Of course snorky also went through a phase of saying 'word' in that strange fingers pointed, lost normal use of arms type way that youths are prone to these days. That's the problem with t'internet, alot of strange men out there pretending to be women, I don't see why the reverse shouldn't be true; my god we've even got two examples of severe egoanthropomorphism going on in our own fair forum, a fish and a dog who thinks it's the ides of march. Come back batdog, we miss you.


That all said, yeah, you're probably right keef.

To answer the question, yes I am.


By the way, if I have learned anything about snorky you will have made his day with that post, which I'd guess is not your intention. Unless you ARE snorky... why, you cunning little minx!

I suspect Moos is right....and the mysterious 140183 could well be Snorky.


Personally I would quite like a "I'm a little bit in love with Snorky" thread.... not that I agree with everything s/he says but they are a bit like a firecracker, shaking us up a bit... and delivered with originality and verve.

    • 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.
