It's not really. Look at it this way........with the former you feel stuffed and possibly sick afterwards and are likely to regret it, with the latter it will feel great when you stop.

StraferJack this is exactly what I mean! "To get extra time in bed" socks and shoes on the bus? Is it really necessary? And where does the loose hair from your dry shave end up? All over the seats which some poor unsuspecting person is forced to sit on after you! And as for deodorant.. astonishing. Ie written a short email to TfL and am awaiting a response as I couldn't find anything on their website regarding the application and use of potentially toxic materials.

Pish and tish Strafer - there's no equivalency. Shaving sprays face hair everywhere. Make up disnae.


No one but *Bob* said anything about shagging, and I couldn't give a fig if you put your shoes and socks on on the bus.


I hate it when you text though. That's really really fucking annoying. You should just sit there, face forward, hands gently folded in your lap, not speak to a companion, and keep your fucking hands still you nutter (your feet you can move for wriggling into socks though).


You're mental about this.

Most electric razors are quite poor at catching all facial/pubic hair adequately. The condition of some sinks after there use, as RosieH rightly points out, is often an ugly sight, even after extensive cleaning. I wouldn't even want to hazard a guess at the number of stray hairs which could escape with said use of one of these or a cut throat razor on public transport. Where do the boundaries for do's and don't's start that's the question?

    • 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.
