UK retail sector sees fragile recovery

The UK retail sector is making a comeback with the rest of the economy.  A report from the Confederation of British Industry (CBI) shows that the high street is growing faster than at any time since the beginning of the recovery last September.

Almost half of high-street retailers report that their sales have gone up since this time last year, while just over ten percent said their receipts are down.
