When I was in the Harringay Arms a few weeks ago I was left under the tv whilst the drinks were being bought and everyoe was staring in my direction and they were a bit of an odd bunch and it was quite stressful. But I like it in there.
I heard a r…
You can do worse than the W5 from Haringey Sainsburys or from further north on Oakfield Road to Waterlow Park for lazy walks and coffee then on to Highgate Cemetery. Walk back through park up through Highgate Village, right into Southwood Lane all t…
I have failed at Wood Green, Barnet and Mill Hll. I surmised I should not drive but my instructor was a bit shit too. Different test centres have different pass rates you can get hold of and when I did mine Wood Green had lowest in country.
I just …
T-mobile crap in our Oakfield Rd basement flat. Orange slightly better but not much. [What to do?](http://www.cartoonstock.com/newscartoons/cartoonists/mbc/lowres/mbcn326l.jpg)
I have a stroudgreen.org CSE (I can do markdown after 3 failed attempts and then looking up how).
Can tosscat outline the O and A level pass requirements? Is that clever search thing O Level?
@injoke I remember him. He grew tolerant of me as I was prepared to wait to pay until he finished watching the 5.15 from Kempton or whatever race was on. It was weird in there. Lots of empty spaces on shelves.

Blimey, you have to be quick on here. Was about to edit that.
Yes, yes, signing loudly. Like they do in The Angel on City road, near my work, and the RNID.
@optimo75 Thanks for the tip. You paint a good picture. They were all signing loudly when I passed the other evening. The Specials I think. There's always a whiff of menace but I shouldn't knock it until I try it.
Oooh, I like the sound of the slow class. I'll fit right in. How early on a Saturday though? Perhaps they can have good old British Mitchell names: Grant, Phil and Billy/Peggy.
I once saw someone paying their paper bill in Meg's and it was almost £100 on his credit card. I was frightened and cancelled my weekend delivery soon after, terrified I might one day end up in lots of paper trouble. I'm generally happier consuming …
Have to say, I was in the Dairy a couple of weeks ago and the staff were really friendly. And responsive. Don't know if Damok did something to them but no complaints from me. I hadn't been in a while and I was really pleasantly surprised and would r…
