Sir: Thank you for your article about alien animals ("British creatures fight for survival as aliens stage invasion of the wild", 2 September). About two years ago my wife found a mitten crab in our swimming pool in suburban Twickenham. Since then I have been trying to convince unbelieving friends it really happened.
