We?ve got an albino squirrel visiting our garden near the junction of East Dulwich Grove and Dulwich Village. At first I thought it was the rarer black eyed leucistic variety but no, this one definitely has red eyes.


I remember seeing one in Ruskin Park on a few occasions more than 20 years ago but never before around here.

Where I worked in Love Walk Camberwell, our offices were built around a large garden and for several years we had a white squirrel living there. we named him Albie and colleagues regularly put out nuts etc for him as the other squirrels used to bully him. We hoped he/she would find a partner and were delighted when we saw him/her running and playing with another squirrel. He disappeared for some time, and we looked in the gardens of D' Crespigney Road in case he had moved 'house'.
I'm amazed, if he's a descendant of the white squirrel from Ruskin park. My 4 year old daughter (at the time) 25 yr ago loved to see the little chap and I'd give her monkey nuts to give him, she was always excited to find him. I'm sure I have photos some where.

Photos and report of the white squirrel of Dulwich in the newspapers today.


I remember seeing one regularly near the duck pond in Ruskin Park over 16 years ago. Was on the way to the one o'clock club (now Ruskin one o'clock club sadly closed) but he/she was a character then!

    • Wow, well served with local supermarkets then…  Agree with ATM.. good c position to been mugged or cloned card - prob why not been considered before. Wasn’t there one outside post office and still  is2where people were abit nervous of using? Hope I am wrong but won’t see me rushing to use it…sure lots of folk will benefit thou. Not a great fan or user of Iceland but when it closed years ago people complained..  Guess they only b look at bigger sites - can’t recall an express one but a pity to those who frequent the store. Strange that Tesco can use it as local but Iceland can’t - guess it is  power of large supermarkets. Personally would have  loved an Aldi or Lidl but  clearly site to small. Only grocery stores left to come are Waitrose, Aldi, Lidl… 
    • I'm paying £31 pcm for full fibre 300, whatever that is. I'm not sure it's a particularly good deal now, but I did a comparison at the time I went onto it, and it was then. I don't have a landline any more, and my mobile is with iD, who piggyback off 3. I don't usually have any problems,  except once a few years back when the whole 3  network (?) went  down for quite a long time.
    • I have Plusnet too.   I recently (August) had some problems with WiFi connection on different days but and the turning off and turning on didn’t work.  The WiFi didn’t work for quite a few hours - overnight in one case but eventually rectified itself.   Would be interested to know how much other people pay for Plusnet. I also have a landline with them as the mobile signal is bad inside house.  That is with EE and I want to change from them to another provider.
