I was in John Lewis a while back, I had been dragged around Oxford street with a hangover all morning and the heating had turned the atmosphere in there Saharan. Upon the brink of death I dragged myself up to the canteen counter, all cracked lips and croaky voice, and rasped, ?May I please have a bottle of water??


?Certainly sir.? Said the young lady as she shooed away a circling vulture, ?That will be ?2.50 please.?

is it just me - but when you've paid ?4.30 for popcorn, I'm actually surprised that the bottle of water wasn't more expensive? about what, 200% mark up on the water, at least 1000% on the popcorn surely...

    • 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.   
    • 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.  
    • Driving down Lordship lane around 2.45pm today saw a v sick looking fox walking in and out of the crowd.
