Personal Life
Marks married Julia Law in Bradford in 1971. The couple have two daughters and live in Eldwick, West Yorkshire.
Marks is a keen musician in his spare time; he has said:
"I owe this business everything. It’s a fantastic business. I’ve never wanted or needed to work for anyone else. I’ve gone from nothing on the shop floor to one of the best jobs. Well, I can only think of one job better than this and that would be drumming for the Rolling Stones."
He plays in a Bradford band, "Last Orders", who regularly gig in and around Bradford, playing
"Chuck Berry style rock'n'roll to Lynyrd Skynyrd type rock of the 60s and 70s. Some country songs thrown in from such artists as The Eagles, Delbert McClinton and the like"
He is also a supporter of Bradford City Football Club.
