No horses.


They buy you a pint on their round, but ask for a bucket of beer for themselves when it's your round... Most rude.



Glad lurkers are welcome, btw. I'll slink in, gawp for a little, then ambush the ones least likely to turn on me like a pack of dogs.


See you all on Fri!


Cheers

Have a look for a big-ish group (certainly by 8:30 - we can be slow starters) - if we look cool enough then come say hello.

If you find a cooler group say hello to them, suss them out and then come tell us where the party is... Cheers! ;-)


As Mockney points out you should recognise many of us from the flickr group (assuming you can access it - I can't at work grrrrrr)


Main thing is - take the plunge - I felt nervous but these evenings are always fun

I hope it goes well. I am going to have to give it a miss as I am going to be at this beer fest at Earls Court all day and don?t think it would be very edifying to rock up perilously arsed on ale, slurring and sloshing my pint on everyone.


I will be at the next one though or the birthday one, whichever comes first.

    • Watching my cats over the years with foxes, I've found that foxes have totally ignored them. One exception was when a young fox hadn't seen my cat and found himself eye to eye with my cat at a distance of 1 metre. There was a stand off but the fox blinked first and my cat chased him out of the garden. So proud of her. I believe when foxes have attacked cats, the cat has been vulnerable  - old, young, ill wounded.
    • It's also possible that someone is hand feeding foxes and encouraging them by this to approach others. I have heard of foxes attacking young children (if only anecdotally) but not adults. They do seem to attack cats. 
    • I've noticed the foxes are very frisky at the moment, it's mating season. Perhaps it was a male fox who saw you as a danger to his vixen and wanted to see you off.
    • I’m not sure how many other people have experienced this; but both me and one of my friends have the same story. Around Crawthew Grove and Crystal Palace Road: I was followed by a large fox right on my heel. At first I didn’t notice because I had my headphones on, but then I noticed my shadow had an extra lump in it, funnily enough, it was a fox, very very close to my feet. Even if I sped up walking it just tried to get closer - it was quite frightening actually, it was quite clear that it wanted to nip me. I didn’t know what to do so, I started to reprimand the fox and walked slowly away from it, facing it - which it didn’t seem to like and backed off a bit. I then proceeded to speed-walk away.   Quite frankly, the whole situation was quite embarrassing and a little bit frightful as I’d never had a fox even come up to me. I’ve heard of particularly curious foxes that might come up to someone who beckons them, and maybe even bite that person, but I’ve never heard of a fox chasing someone. The amount of confidence that it had was incredible.    When it happened, I was on the way to see some friends, and once I had told one of them, she told me the same thing happened to her.  if anyone else knows anything about this bitey fox then let me know!
