I know who the SPECIAL comic GUEST will be at PULL THE OTHER ONE on April 10th. If you want to know who it is email me for a private reply OR [email protected] to RESERVE A TICKET . Last club was JOHN HEGLEY final Club on the 24th April will be SIMON MUNNERY . Who will be on the 10th?

Hegley was comic professionalism personified but for me The King of Dysfunctional Doo-Wop was simply superb(Considering he had to adlib for a good 10 mins due to a faulty sound system(given the nature of his act this is probably a regular occurrence)), an Uncle Fester lookalike who looped voice and sound samples in real time to create a stew of nonsense music which was peculiarly funky. Plus there was a penis...which is always good for a laugh. I also found the Compere

pretty sexy(even Though shes probably my Mums age). So, who's the mystery guest?

On MONDAY there wioll be an announcement of the winner of the free ticket to Pull the Other one on Thursday 10th. So all you closet writers pick up your quills and get scratching. I shall print all the reviews that have been received so far at [email protected] some people too shy to be published AND SOME simply not talented enough!!

Hey ! Bon3yard you are the winner!!!not just because of your creative talent...there was no competition. I shant print the reviews because most of them were complaining about the lack of bar service and poor sound for those standing at the back of the room (latecommers!!). It does appear also that although many of you came to see John Hegley you went away with Andrew Bailey in your hearts. I'm afraid Vincent Figgins baffled more than a few of you....he did misbehave a bit last club night and go off the point and repeat himself which I think we are all capable of when performing in front of the in laws which he did mention....uh? why? I thought he was Edwardian, wouldn't all his in laws be dead by now? Also there were quite a few who were afraid of and shocked by the penis. P.S. Pierette Socobaz probably IS your mother and that's why you wrote such a great review...still .....fairs fair you won it fair and square. If you email [email protected] with your name or pseudonim under which you would like to pick up the ticket.

Otherwise it shall be under your email name (which of course anyone could pick up if they got there before you!!) Have fun..be sure to get there before eight.

    • 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.
