Jah Lush needs to invite you all around to his, for a party where you can all smoke, take drugs and watch the Dulwich Omelete Football Club on the TV as they'd be in the Premiership.

THEN JJF, WHY??? DO YOU NOT CALL THE DAMN RSPCA AND REPORT IT. OR THE FOX PROJECT, THE NUMBER IS IN MY ORIGINAL POSTING. DO THE POOR ANIMAL A FAVOUR AND GET IT HELP SO THAT IT CAN DIE IT'S LAST DAYS IN PEACE AND NOT IN YOUR GARDEN UNDER YOUR DECKING!

1-Pay myself a huge salary 2- With the huge salary I'd by a house, in Devon. 3- Force litter louts to crawl on all fours and beg for forgiveness in the knowledge that littering in general would carry corporal punishment, under my rules. (could be a turn on for some) 4-Close the local pubs/bars on LL on the weekends, to anyone but a bona fide East Dulwich resident. 5-Set up a fox rescue project. 6-Allow myself unlimited access to the decks in The Gowlett on Lucky 7's night (there's so much music to share) 7-Put in a zebra crossing on the corner of the street outside Somerfield in LL. I'm sick of risking my life crossing the road. 8-Close Cafe Nero because they burn the coffee beans and that place is always a mess. (The staff are young, they'll get other jobs) 9-Enforce a clean up programme for the numerous African hair salons in Peckham Rye. The clumps of hair thrown out/blown out onto the streets is an absolute disgrace. and 10-Put an open air swimming pool in Peckham Rye Park, that, for the serious swimmers amoungst us, had certain times where you can only lane swim. Kids have their own times. Infaltables are optional. I thank you.

Peckham Rose it's not a problem! and malleymoo Jesus that's horrid!

Thanks Geo for your thoughts. And to those who have mentioned hunting, I really, really don't want to start getting involved in that debate. Cheers.

Great thanks DD. I only wish some useless w****r(s)(oh pardon my language)would grow up and not think that the death of a much loved British animal is a posting rife for taking the piss. I'll be in touch DD.

Pierre, you've only had 74 postings, ahhhh just like my lucky number '74'. Bless. Try harder next time not be such a cock when people are actually being sincere in their postings about animals.

You obviously do not have high culinery standards Manora Man.

Thanks DD, that's really cool. Although I live in London, I'm really for helping out voluntarily. Do you need some help?

Can you please give the pub a scrub down, and get rid of those awful 'catering chairs' that you have in the front bar. The place generally looks dirty.And the toilets....boy oh boy.

DPF, the person ie: ME, who wrote this is upset, and not in need of some off the wall, smart posting about what 'tools' the local rat polulation are carrying. Try your humour elsewhere.

Thanks Sue. Maybe I'm an old softy (a vegetarian softy!) so it really shakes me up. I just want people to be responsible with what they sling out into their gardens to keep foxes at bay.

This thread is very sad and I am still upset writing it, but have to tell you all. In the small wee hours this morning, I was woken by a noise in the back garden. I got up and saw from the bedroom window and very small fox cub roaming about the garden. It stayed for quite a while and was not frightened by the sound of me raising the blinds to get a better look at it. Then it disappeared into the darkness and I went back to bed. Later this morning, I again was woken up,but by a horrible whimpering noise. I went out into the back to have a look and heard a mixture of rasping, barking like sounds, along with this awful pitiful whimpering. I presumed that it was the cub and ascertained the noise was coming from under the decking. It must have gotten under through the gap between the tree and the deck. I called the RSPCA and they logged the call but could not tell me when they were likely to turn up. In the mean time I kept watch in the back garden. After about an hour and a half's wait I called The Fox Project who are based in Kent but have volunteers working all over London. (They have a volunteer in Dulwich as well). Luckily one of their staff was in the South London area and agreed to come over and help. Within about 20 minutes the lady from TFP arrived and we went to work trying to get the fox out from under the decking. I had to call the landlord who came round with a power drill to get loose the wooden slats. After the three of us had frantically pulled apart the decking, we saw the cub. It was the worst thing I have seen in my life. The sound of it's crying was so upsetting, all of us were in tears. He was so young that he had only just left the safety of the lair to start out life on his own in the big bad world. August apparently is cub season, when the babies go out to fend for themselves. He was lifted up, wrapped in a towel and placed in a crate. The lady from TFP gave him some pain relief and she took him off the a local vet. Unfortunately 40 mins later she called to say that the cub had passed away on route to the vets. The vet examined the cub and it died as a result of liver failure. It had been poisoned. This is where I have to take a deep breath and say, that a few weeks back I did put down some poison to get rid of a rat that had been getting very brave coming up to the back door in the back garden. However, I can say that although in hindsight I should not have killed that rat, the bait I put down was 'animal' friendly and would not have been harmful to cats, dogs or foxes. Believe me, when I heard it was poison that killed the cub, I fell apart. After showing the lady from the TFP where I had put rat poison down, she assured me that nothing larger than a mouse/rate could have gotten to the bait. I still feel awful though. So please people, if you have to put bait out, not only for the plethora of cats that seem to live in ED, please for the sake of the cubs that will be leaving the lairs from now onwards, use cages that can trap mice and rats, alive. Then dispose of them in the park. there's no need for anything to die. If you could have heard it crying for it's mother, you would understand how awful any form of bait/traps are. I know we don't like mice and rats running about the place but, please. All I can hear is it cry and all I can see is it's little body laying helplessly in pain.

I was in The Herne last night, and they had no draught beer because the gas was not working or something. We had two glasses of wine, one of which I took back because it was quite clearly 'off'. The place was a mess and stunk of farts/sewage/general nastyness. The selection of really bad furniture made the place look shoddy and there were tiny flies everwhere that were getting stuck on the split beer that covered most of the tables. Shame because the manager there seems to break his back to keep things on an even keel. The staff who all seem to be very young, adopt this attitude of 'couldn't really give a toss'. As I said, shame.

Get in there GB! Wonderful!!!!

b*llocks....I don't have much respect for figures in 'authority'. Coppers, PI's, ticket inspectors, and civil servants....odious.

good night lovely horsebox...xxx

maybe you should get back into yours, box for horse that is.....

what a load of bullcrap.

IMac is a confusing world. Rather like being blinfolded in the bush and told there's a salt water croc lurking behinde that tree over there, that you have to, blindedfolded, try and give it the 'death roll'. Game over. Unless you're into design IMac is pointless. But I hope you enjoy your new found journey.

Tiger Ranks, maybe having a pie and a pint and then a fight is your idea of a good night out? Because the crowds that frequent the HoiPoloi are rough. Rough with a capital R.

'Stalking people'...? oh dear. we can guess what you do for a living. A Copper, a debt collector, a PI...generally the sort of people we do not like. hmmm. Maybe don't tell the forum that's what you 'do' for a living BB.
