I Told You Marks and Spencer Was Leet

LONDON (AFP) - Women fed up with their menfolk moaning while out Christmas shopping can now leave them to play in their own in-store creche.

Marks and Spencer, the venerable British department store chain, said Wednesday it was creating playpens for men in six of its stores, fully equipped with everything to keep the guys entertained for hours.

The lads will be able to settle back in sofas and watch a selection of films and TV programmes such as "The Best of Monty Python" and "Football's Greatest Ever Matches".

Each area will also boast a Scalextric slot-car racing set, remote-control quad bikes and walkie-talkies.

The creches open Thursday at Marks and Spencers' flagship store at Marble Arch in London, and at selected outlets in Edinburgh and Aberdeen in Scotland, Cardiff in Wales, and Sheffield in north-central England.

i feel like this has a strong chance of roping in _all_ the customers, not just men. wonder if they'd lose money?
