There are six in my garden, three generations, I have watched them grow from tiny cubs to grown adults. They wait in a line every morning to be fed and never dig up the lawn or crap anywhere other than in flower beds.... They never show any aggression to my cat or me - I have more trouble from the industrial-sized squirrels which pee and crap all over my washing and throw gravel at me when I shout at them....

Remembered seeing an old man on the tube with an Alsatian and fox on leads (approx 15 years ago ) he said he hoped to show people

how pleasant foxes could be and how similar to dogs (maybe domestication will happen more,logical progress or bad idea ?)Did anyone else meet him ?

That's very funny you should say that.

Yes.. Once or twice when I was early he followed me all the way to the far end of Ulverscroft.

Walking by my side.

    • This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!
    • I checked - the Hanway Street place was Mandeer - it moved to New Oxford Street I think and was replaced by Hakkasan - very different prices. 
    • Suppose it depends on how many Christmas cards from family and friends you’re waiting to receive. It’s been the Christmas period so surely give the post delivery service some leeway. Like Sue I’ve not posted off so many this year but some I still write letters to  e.g my late mum’s cousins and other family  but hey ho that’s something I do and enjoy.  I used to hand deliver Christmas cards to a lot of neighbours on my street but gave up this year as realised that most of them I don’t see or speak to and can only count on a few to call a true friend or neighbour.
