As for jobs, still no luck. Why is it everyone else in this house gets jobs offered to them without having to look for them? I wish someone would offer ME a job without me having to look around. But, that's just wishful thinking.
I was just flicking through The Sun newspaper, and spotted that there was an update on the fox attack news that I reported in Fox News. Here's the update.
THE twins babies savaged by a fox may be scarred for life, their uncle revealed yesterday.
Dave Watson described the injuries to nine-month-old Lola and Isabella Koupparis as "pretty life-changing".
He added: "If a fox has mauled you in the arm and face, they are going to be.
"They are going through surgery at the moment as we understand it. They are improving. Lola is a lot better."
The sisters were attacked as they slept in their cots by a fox that had crept in through open patio doors of their East London home.
Their parents Nick and Pauline were at their bedsides yesterday at separate hospitals in the capital.
Mr Watson - who visited their £850,000 home at Victoria Park in Hackney to pick up a children's chair - said "They are bearing up under the circumstances."
He added: "The staff have been brilliant and there's been an improvement this morning."
Barbecue
He spoke as the first picture of the injured twins emerged.
The recent snap shows them enjoying a sunny day in what is believed to be their back garden.
Pauline, 41, and Nick, 40, had held a barbecue on the fateful day before tucking the kids into bed.
They left the patio doors open while they watched Saturday's final of TV's Britain's Got Talent.
The fox struck around 10pm and went upstairs to the children's bedroom. Their four-year-old Max was asleep in another room and was unharmed.
The Sun told yesterday how Paula said their terrible injuries has left one side of Lola's face looking "like a horror movie".
Lola is being treated at the Royal London Hospital in Whitechapel, East London.
Her sister Isabella is said to be in a worse condition after the fox savaged her arm, which was sticking though the bars of her cot.
She was taken to the specialist Great Ormond Street Hospital in central London.
A spokeswoman for the hospital said: "Isabella Koupparis continues to receive the highest possible levels of care from medical staff."
The twins' father Nick is a financial boss at an independent film company. Mum Pauline is a former merchandising head for BHS.
Pest control experts set a baited trap in their garden following the horror. A fox was caught and shot dead. But Hackney Council could not confirm it was the same animal that carried out the attack.
Last night ANOTHER fox was photographed at the front of the family's home.
Menace
Hours earlier, Mayor of London Boris Johnson condemned urban foxes as a menace.
He added: "People like to think foxes are a wonderful addition to the flora and fauna of London but they are undoubtedly a pest.
"They are a menace in their scavenging for rubbish and as you saw in the last couple of days they can, in very rare circumstances, present a threat to human beings as well.
"Therefore it's right that boroughs should focus on their duties for pest control."
Wildlife experts urged a cull on urban foxes.
Peter Crowden, chairman of the National Pest Technicians Association said: "The situation is out of control and we could see more attacks on domestic pets and even babies. No one is controlling them in towns and cities."
But a spokeswoman for the RSPCA yesterday said: "There is no evidence that there are more foxes in towns and cities. It's been the same levels for 30 years.
"It's just that humans are getting more agitated about them." Neighbours of the Koupparis family said they had becoming increasingly worried about the growing numbers of foxes in the area.
Grandmother Fatma Kabay, 52, said: "Foxes are a big problem around here and terrorise our streets. There's loads of them everywhere, especially at night - and they're not scared of humans.
"I have grandchildren and I don't want them playing outside in case they get attacked by a fox.
"The council should be something about it because they are wild animals and very dangerous.
"Maybe this tragedy will give them the push they need." The majority of Britons believe there is NO NEED to do more to control urban fox populations, a YouGov poll for The Sun discovered.
Only 35 per cent of those surveyed said more should be done to control foxes.
But 42 per cent said they had become more concerned after reading about the attack on the twins. That figure rose to half among people in London.
From the looks of this news report, I guess they may be killing a lot of foxes. Ironic that they're trapping these creatures in "humane traps", and then shooting them. Honestly, why bother with the traps if you're going to shoot them? Just go out at night and shoot them. No point in wasting money on traps, right?
Now, I'm not one for animal cruelty at all. I like foxes. Of course, I don't live in London, so I done see the major problem people there have with them, but is the only solution to kill them? It's sounding like that from the way they're talking about it. They're not scared of humans, so the solution is just to shoot them to put the fear of humans into them again? Nice. Why don't you just do that in Cornwall with seagulls too?! They attack people for no real reason, other than they nest on someone's roof and if you get close to that house, they'll attack. They'll even snatch food out of your hand, and some skin with it if they have to.
I honestly hate seagulls, but you're not allowed to harm them, even if they attack. I'm so confused by people. A rare fox attack means death to all foxes, yet a regular seagull attack means "We must protect them." Why? Someone PLEASE explain to be why one animal attacking is different to another?
Well, I guess soon the fox population is London is going to majorly decrease.
