just sent a tweet to @tim_cook asking why he gets to make decisions on my music - it's impossible to delete the dirge as well.....

Sans irk here too. No major issues, been for a swim and now about to flop with whodunnit and herbal tea. May have a temporary irk tomorrow though as going to bed with wet hair and will wake up with mad curls. Such fun for the postman.

Travel website selling me a ticket for early travel only to find I cannot collect the ticket until 9am.


No other option. I have tried. Bring on ticketless travel and being able to purchase everything using my phone/smart tech.


(Mind you Quids' Toad-in-the-fooking-hole post has cheered me up no end. HMB is right. Watch this space. 2015. Gonna be HUGE).

31 and out for the perfect round


6 rounds of 4 straight in the hole


and then the clincher .. land the last one on top. Can't touch the back. Or go in the hole


Proper game. Nerves of steel


None of this 4 hours on the internet to win 8 dollars nonsense

    • 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.
