Yes, I know it was a monkey in Hartlepool. For spying for the French during the Napoleonic Wars.


Then it was H'Angus the Monkey who became Mayor on the promise of free bananas to school children (which never happened btw).


But I though we could go one better with a rabbit. Spying for the North Koreans! Is there an East Dulwich version of the Stasi we could call on?

Bigger than a house Iv'e heard ... I saw it


Iv'e seen its ear poking up above the rooftops on North cross road , and a deafening chomping sound . perhaps thats why SMBS had sold out organic carrots

  • 2 weeks later...

I saw a giant rabbit

On the corner of Friern Road

I tried my best to grab it

But it hopped off as I strode

Towards the enormous fluffy thing

With arms outstreched I seethed

It hurdled the fence with an incredible spring

I followed it and heaved

My bulk into Maureen's garden

And ripped my shirt in the chase

I saw Maureen at the window and said "I beg your pardon

Is there a giant rabbit in this place?"

"How dare you trespass" Maureen said to me

"There's no giant rabbit here".

"Sorry" I said and went home for my tea

With hanky I wiped a tear

For I love that damned bunny

And I haven't caught it yet

I'd gladly relinquish all my money

For it to me my pet

Slightly off topic but I was recently on the 176 bus and someone stole my shoe (which I -- distracted by reading --

had let slip off my foot).

So I had to walk home from Lordship Lane with one shoe.


Who -- other than, obviously, a fox -- would want one shoe?

    • Actually, if it was factory fitted then it's location would be documented. It's the fact that it can be fitted in different places which means that it's difficult for thieves to locate. 
    • OK, good suggestion and it appears that the after-market price is about £260. But if that that was fitted ex-factory then the cost would be substantially less and certainly a small fraction of the price of a high-end car.

    • Another here singing Leon's praises. Fitted me in at the last minute on Monday 22 Dec and cheerfully did a fiddly and dusty ( under old floor with antique debris) job. Very reasonable charge.  Great guy .
