Too many glossy people around Quids. They are all cosmetic. Not real at all.


Very few people are "home made" these days. Most have plastic added. They do look nice though.


On Children in Need tonight:


Terry Wogan (home made) Vs The Blonde Girl (cosmetic, I suspect). I know who I'd rather spend time with....

Me. Nicole Kidman.

Me, certain in the knowledge that if Nic ever propositioned me along the lines of a night of no-strings sex then I'd acquiesce.

Danny Baker. One afternoon on his radio show mentions that Nic's teeth resemble baked beans. I'm sure he was backed up by Baylen Leonard as well.

There and then, for me, love dies.

Sorry Nic.

Don't blame the Candyman though, he knew not.

She keeps her dead Dad in the suitcase in the attic, that's not tight, it's just plain wrong


And her Mother, she's up there too no doubt . They have little tea parties, the conversation is a little one sided, stiffled even, but it soon warms up, isn't that right Dazie? Now where exactly does the "friend" live.



W**F

    • 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.
