Where today in Stroud Green can you go for a post-movies cocktail or drink and a bit of a knees up as you did with the good times in Sugar Lounge? All the pubs are full of exhausted indifferent bar staff and drunken oafs, there's nowhere to si…

Attn @Andy: Vanilla upgrade?
iPad = too big to go in your pocket. I may have to start carrying a man bag.

This is good news. My lucky charm necklace is broken. I'm not getting on Ryanair without it.

All right then, here's my review. No surprises here. The menu is absolutely standard Turkish fare, same as everywhere. Though when we went it turned out to be tasty, well cooked, well presented, so no complaints on that score. Unfortunatel…

Two years ago they did a lot of good work on draining and resurfacing the Walk. There was a big popular uprising then to prevent them tarmacing it over to create a 'cycle superhighway'. The Walk is for pedestrians AND children AND cyclists…

Refills! To @vetski and anyone else anxious for a refill. I have just a few litres of the golden liquid left. I'll be happy to do cut price refills (£4.50 the 250ml) for anyone who cares to bring their empties to SGOO headquarters in downtown…

Suffering, I fear, from a late-night excess of Tesco Express Extra-Strength Lager, our esteemed colleague Comrade K last night left a waspish post on another thread about the obnoxious middle classes and SGOO's 'Tuscan olive grove' et…

People are very helpful. I once borrowed a cassock from a vicar for a vicars and tarts party.

First night impressions (These Shining Lives): great venue, nice bar, good sized but intimate theatre, comfortable. Bar staff a bit nervous. Play very well acted by highly accomplished cast, not a weak link among them, but seemed a little two dime…

It might be about to happen, one of my truth-seeking journalistic websites has just been disabled by malicious hackers using a DDOS (distributed denial of service) attack. I'm expecting the worst. It's a cult and they don't lik…

Thanks. I've just resupplied Organic Fruit and Veg with the last 12 bottles. Refills available from me - please DM. I have a few litres left so if I get enough orders I will make a personal delivery round. And Twitter? Spammy? In what w…

Will be there for first night of the season. Will look into booking yours too if there are seats left! Can we have some Peter Nichols next season? :)

April 1st 2013 - Sad day in history
One thing we can surely do is monitor closely the behaviour of the local commissioning group and try to hold it to account where private gain is supplanting public good. Are we supinely going to lie down and let them take this away from us? From m…

Zipped in for beetroot ravioli last night. Packed and I met so many familiar locals it is apparently their second home. Glad it's doing so well.

Annie - at the top Crouch End Hill where the steps go down to Parkland Walk, near that school. It's where Crouch End Station was. I think that's where Beek means.
