Another Fox


More than a month ago I wrote about some fox stencils that cropped up in Northwest London.

Well, just last week someone removed a plywood wall that concealed a vacant storefront on Portobello Road, and what should be behind it -- another fox! Obviously not the same variety as the stencils, but we like him just the same.

Unfortunately that vacant shop is now under renovation, so who knows how much longer this fox will be hanging around!

Foxes loom large in the British imagination. We have them here, but they aren't as prominent.

I saw one once rooting through trash behind my friend's apartment in north London. It was beautiful and frightening, skinny, rasty looking, like a homeless person.

They are powerful beasts!
