I've contacted someone at the wildlife centre for further info, which I will share.


Symbiotic relationship sounds good to me!

This is a bit disgusting so don't read on if you don't want to!


Has anyone else found very very small curly poos? I climbed down into our front garden today to do a bit of a clean up and near the exit of a drain pipe from the roof was a huge pile of hundreds of tiny curled brown poos. They look about the right size to have come from rats but they are curled so I have no idea what they can be from. Any ideas? Please help, it's grossing me out.

I saw it too at about 3 or so crossing the path coming away from sainsburys. I know there are rats everywhere in London but they still scare me to death. I think I might email sainsburys and ask them to investigate under their bushes.

On a nicer note, whilst strolling up by Sydenham Hill Station yesterday I spotted a peacock. It was just wandering around the street and then into someone's front garden. Having watched/followed it for some minutes it did the a most un-peacock like thing and flew onto the roof. Quite impressive, mind you. I have pictures on my phone I shall attempt to upload later in the day.

The rain finally falls to give the garden a good soaking and not before time.


It will help all the fruits and veg to grow and swell.


I traded some of my organic runner beans which I had a glut of for scrambled eggs at Homemade yesterday,


which was very convenient and delicious.

That'll be one of the peacocks that escaped from Tracy Thier's place on Sydenham Hill.

    • We have had Tony and team do a number of repairs and decorative work over the past year in our Victorian terrace in Peckham. Most recently, they painted the majority of our house while we were on holiday, where they spent 12 hour days over two weeks working non stop to complete plastering, walls & ceilings, and woodwork paint on custom joinery. Tony communicated throughout but kept the end result a surprise. We returned to the most beautiful house decor, with the whole place spotless too. I would have no hesitation in recommending TDR, the work is always to an extremely high standard, well priced and I always trust Tony and his work. We will use TDR again for further work in our house. 
    • It's quite normal with chain shops that have a large real estate portfolio who are in the proverbial. When the writing is on the wall they know exactly how much they can afford to pay to keep a site open and the landlord then has a choice:  accept the lower rent or find a new tenant. Finding a new tenant sometimes means not getting any rent from an insolvent company, paying to clear their stuff out and giving the new tenant a rent free period to fit out their shop and establish themselves. It can be expensive for the landlord to refuse a rent reduction. I think this landlord has probably landed on their feet here though, getting Tesco interested. 
    • When I used to go to the one in Woodwarde road I found them expensive but not exceptional- They kept suggesting I have an acid treatment on my toenails which have a tendancy to become ingrown-I think it was many hundreds of pounds (about £400 5 or so years ago) when I found my current Podiatrist (who teaches at The Royal college of Podiatrists) he told me that A: that treatment was'nt foolproof and the nail could grow back and B: that he really did'nt reccomend it in my case. I also did'nt like how the charges at Woodwarde rd just kept getting higher and varied depending on whom was treating me.
