We live in Chesterfield Grove. Recently foxes have been coming in when the kitchen door is open. We have lost a deck shoe and some flip-flops this week.

They have, however, left an almost brand new shoe on our back step. Its made by Dune , is a black slip on and is probably a size 36 or 37.

If its yours let me know.

One of the nine(!) foxes in our garden ran into the dining room and stole one of my best shoes, leaving the other intact... I shouted at it as it jumped over the fence.... About three days later I was hanging out some washing and heard a snorting noise behind me - sitting about a foot away was said fox, looking very sheepish, with my chewed shoe at its feet.... I don't think it could have looked any more guilty and ashamed - it refrained from pooping on my lawn for about a week!

My dear seabag, what on earth were you and foxy "smoking in bed" this morning?

Our neighbours used to leave their trainers outside their front door after a run... I sort of warned them of what the local foxes would do do to them after the previous neighbours experience after doing the same. Sure as anything there was a lovely brown steaming gift in one of them in the morning ... not sure what they have against joggers

      The Mansion Tax

      By Dogkennelhillbilly · Posted

      This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!

      I checked - the Hanway Street place was Mandeer - it moved to New Oxford Street I think and was replaced by Hakkasan - very different prices.

      How late is your Christmas Card

      By Cancerian · Posted

      Suppose it depends on how many Christmas cards from family and friends you’re waiting to receive. It’s been the Christmas period so surely give the post delivery service some leeway. Like Sue I’ve not posted off so many this year but some I still write letters to  e.g my late mum’s cousins and other family  but hey ho that’s something I do and enjoy.  I used to hand deliver Christmas cards to a lot of neighbours on my street but gave up this year as realised that most of them I don’t see or speak to and can only count on a few to call a true friend or neighbour.
