I live in a very nice town in West London, expensive houses, yummy mummies.... I've lived here all my life and am not one of the 'rich' newbies that have moved into the area. Our High Road has a new shop opening this week, a Poundland! I for one cannot wait, but blimey the response from residents on our local website is shocking... They are up in arms! Talking of house prices dropping, all sorts of 'unsuitable people' walking around, an eyesore on the High Road...
Do you think half these people have any idea about the real world?
I don't think ANY of them have the slightest idea knowabit ! But I wouldn't mind betting that a lot of them will be found in the Pound Shop. You will be able to recognise them by the dark glasses concealing their identity !
It'll be like Aldi, Knowabit.....oh the people who wouldn't be seen dead in Aldi at one time......including many of my friends...and who do I bump into there now?....☺
Baldric's post reminds me of the statement that was made at the Lady Chatterley trial ...." Is it a book that you would even wish your wife or your servants to read ?”
and sometimes it's embarrassing when the assistant at the till points out it's actually 2 for £1 on the item you want, + you have to dash back to the shelves to grab another, lol! ;)
