the "Other Information" field aswell as the company name.

One other issue is that if one does a search for "M&S" or "Marks and Spencer" this gives the result of nothing found on the database. Surely these plus "Marks and Spencers" should be common tags, so that a search for any of these four locates the same database? The common parlance is I believe "M&S" rather than "Marks & Spencer"?
Search of M&S finds the entries, as too does "Marks & Spencer" (note the ampersand rather than the word "and").
