I was in Lithuania not so long ago where they have a GENUINE car pooling service whereby you can pick them up and drop them off as you wish. It is an affordable, useful service. Here Zip Car and the like just try to rip you off, it is so frustrati…

I was running in the park that night, genuinely frightening, its obviously the massive bunch that sit dealing by the entrance. https://mobile.twitter.com/i/web/status/1173920814607097856

Gym box gyms are actually really good, despite the colour schemes resembling the old Rhubarb and Custard cartoons. Lord knows how that delay would work with a mortgage offer.

Is there going to be a Gym Box?

Mulalley / Kier = thieves. And there is poshos at the council, I deal with them, they just are not at the point of contact.

@LukeG yeah it definitely isn't 'Joe's mate', it's worse than that, it's 'Tarquin's mate' and he's employing Joe on a zero hours contract.

Although (predictably) I quite liked Kings Cross as it was, much like Tottenham and Hackney.

It's also mental that if you refuse to pay they can snatch the lease back. I had involvement with the new Battersea Power Station Estate the other day, the leaseholders there are getting absolutely hammered for legal fees. The fees relate to the …

You have the service charges and then "essential maintenance" on top, as well as putting right all the shoddy work from the build, all done at top dollar rates and totally unregulated. I have heard of some flats being impossible to sell because th…

The trouble is that the leaseholders will be paying a king's ransom for the upkeep, it seems to be the new scam all over the UK.

TfL and Telford Homes, the developer behind the luxury City North project, say they hope to open the new step-free Goodwin Street and Wells Terrace entrance on December 17. Big Christmas bonus for someone if that actually completes on time.

OK there is a cider maker the on Landseer Road as well, it's a lovely drop too.

Where is the distillery?

Now if they would just turn the Coffee Fruit sun trap into beer and spritz bar i would be truly happy.

I like to have a few £2.50 Carlsberg beers in the Enkel on Seven Sisters and then walk 100 yards to the Swimmers for a few £5 Paulaner Hefe-Weizen beers. I like the people and the staff at both pubs despite the obvious differences and it very much…

When I was young you were much more likely to get mugged in zones 1 or 2 then zones 4 or 5, this has now totally reversed. Equally it was not unusual to hang around with my mates who were from places like Aldgate, Fitzrovia, and Clerkenwell yet now…

Do people actually feel unsafe though?

You have much more chance of someone actually coming to your rescue if something did occur round here then in somewhere like Chelsea in my opinion. If you have never been mugged by middle-class 40 somethings can you tell me the name of your bank pl…

I use Sew in Crouch End as well, the repairs are great but do sometimes cost more then the garment being repaired. The guy on Hornsey Road near Bavaria Road replaced a zip for me once which broke in milliseconds, no idea if he was called Steve or n…

I think the independent shops come and go all the time, they used to be flogging women's clothes but now all seem to sell random homeware. Actually they seem to sell not a lot to me but I thought people did it for tax purposes. Someone on here sa…

But where would the lease-car drug dealers launder the readies if you shut the car washes down?

We finally have trains now but what about the elephants?

I had a Hana Maria maybe 10 years ago (I think they sold it by the metre?) and it wasn't great, not been back since to be fair. The guy in Diavolo told me he is moving for more space as opposed to location. That waitress is friendly alright, she r…

Porchetta's old premises is probably 5 times as big as the current premises.

Yeah, I'm not sure it's a wise move personally, unless he's planning on selling take away pizza. I noticed that every restaurant was rammed tonight on my way home, Baccus was empty though which seemed a shame, maybe it's too hot for that type of p…

Is the Goods Office still considered new? Anyway it's in Time Out today, pretty middling review, listed at £85 for a meal for 2.

You can still get a nice crab meat bagel at Columbia Road though.

I have literally never had a bad meal in Pizzeria Pappagone and I've been there at lunch time, midnight, hammered, down, with family, for cocktails etc. over the years. I don't know how they run it so well but it seems busier then ever to me. I'v…
