police were going in 77 u silly cow. rats was 77/78 dire straits Sultans of Swing was 78 . whose the troll now??

So you think the Police, Rats and Dire Straights were Punk bands do you wallpaperhead? And the peak years of punk were when? Police released their fitst Album in 1978. Their first chart success was in 1979 with Roxanne and they are regarded to be a New Wave band not Punk. Do I need to similarly educate you on the Rats and Dire Straights?

Did you haved to bring up Lieutenant Pigeon? (c.1972)

Some people were waiting for others to turn up and they were very exited about the whole idea of getting together and meeting knew friends.


The crowd didn't allow that so wasn't his fault. He can do anything if he doesn't know what to aspect from the party. Is his faul or Who's fault is it !

hers/his who knows they shouldn't over react now.

They are happy to be kept in the guest list or No Whatever.......they should decided what they really want.

    • 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.
