Jenny's on Tollington Park. They are lovely there.

Hi Mirandola can I join your table on sat as well? it's the hush puppies that have pushed me over the edge! haven't been here yet

Is there an interent symbol for stunned silence?

Try the Islington Leaseholders Association for advice as they seem to have worked with people in similar situations. (www.ila.org.uk) In my experience the whole major works process with HFI is a nightmare and their invoices are riddled with inapprop…

Thanks for posting that and ditto on too close for comfort...as someone who lives around that side of the neighborhood I appreciate knowing this is going on, both to be aware for myself and to have an eye out for others in trouble.

I can't remember exactly how much a manicure was but I have been to Jenny's several times and been really happy with them. It's run by a mother and daughter who have lived in the area for years and they are lovely.

I'm not sure I'm doing my home side any favors by pitching in here but...you've forgotten cream cheese. And as a sidebar, I find Kraft's attempts to rebrand cream cheese as simply "Philadelphia" entertaing somehow.

SG Book Club +1? Love it Donna!

Thanks Angela! I'm planning to be there and hope to have finished the book although am only about half way at the moment. Mixed thoughts about this one!

Festive meal would be nice and I'm fine with the Dairy. At the last meeting someone was asking how much the xmas dinner runs there and according to the Old Dairy website it is £19.50 for 2 courses, £22.50 for 3.
-
Hi all - there were about 6 of us at the dairy last Thursday but given the absence of quite a few regulars we thought we'd put a book suggestion on here for discussion and leave final agreement to the broader group. We landed on Donna Tartt's The S…

Afraid not!

If all businesses had that experience you'd think Groupon would go out of business. I've used groupon before elsewhere and loved it but for some reason they seem to have fairly uninspired offers in London. It's definitely a case of buyer beware th…

I have vague hopes the new development will bring in a crowd that will help the local shops and over time improve what's on offer along that stretch of road. That plus the Hornsey Baths redo etc. It is a big ask tho.
-
On a different development note, has anyone else noticed how much nicer the Tollington Park/Hornsey Road junction looks since they tore down the plumbing store there? A nice view through to some great trees behind the construction site. Shame the …

Yes I own the flat via leasehold. The idea is to convert the loft and you can get permission to do this on a leasehold. I don't think buying the freehold is an option as the bottom flat is still a concil tenant and seems they don't sell the freeho…

I just don't get the cycle superhighways. Is there more to them than blue paint?
-
I enjoyed the first couple of meetings then had schedule conflicts for the last two. I hope to be there on the 15th. One thing I would say about the times I went is that I was suprised that everyone got up and left en masse immediately after the b…

i'm fine w/ your summary donnaW - 15th, old dairy, untouchable. Am easy as to time - maybe just split the difference and go with 7:30.
-
Oh sorry just saw sophie's post. i could equally do 15th feb.
-
OK shall we say Mon Feb 8? Might be best to meet in a pub first time unless someone happy to host various unknown peeps in their home. We could stick to something short as suggested and perhaps to make it easier chose from just the first half of t…

It would be great to have a local book club and Mondays work for me also. Should we pick a Monday in February (1? 8?) and a location to get together? Just having a discussion about how it would work might be enough for the first time, unless someo…

The same lady has been running things at los guadales every time we've been there over the last three years and she is always very friendly -- in fact I have always wanted to support the place because I figured she was the owner and she seems to mak…

Colette - link works! thanks for that I'll try this route next week

I've recently started cycling to the Trafalgar Square end of the Strand several days a week but am using major roads - hornsey rd then across to liverpool rd through angel and on down roseberry avenue to theobalds rd and kingsway. I love how cyclin…

Yoga Junction has (sadly) moved to Crouch End! I imagined this was to target a higher income market but apparently it was to save rent. That and because their spot by the tube was slated to be torn down and redeveloped if/when the tube work goes a…

the stone patches are annoying me as well. they seem be laying them in segments before covering them up with clay - which at least makes for easier footing. this work has been going on for ages. does anyone know what they are actually doing?
