There is a bizarre pound shop up here
that has all these weird 'edge of shelf' stickers with strange statement on, like

"Look mum, it's only a pound"

"Don't worry, everything really is just a pound"

"Spend a pound, save a fortune"

Proper freaked me out

That is quite scary
Does everyone walk around in silence because their thoughts are already on the walls on stickers?

As pound shops go, this one is quite bizarre.

I'm bringing 'pal' back.
It's in danger of dying.

"Here pal"
Is still a very common way of attracting the attention of someone who's name you don't know in Glasgow.
