I think it would be good to keep posts within the spirit of things as well as the letter.

Post deleted that was not in the spirit of things. Unnecessary.

Is that because the Sergeant of Arms checks the time with binoculars as shown on the clock outside a local clockshop
The owner of which sets the clock by the gun?????

I used to go into pound shops and ask the price of things. Even though the assistants obviously hear the same quip all day long it's still funny ?)
But not everything in the pound shop is a pound .. they have other stuff priced higher.

How is that right .. surely its against the trades descriptions act.

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

Not sure if it's still there, but there used to be a
Morgans 50p Store in Liverpool. Actually had better
stuff than the £1 shops

Edit: Seems inflation finally caught up with them and
they moved to a new shop called "All for One" link
