Just avoid Cancun like the plague.

come on Georgia.. you can do better than that


I can "bump"

Tony from the burbs can "bump"

Madworld74 can "bump"


You are the events organiser along with Mike "ooh but I'm travelling again" Paeleantologist - let's bump with a bit of brio, people!!!!!

Was just teasing young lady - no need for "smileys" !


But as it's just over a week away and as it's in Nunhead (only juuuust) where many people may not usually stray I'm hoping that loads of people come along and check this place out - it's really very nice indeed

Biff!


I like the sound of this one. And have given myself the week off. So I may put in a second appearance. If I can keep away from that camera. I've had a thing about camera's ever since Cosmopolitan made me look like a mutated version of Mark Ronson in one of those "What boys really think about your breasts" style stories.

    • 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.
