My fears about foxes attacking my cats were allayed somewhat by an incident a couple of weeks ago. I have 2 cats,one of which is semi feral and likes to be out at night, the other one preferring the comforts of home. One evening ,about 11.30, I returned home after a night out to be greeted by the two said cats who had been happy to be out together as it was a warm night. Forgot to mention that I dont have a cat flap and have to look through my glass front door to see if either cat wants entry!!! Bit tiresome but you soon get used to it!! Anyway back to the story!! I decided that I would leave the 2 cats outside a while longer while I got their late night food ready. Whilst dishing up the Felix I heard 'noises' outside. On looking through the frosted glass door I could see what looked like a coat draped along my doorstep. It then dawned on me that it was a fox!!! I kicked the inside of the door, but nothing happened.So I kicked it again!! Still nothing. So I bit the bullet and opened the front door The fox shot out of the small garden and left the 2 cats sitting outside the door looking somewhat bemused. I can only assume that they had cornered the fox without really meaning to!!! Whatever,I can rest easier now as the fox seemed more scared of the cats than I would have thought. Also I have seen my little home loving cat chasing the foxes away!! May they all live happily together.

      I’ve tried to find details of surgeries being held before but not found any. The section of the Southwark website that details councillors’ surgeries says that: Your locally elected Councillors will be holding a roving surgery programme in the Dulwich Hill area to enable residents to raise any local issues. Residents will be notified by letter in advance of the date, time and specific streets/roads where the surgery will take place.  Surgeries are not held in August, on Bank Holidays, Easter or in Christmas Week.  Dulwich Hill Ward Councillors I’ve never seen any notification of surgeries being held, including on the DH councillors’ social media accounts. I don’t know if any other residents of Dulwich Hill have? Neighbouring wards all seem to have times and places posted for surgeries.

      Is Rachel Reeves becoming the new Liz Truss?

      I wouldn't feel too bad about that. It's one of the few degree areas that you can do a BA or a BSc in, so it's a fairly wide-ranging and complex subject. Certainly Truss, Kwasi and Reeves seem to struggle with it.

      I can't access the article - what's the gist?  I took the markets getting jittery when she was crying at PMQs to be a sign that they trusted her. But maybe it was because they were simply worried about any form of instability.  The NIC hikes have stymied the economy, which we could all see a mile off. Will a wealth tax improve things? Does anyone here think the trickle down has any impact and that chasing out the super rich will help things? Or are we just seeing off the biggest contributors to the economy? And has the Kwasi approach ever worked anywhere else?  Economics is not my strong point at all, I'd love to know others' opinions, but it seems to be she has few options, especially as the party is so divided.

      does either of them have a surgery? probably not over summer, but I thought they had to give the opportunity for their constituents to meet them.
