Happy Friday!


As an avid EDF forumite (although I read far more than I post), I often wonder what you all look like. I already have images of a few of you in my head - Keef, for some reason I think that you probably look like David Arquette, and Dulwichmum probably looks like Felicity Kendall! So, my question is, what famous person do you look like? Keef/DM feel free to put me straight!!

It was Twisting My Sobriety and was as cheerful as the title sounds.

Strangely deep voice for a women.

I never thought of it as flattering.


More recently I have been told I look like Abbie from ER. I don't see it myself and, rather worryingly, when Mr J heard that he said "no you don't, I really fancy her!"

Jack Black's pretty cool! Have you seen School of Rock? Our boy's favourite movie at the moment - inspiring him to learn the Smoke On The Water riff, and to blather on about 'sticking it to the man'

That has given me faith that there is hope for the future! :)-D

Having seen a couple of your 70s photos I have to admit there is a likeness! It's okay, his looks make him very popular with a lot of the ladies, he's just a complete terd, but we never said you shared anything in personality! ;-)

    • 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.
