Hi all

Just a reminder that we've unfortunately had to postpone tonight's planned event with Gillian Clarke, as part of the East Dulwich Literary Festival.

However, we do still have to brilliant events still to come:

Tomorrow night, Evie Wyld (mutli-award winning young author and owner of the Review bookshop in Peckham) will be discussing and reading from her books, alongside performances from the fantastic Bookshop Band. Check out their tribute to Hilary Mantel's 'Bring up the Bodies' here: http://thebookshopband.x10.mx/The_Bookshop_Band/Bring_up_the_Bodies.html.

Thursday night we have Gerald Dickens performing two one-act pieces celebrating the life and work of his great-great grandfather.

Both events take place at Harris Girls' Academy East Dulwich, starting at 7.30pm and with tickets on the door for ?2.50. Contact me on [email protected] for more information.

  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.
