totally fascinating to put some names to faces last night

some people are just like there forum personalities

and some seem to have constructed an alter ego for the fun of it


who are you online

1. nemesis?

2. alter ego

3. true self?

4. or a little bit naughtier self? (that's me!)

I'm definitely me and think i come across in my usual garbled manner but not as my forum name describes. Oddly I wasn't aware that chuff was a word for lady bits and now every time I post, I have a picture of myself as a sort of burger with legs in my head.


Hope nobody else thinks same.


Chuff

Hope I did not give the wrong impression(!)

even though I said I was a 4. I do naturally have a bit of a minx-ish streak, was always getting into trouble at school for making people laugh in class and I guess that trait has never really gone away, so probably just me online and in person

4. is 3. as (in me) they are one!

I'm me, only uncensored by embarassment -


those rants that I wouldn't necessarily unload in person I feel I can let-fly on here. Or at least that was forum-me. Oddly, now I've got to know people in person, I don't have that comfortable anonimity anymore, so I'm starting to feel like censoring myself again.

well that's cool Moos, cos your posts are often funny and clever, a great combo:)

actually ???? I think that someone was me... but horrors, in hindsight think I had muddled your online persona with someone else's....(not now going to put my foot in any further and name names here!!!) think I mentioned "rough-tough and like satan incarnate" in what was meant to be a jokey way.


How totally totally daft and rude on my first EDF drinks!! foot in first, typical me!!! was not meant in anyway to be a bleedin' insult to the online you, though thinking back (ops ops ops and ops) I can see that you might have taken it that way, hope I am forgiven:-$

    • 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
