RecorderSue Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 Hi EveryoneJust wanted to alert anyone who lost a few items from their washing line recently. Yesterday and today I found a total of 4 items. Anyone who lost 4 items please be prepared to describe what you lost! I have laundered everything.As I live in Oakhurst Grove they could have been brought by the foxes from Oakhurst Grove or Crystal Palace RD in my estimation. A young fox has been very active recently in my garden, including trying to break open an inspection cover to a drain, making so much noise it was unbelievable. i think this fox has now given up in that respect after threatening behaviour from my own gentle self!!

RecorderSue Posted April 5, 2020 Author Share Posted April 5, 2020 A friend of mine had her purse stolen from her bag and got it back from a neighbour. The fox had spent none of the money and everything was still in her purse!!

J27 Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 I wonder if they like wallets because they're a bit like shoes - likely to be leather, smell of people maybe?We lost a few shoes from outside the back door, years ago, before we realised the fox had taken them and stopped leaving them outside! Also lost our dog's toy monkey :-( Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/251805-foxes-dropped-clothes-in-my-garden/#findComment-1414107 Share on other sites More sharing options...
RecorderSue Posted April 6, 2020 Author Share Posted April 6, 2020 I found yet another clothes item when clearing some overgropwn winter jasmine. Its a grey top that a very young girl would wear. My neighbour told me the foxes left a large bone in their garden, and that they are getting in through a hole in the fence. In my garden there was a hole filled up under a tree that had been theri route in.They have dug another hole to get into my garden under same elderflower tree!!No news about who these items belong to so I am going to donate them to my neighbour who does have a little girl aged about 3 and I think these would fit her. The others would fit her mum. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/251805-foxes-dropped-clothes-in-my-garden/#findComment-1414164 Share on other sites More sharing options...
