Great news! (oops, no pun intended....) Planning a few treats for partner's birthday next week, and a stroll to one of our much missed favourite locals will go down nicely.

(and don't worry KK, we'll take our own glasses, assuming that's allowed)

most gracious, and much appreciated !

Anyone on foot passing the Great Exhibition (and interested in any kind of social distancing) be warned that Great Exhibition area pavements are effectively blocked by people drinking beer, including across the road and even round the corner on Landells !

The takeaway beer is not being taken away.

It looks like many are purchasing and then drinking nearby obviously with no beer garden, not being minded to take the beer home (probably because they're doing rounds), and staying nearby the pub it's making it difficult to stay away from other humans safely.

Basically walk in the road or don't social distance that's your choice right now !

    • 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!
    • Another recommendation for Andy. I needed an old kitchen removed as an emergency. Andy came over quickly and did a fantastic job. I have used Andy a few times. He is punctual, helpful and always does an  excellent job.
