I have a largish pyracantha, currently in a wooden trough, which is looking for a new home. I was training it against a fence and trellis but being pyracantha that obviously wasn't a good idea! I don't really have room for it as have quite a full and established garden, including a very large pyracantha the berries of which are loved by the birds. I will be taking it out of the trough and transferring it to a plastic pot or some such receptacle in the hope that somebody out there would like it and can give it a good home - I would be loathe to destroy it even though it would go into compost.

Currently it is about 4ft high and roughly 3ft wide at the top. The label is no longer on it and I really can't remember if it is orange or red berries. I have pruned it back on occasions but really needs to be left to do its thing. Free to somebody who would really like it.

Thank you.

  But all those examples sell a wide variety of things, and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?

  ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores. At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024: "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network. We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."

  Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers... the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition Ooooh! Two cheese shops

  You've got a point. Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
