well not the allotmemts as such (the ones the other side of the South Circular from the Village up the hill that is) ....... rather leaving your stuff unattended on them. my friend left a few things in a bag by the side of her allotment while working on it today (err that is technically yesterday now) and the bag was nicked. This included her car keys and loh and behold she had to walk home on account of the tea leaves helping themselves to her car. Apparently it happened to someone else there late last week.

I had this happen on my allotment. Gun site on Grange Lane, but two years ago. A bunch of kids hahging around, so I thought I would be friendly instead of being anti young people. They distracted me, took my bag and raided my car, which I left unlocked. I knew where they went to school as they told me!. So reported it there. If your plot is on Grange Lane like mine, take care at lunch times

Do these posters annoy anyone else?


I don't like to be told to hide my mobile phone (or Ipod if I had one). They are portable items of equipment meant to be used in public spaces. The posters imply that by using a mobile phone in public I am somehow responsible encouraging crime and criminals. This seems, as my Devon neighbours used to say, "Arsy versy".

      Bitey Fox.

      By Rockets · Posted

      Some foxes are very tame. The foxes that live near the electricity sub-station thing on the corner of Calton and Woodwarde will happily walk up to you/passed you. They are some of the best looking foxes around so clearly being well-fed - glorious coats and bushy tails but interested in humans and keen to engage/be fed rather than being scared.

      Let’s not all get scared of the foxes now. Most likely explanation is protecting its den or association with food. We have foxes, and cats and they are no bother to each other. The fox will leave when the cats are out.

      Bitey Fox.

      I remember seeing something a few years ago on TV about a fox that was actually biting through people's shopping / takeaway food bags.  It was situated in an alleyway.  Not in London.  Very interesting in how the  urban foxes brain development has  been affected by their surroundings.   Not an exact quote from Darwin.  It's the adaptable that survive / not the strongest or the most intelligent.   I would be worried if a fox came close me.   Because they might be after my fur babies and they carry a lot of nasties.   Although they look beautiful from a distance or on a 🎄 card.
