Thanks, I'll take a look - windows and masonry are in good condition just need painting.

I share all these concerns about this proposal and would add that the rear of Tesco's is a huge car park at present, presumably they deliver and unload on SGR if this build goes ahead? so a bus stop or Zebra crossing-or both - may have to be moved. …

@G-Joe; err no they're in H'gey - and we complained to them again after he got our address and phone number. Needless to say we didn't meet up but he did have the brass neck to say he got our details from H'gey!

The place opposite Max's is owned by a local 'character' (nuisance) who lives on Victoria Terrace, all his properties are recognisable for their brightly coloured paint jobs. Not sure if he lives in UK all the time as I heard he had bought a place s…

I also recommend Findon Building Co. - I found them on Mybuilder too - they did our front garden wall on SHR and repointed rear of 3-storey house. Nice guys quick, honest and reasonably priced.

That's the one Mayor of Baltimore or somesuch

@miss annie and @verga<div> There's no collaboration involved it's straight forward corporateering. Picturehouse are in fact owned by Cineworld who bought a majority stake in PH to add another brand - i.e Cineworld are a pile 'em high, el…

Yes I like Exotic too , never had a problem in years & years. Idris Elba ate their once by the way withthe Irish actor boy that lived on Japan Crescent.

@Krappyrubsnif I know the council turns a blind eye when it's a Housing Association property. We enquired about a neighbours sudden installation of PVC windows citing the Conservation area etc.and the letter we got back was the opposite of…

The Glamour Cave blog have mangled the facts and missed the entire Dylan / Crouch end anecdote! This dates from 1987-'89 ish when Eurythmics were in their pomp and Dave Stewart had branched out as producer of albums for Bob Dylan, Mick Jagger and ot…

@ Ali Marlers Bar , Tim Martin was one of the partners of Marlers, I used it a bit and it was not bad, I recall a lunchtime drink watching George Michael and Andrew Ridgeley 'helping' Pepsi, the backing singer in Wham, move from her flat above the…

The money from events in the Park used to fund kids summer holiday activities - day camps for a mixture of sport etc. at FP athletic track and at New River etc. A councillor that lived in Scarborough Rd sorted it - also residents of Vic. Terrace, …

It's not a Curzon opening in CE - the old Music Palace is being re-furbed to provide theatre, live music and films and have arranged for Curzon films to be shown online. No tikka massala in plan but you carrot cake ,panini and wraps are a safe bet…

No problem with V4M or the set up outside the PO - I like an array of mops, buckets and rolls of table cloth on the pavement. The spread outside Liline's is a a mess though. Too small for Farmers Markets or Craft Stalls- and they're just sub-br…

I won't make it tonight as work till 8.30 Re. 'blank canvas for street art' this would be a big mistake. It's an old and somewhat lame idea and usually attracts more graffiti - always looks naff too. I'd propose leveling the entire block where Si…

the bridge treatment at bottom of Camden Rd . is the example to follow.

Anyone of a mind to pay for schooling would probably have splashed out on a country pile by the time their kids are school age or 7-ish latest. Happened a lot a Stroud Green School an exodus to the shires with a pied-a-terre on in SG to hang the re…

Oh dear, Creeping gentrification more than a boost to the area I think - rather a decent baker than a chain outlet. I think Waitrose only go where M&S go.
-
@Stella It was a Falcon I think - about '74ish with Reynolds 531 tubing ? I stripped all the logos when it was new and it went from metallic green & black to electric blue, then purple, then white - had lots of saddles black,white,red…

@Yagamuffin I think its UTP is the run from Green Lanes to Holloway Road without Seven Sisters FP. Maintaining 20mph in 4th is really difficult - in a straight line uninterrupted by other traffic, corners or speedbumps it is just possibl…
-
@Stella - you would have needed to be around in 1985 to benefit from that 'give away' it was actually my bike from school days and I left home with it - spent a lot on maintaining it and replacing forks,handlebars, gear and at least four re-sprays. …
-
All for safer, better driving and traffic managment but does any consultation mention that emmissions increase when a car is driven in lower gears to maintain 20mph? Where are the stats on air quality in relation to that. The thing is Haringey is su…

Would have been great- no Arsenal shop makes it a superior design over todays model which looks like something Swindon or Milton Keynes rejected in the 70's
-
Never felt safe cycling in London even less so now there's so many cyclists jockeying for position. Do they realise how little rubber actually connects them to the road, about a finger's width for each wheel is what they're depending on to maintain …

It looks like I'll be in the US that night - California - as I was in 2008 when OB won which was truly memorable event - dinner at a friend's home everyone crying 'We got our country back' and I remember Eddie Izzard's brilliant soundbite on the TV …

It was owned by an architecht practice that specialise in developing small unusual buildings in unusual places [ sort of Triomphe Ergonomique if you will ] they also owned the shop. [ my friend was their FD but made redundant recently ]They had a …

@ Arkady - sorry if you were confused or I was less than clear. There is of course no heart of the periphery so to be led there would be to go nowhere. Pursuing compromise just to have compromise can hollow out the conclusion - nobody gets what they…
-
As I say the govt. is hobbled by a very low grade electorate - poor them. Arkady is it really maturity that enables a voter to curtail their expectations of a govt. to deliver just a policy or two? Sounds more like wearied resignation and a bar se…

Arkday it's ok I knew what you meant, I got it. So you think the Libs will grow and remain a main party or other parties could appear on a scale similar to them? Perhaps the Cons. and Lab reduce down to Lib level? No problem with compromise, …

@Arkady Thanks for clarifying that I was about to ask matron which country I live in. So is this is as good as it gets then? Two non-mandates combined do not make a mandate, both parties in this govt. play fast and loose with their manifes…
