Would be inclined to suggest the latter... music and art make us human. Money and finance are just things we use... tokens and tools..

I find that really annoying, Salsa. I chase them off by spraying them with water from am old washing-up liquid bottle. Slightly concerned what the neighbours may think though as my range is about one and a half gardens.

Squirrels are one of the rare group of 'fermenters' regarding food


It's why the bury nuts/acorns

The only likely environment for a confrontation would be shallow African rivers. So we're probably talking about a bull shark. The bull shark is a fierce creature, can grow over 3m long, regularly dines on other sharks, and has been known to attack hippos. The lion's only hope would be to drag the shark onto the shore, which is a long shot. I'm going for the shark.

    • a (clean) nappy/pamper, it was like it had snowed in the garden.  The absorbent stuff inside spread everywhere.  Can I have my gardening gloves back please.
    • They've left all kinds of things in my garden including gardening gloves and shoes, not to mention scavenged food and packaging. Once they left an unopened vacuum pack of smoked trout, the next day some pita bread. All a bit biblical.
    • From memory foxes only became a regular sight in the 90s, the attached article says they first appeared in the 30s becoming far more common in the 80s.  Apparently, whilst we think that urban foxes live longer than rural due to their 'easy' life few will make it over the age of two.  In towns they are far more crowded than their natural habitat where they are more territorial. I've never seen foxes and cats fighting but once saw two cats squaring up to each other and a watching fox went up and butted its head against one of the cats.  There's a video on youtube of a cat and fox facing off when the cat is eating outside, but it wont let me embed on this post.  Get too close and I'll scratch you. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2022/oct/15/urban-foxes-are-they-fantastic-or-a-growing-menace My main issue is leaving things out like gardening gloves and they go or are shredded.  One stole a bag of bird food in front of me, took it next door, shredded the bag and then left it.  
    • I was trying to remember when Franklins moved to Lordship Lane from Walworth Road where it was combined with an antique/bric a brac shop. Mid 1990s, first wave ED gentrification?
