FAD ) For Avoidance of Doubt:
"the fearsome Brixton Crack Squirrel, which feeds entirely on discarded rocks of crack cocaine and is generally rather bolshy for such a small creature. They used to hang out in the little park in front of the Ritzy Cinema, twitching spastically, dancing to music only they could hear and generally creating a malevolent ambience."

...but unfortunately they've been priced out of the area, pushed out by wealthier foodie squirrels

Lets hope Mr Policeman Badger is on the case.
I can't imagine sensible Tufty taking crack though.
Willy Weasel yes, that's probably why he got run over all the time because he was shit faced from his pick-up from the dodgy ice cream van.

Willy weasel looks pretty cool in his Breton fisherman's top. Perhaps he was big on French new wave cinema.

Great site that with lots useful government info about keeping you cutlery clean in the event of a nuclear holocaust.

Ha ha ha the squirrel couldn't have picked a better victim!

Attacked by a nut-hoarding, crack-addicted, 8 inch tall killer for crimes to music

You're channelling a Boris joke at Tory conference

The Mayor said he had "every sympathy" with Niall Horan, who underwent knee surgery after being attacked in Battersea Park, but added: "In London, not only do we have such beautiful greenspace, but such healthy, well fed dynamic and musically discerning squirrels."

Not when an enormous, morbidly obese squirrel, with its system weakened from years of sustained crack abuse croaks and falls straight out of its tree on to some poor passerby!

That picture actually looks close to life size.

Those quick and dirty "Friday afternoon before the Bank Holiday after session in the pub" Photoshop pics have got the folk in Tunnocks' PR team more coverage than any of their other work so far this year!

wow this took me back I actually wrote an eight page booklet of harm reduction advice for squirrels based on this story and the fun on Urban, I Squirrels

I haven't read through this thread but I have heard of it and often, while walking through Ruskin Park, watching the squirrels licking the lids of the discarded coffee cups from Costa in the hospital, I worry that they are addicted to caffeine.

from another thread

I understand that with the gentrification of Brixton, the squirrels are turning away from crack and doing Starbucks instead

This squirrel got pissed on Caffreys at a private members club in Worcestershire.

RT this morning has been railing against the wasteful US drugs industry spending $2 million dollars testing crack addiction vs ecstasy addiction in "baby rats". They are clearly going to be on the case.

Heard crack squirrels mentioned at a meeting last week - I work for a North London Council and a senior director mentioned them at a big meeting. Apparently a caretaker told her about an incident
