I wasn't suggesting they should be used as a fox deterrent service! I thought I had explained that in my post. I posted information about them and what they do because you had posted about The Fox Project!

No idea to both! Though I seem to be being allowed to react again now 👍 I'm working on it 😂 It distracts me from the many many more important things I have to do 🤣

No, because I've had no reason to use any kind of statistical analysis for about fifty years, and I've forgotten most of what I ever knew about it. But are you suggesting that they have somehow used the wrong methodology (if that's the right word)? That would have been picked up by someone with the relevant knowledge when the findings were published, surely. I think straws are being clutched at now.

It's just describing the method of statistical analysis used, isn't it?

Foxangels Fox Angels will help if you find an injured fox or need help to remove a fox from your house. https://www.foxangelsfoundation.org/ They have locally (to ED) based volunteers and in my experience are very quick to respond if you message them via their Facebook page. I sadly had a dying fox in my garden one year, and no other organisation I tried could help. Fox Angels took him to a vet (sadly he couldn't be saved)

I sincerely hope that isn't true 🤣

I just tried to "like" a post and I got a message saying I could not add any more reactions today. Is this a new rule, or have I just been more restrained in the past?! No idea why that last bit is underlined . ..

I'm waiting with bated breath here too.

Oh. I see Neil Coyle was involved. These concerns about the election were raised a bit late in the day, weren't they? I hope somebody didn't wait until James McCash had resigned from his primary school teaching job before raising them, because on the face of it that would seem really vindictive. 🙄

That doesn't sound very hygienic. I would like to start swimming there again, but that has put me off. Why would anybody be taking tissues into the water? Who is responsible for the quality of the water? Surely there must be some sort of public hygiene regulations relating to this?

Fair enough. I misunderstood your post.

Thank you for this. I've got three large holes dug by foxes in a very small garden! I haven't seen any actual foxes or any other sign of them. I think it's possible they may have been after ground nesting bees, as one of the holes is in a place I had white tailed bees nesting in the past. I've ordered some Scoot (found it cheapest on eBay with free delivery). It would probably drive everyone else away as well, though - I like to sit in my garden!

I am bowing out of having anything to do with the community notice board issue now. I just went back to the beginning of the thread to read it through again, because I couldn't remember how the whole discussion started. I then saw that the OP appears to have recently been right through the thread they started in January and added various emojis to posts, including a quite inappropriate laughing emoji on a post concerning their own editing and/or deletion of at least one very nasty post about at least one other forum member. It seems a bit ironic that that should be on a forum thread they started about an issue supposedly to benefit the community. And they have also put "confused" emojis on some of my posts which seem perfectly clear to me. I imagine that when they read this they will go back and remove the emojis. Hopefully they now have enough information from Pugwash about the keys and the location of unlocked noticeboards to finish their original excellent quest, which apparently started well over a year ago when they began emailing councillors, because I no longer have any inclination to spend more time on it.

What would be helpful, Jazzer, do you think?

Not as exciting as the death cap mushroom case 🤣
