Yup - definitely cats. A pump action water pistol every time we saw one did the job for a while - but we've clearly let our guard slip. Currently our tiny garden is being protected by chilli flakes, coffe grounds and a liberal sprinkling of ant cat stink powder. Effective but horrid.


Really do fancy one of the motion detected sprinklers....

Brought some poo into the house today on my shoes, so not happy. Thought I'd start a thread, but assumed that this would be something that had been aired before. Well knock me down with a feather, what perfect timing!


We use a cat scarer with a laser light and a wailing sound. I then notice a fox in a neighbour's garden who shows a slight bit of interest. Cat's repsond quite slowly but eventually walk away. Obvious problem is that you have to be there. I fancied an air rifle, which I would use against the rats with long furry tails, but they cost quite a lot, and I'd probably get prosecuted for animal cruelty.


We've thought about lion poo for some time, particularly knowing people from ZSL. But hey presto, search it on Google, and plenty of hits, ignore Amazon coz they are scumbags (IMO) and try somewhere like http://www.primrose.co.uk/silent-roar-cat-repellent-05kg-p-791.html?cPath=24_312&source=googleads&gclid=CPPGyoy_irkCFeXMtAodhBEAlA

    • Unfortunately there are two ways of examining this, if we even had the figures. The first is simply to look at the revenues paid to the Council and see if the costs (in terms of setting it up and recovery from it, including administrative cost) are less than the revenues. This would be quite simple to do assuming we could agree the proper allocation of those costs. But additionally we have the amenity cost to those Southwark residents either (a) losing amenity value through e.g. disruption, and secondly losing amenity value by being excluded from parts of a public park for an extended period in summer. That is not a fiscal cost to the council and clearly they don't give a damn, but that would be the only way of judging whether this event was of overall net benefit to Southwark residents, the only people who the council should be 'working' for. Don't hold your breaths.

    • I need a trundle bed! 2 single beds that convert into one double bed. Preferably wooden. If you have one that you no longer use/would like to sell, please get in touch via PM.  Thank you 
    • Dulwich College had the "luck" of those allegations landing right in the middle of COVID when the media and everyone else was a bit distracted. And then to make double sure the discontent was suppressed, it threatened kids who wanted to demonstrate with police action. The kids at the time said: "Dulwich College has for years totally ignored, dismissed and condoned by turning a blind eye, this predatory behaviour by students... A protest was students’ only way to pressure the headmaster to actually tackle the sexual violence at his school.” The march by pupils of several schools was advertised on social media as “a demonstration against the predatory culture of Dulwich College and the school management [which] condones it". https://www.theguardian.com/education/2021/mar/26/dulwich-college-head-warns-pupils-over-culture-protest
