Just after 11 this morning a teenage lad (about 15 or 16) knocked on my door saying he had lost his cat and asked me if I'd seen it at all. Being a cat lover I felt sorry for him and said I'd keep an eye out. He told me the cat was called Milo and showed me a picture. I took a photo of his flyer and have attached it here. I asked him if he'd reported it missing here on the EDF and whether it was microchipped. He said yes to both.

30 seconds after he'd left I had a 2nd glance at the picture which reports a missing cat called Daisy and then realised something felt wrong. I went outside in to my road and found him lurking behind a van with 2 friends. I approached him and asked him the name of the cat, he replied Milo. I then asked why the photo mentions a cat called Daisy. They looked very sheepish and he said he got his friend to make the flyer and he'd messed it up. I called them out as bulls***ers and said if I saw them near my property again I'd contact the police. I videoed this exchange and have the faces of all 3 lads. I will not be posting it on here for obvious reasons.

Needless to say there is no missing cat on here called Daisy or Milo and the number to contact on the flyer is not recognised. My guess is they are scoping houses to see if people are in or away on holiday. I also have a motorbike in my front garden which could be a factor.

Is this worth contacting the police about?

      Seeking parent-to-be for infant observation

      By Pugwash · Posted

      Good luck with this - there have been several requests over the years by students needing to do infant observations.  I was lucky when I did mine  - way back in 1994 at a local nursery. Have you tried contacting the NCT to see if there are any local groups who would be willing to participate? As a mother of 2 - found the observation very informative - mine was a 2 year old child as my course stated a child under 3. Got my highest grade for this project so was very happy.

      Happy birthday! I've just read a bunch of your reviews and really enjoyed it. You write Interestingly without being too ornate, and you manage to give a really good insight into the "vibe" of a place as well as the food. Totally agree with your review of Rocca - it's simple, great food in a friendly atmosphere at a completely reasonable price, esp considering the location.

      Seeking parent-to-be for infant observation

      Hello,  I am a 52-year old mother and an integrative counsellor who lives and works in West Dulwich, SE21. In mid January I am starting a new training in Parent Infant Psychotherapy (helping parents to bond with their babies), and a key component of the course is a 24-month infant observation.  I’m looking for someone who will be giving birth ideally in January or February and who would allow me to observe their baby for one hour a week until the baby’s second birthday. The baby can be awake or asleep, playing, feeding, eating or interacting with carer/s and family members - whatever they normally do at that time.  The purpose of the observation is to enable me to gain a thorough knowledge of very early infant development and to develop the capacity to maintain an observationally minded and non-judgemental attitude in my work as an infant-parent psychotherapist.  I will provide enhanced DBS clearance and I’m happy to answer any questions.  Please forward this email to anyone who might be interested, email me at [email protected] or call me on 07949716043. I would be extremely grateful for any leads. Many thanks,  Millie  Millie Burton, MBACP Integrative Counsellor [email protected] millieburton.com

      I keep my promises...had the Sweet & Sour Chicken.  It was great - the best sweet and sour dish I've ever had. The chicken itself was good and the sauce seemed home made with real vegetables and pineapple - it is NOT the red sugar sauce goo you get elsewhere.  The Korean fried chicken was very good but the sweet chili sauce was much more chili than sweet - just far too spicy for me. There is a honey something sauce that I will get next time. Egg fried veggie rice was good as a side.  We also ordered the chicken katsu curry which was polished off so quickly I didn't get to taste it. It looked very good tho. SD is not like Magic Wok used to be - cheap and filling but junk food. (Don't get me wrong - I went often to Magic Wok). SD's food is much higher quality, real ingredients, chunky portions, freshly prepared. I'll be back, for sure.
