What's a Rabbitt?

I hate bendy buses. There's no upstairs and you can't see out, and they take up miles of road. Please oh please let them be replaced soon!

Saffron, maybe you could phone a different vet, or the Celia Hammond people, or Battersea Dog and Cats Home, and ask their advice re whether restarting the immunisation programme is actually necessary? They might not want to help, but worth a shot?

How on earth could an owl fall off a roof? They have wings! Very glad this had a happy ending, I've never seen an owl in London, used to see barn owls when I lived on a farm.

You might change your plans regarding people staying at your house on that night, however, which is one of the questions :)

Item description plus lots of Qs and As, also hilarious :)) Funniest thing I've read for ages :D

Got mine ages ago, did it online (had no trouble ianr) but was a bit bemused because the census is supposed to be for a particular (much later) day, but it took all the details OK including who was staying at my house that day! I'm very cynical about the census, I've worked on it twice as an enumerator, the first time was OK, but the last time there were so many cock-ups I just can't believe the results can be accurate.

Yep, there's plans afoot .... music!

Mention of crocodile was a bit of a giveaway :))

I made notes, but they just say "review after six months", so I don't know about the road closure order being for longer. I also have a note that monitoring (traffic counts) would be in two stages and would take the knock-on effect on other roads into account, and that comments/feedback can be made at any time during the six months.

That's the Town Hall in Peckham Road, near the South London Gallery.

Yes I was at the meeting too and it was definitely a 6 month trial for the road closure.

Not according to this! Unless the article was referring to the price houses are advertised at rather than their actual sale price?

Nobody here is stopping her as far as I can see, and some people seem to like the idea. ETA: However if she just thinks it would be a nice idea but wants someone else to do all the work, then that's a different thing ....

London Transport doesn't exist any more, does it, since Tory privatisation? TfL isn't quite the same, I don't think. Like the trains, I thought the buses were now run by a number of private companies? When this first happened, all the buses were different colours depending on the company, until someone realised this wasn't great for tourists expecting to see the iconic red London bus ......

Such a weird thing - what I now realise is a fox has been digging up a bed in a wall at the front of my house, which I gather is to get at daffodil bulbs. BUT the other night I came home and found a raw egg buried in the earth there - complete with little lion mark, so must have originally come from a shop, not a local henhouse. I've just googled it and found the following: "I've just researched this and it appears to be foxes that bury eggs of all kinds in gardens. They gently pick them up in their mouth and carry it to a safe place, dig a hole and come back later to eat it. My neighbour and I have been finding goose eggs in pots and borders!" Well this poor foxy won't find his or her egg, because I put it in my wheelie bin thinking it was someone taking the piss :))
