A guy that had been previously barred (unknown to Bar staff) was holding his Birthday celebration with a large group of friends.


He was asked to leave. The situation got heated with his friends. The Police were called to deal with the situation.

Could not of been me.


1. I was not there.


2. It was not my Birthday.


3. I don't have any friends.


Foxy

Aww Fox! Is trouble becoming more prevalent in the EDT? Only ask as I was having a pint in another local establishment this evening and while I was at the bar they took a call saying a group of ne'erdowells had been ejected from the EDT and watch out if they were coming that way...

I was in the EDT last night. 8.45 - 10-30ish no one ejected during that time, that I was aware of.

Having said that, the EDT was Rammed last night and there was an air of unease.

Very rowdy, loud. Someone else commented 'we are getting all the idiots from The ******* in here recently.'


It was getting even busier as I was leaving.


Foxy.


ETA. Worth remembering it is the end of the month (last Friday) and many people would of just been paid.

Everywhere on L.L was busy last night including on the street.

    • 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.
