OK then, you can get down now (gives long hard stare).


And as for you Mr Brum, we shall have less of that tone young man!


I have no time for naughtiness this morning. I am limbering up right now for a class at 10 am. Shosh said that it is not on this Saturday morning, but the web site says it is (sigh). I look so fabulous in my new tracksuit, I shall just pop along to make sure...

I didn't go for a romp in the park the end. I broke a nail on one of my electric rollers and was forced to make an emergency visit to a local beauty emporium. Grooming is everything you know. And no Michael, I did not knit my track suit myself sweetie. I am as helpless as a tiny baby when it comes to anything to do with domestic chores... (sigh)

I don't recommend this at all speaking from experience...........look what happened to you.......you've been deactivated! Probably me next. Reminds me of the Daleks.......'Exterminate,exterminate'

Declan sweetie,


What exactly are you trying to say?


I am simply hanging around this forum being fabulous. I don't expect to be bombarded by private messages from men insisting to see pictures of me in my pants...


Naturally the Admin bars anyone who gets too amorous...(sniff)

It won't happen, I initially tried to have a conversation with DM and she railroaded me then tried humiliation, and I really did'nt get the joke initially and I cameback with some attacks, If any one was going to be banned for attacking or questioning DM then It would have been me. Being an honest person I take things at face value, however this is the web and who am I? you? or anybody else is anybodys guess.

Yes it is true DM I am drawn to you, I need some advice on a project I am in the middle of developing, I am not sure of the mix I should use for the screeding of the bathroom floors, or the sand to be used, should it be a 3 in 1 or 5 in 1 mix, should I use course or fine sharp sand? I would be greatful if you could get back to me ASAP.
Mike the only project you're in the middle of developing is beneath the belt line going by the messages you've been sending DM. Although to be honest I can't blame you as we've all been there at some point but most of us bought a t-shirt, not a camera with a telescopic lense. But don't give up yet, she's actually quite nice once you get to know her.

    • 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.
