  • I read* that the WLM used to be a pub favoured by occultists before it became a Wetherspoons. *annoyingly I can't locate the book, it's here somewhere, shoved in the wrong place...
  • The RSPCA charity shop, top of Blackstock Road has a Yamaha DJX with stand for £60 ...
  • Got to include the moulded brickwork lettering of 'Stroud Green Road'. Bottom of Crouch Hill, opposite the sgrafitto panels of the Old Dairy. Sunlight catches them first thing in the morning.
  • I'm not sure how relevant that thread will be, as in my experience a nursery can change in a surprisingly short space of time, and significantly so. Nick_m I would recommend you phone the nurseries and go and have a look for yourself. Have you c…
  • They're having a refit.
  • I hope the sale was a great success and you raised lots of money... just thought I'd ask to see if you might take the signs down from the neighbourhood now? I don't think the blustery wind and rain can take care of the disposal of a laminated sign.
  • I don't know if it is quite the sort of place, but there are a few leather workshops in Camden, in the stables market, might be worth asking if it's the sort of job they would tackle??
  • I left my card in the Sainsbury's scan and pack machine. I think I've been conditioned by the Tesco's ones that remind you to "please remove your card" When I went to pick up my card, there were roughly 10 other cards in the tills, from the last…
  • I like the way the Noble use the las vegas / make up mirror lighting, I think they look loads better as one continuous line around the facade. That aside, it's a lovely pub now, super friendly, and much improved from the Larrikins days.
  • I totally recommend Johnny in Hard as Nailz. I regularly pass by the salon and saw he was doing lovely work. I went in yesterday for a cut + blowdry. I have curly ish hair, which does it's own thing most days, ie, needs a stylist with experience …
  • Tesco on SGR are stocking boxes of lovely looking "Finest Red Velvet Cupcakes"... they look good, not tried them myself.

  • Memento print in crouch end. I have used them a few times, quick and friendly service.
  • I asked the workmen today when we could expect the store to open.... another 8-9 weeks!! roughly end of Sept / beginning October.
  • @ smog103 please can you post any vid links of his work? I know I know, wait and see at the musee itself, just thought I'd ask....
  • What about Tesco SGR at night, when they've turned off every other ceiling light (probably a good thing environmentally) but the grim dim interior, plus ransacked shelves, oh it's horrid. Then there are no tills open and you have to join the enormou…
  • I would love to see the clock, on the estate agents opposite Nandos, cleaned up, fixed and working.
  • what state is the blind in currently? Are all your strings attached? I wonder if it was restrung incorrectly. What you need to do is hang the blind from the top edge, in place in your window. and then take each string, from the bottom edge of th…
  • Ah Ariela Ice Cream lady! Where are you these days? perfect icecream weather isn't it? Yes, think we are going down the emulator route and cabling it up to the telly with some joysticks. Thanks.
  • Walked up Evershot road tonight, someone has left for the taking a "fully working fishtank filter system" nicely labelled as such, on their garden wall.
  • That's exactly the thing! If anyone knows of similar in London or UK, please post.
  • I think it's 30% off when you spend £15 or more.
  • Just for you Tallboy, you're going to love this... in the old Blockbuster shop on 7sisters road... the following copied from their website.... Poundland Holloway We have a brand new store opening in Seven Sisters rd, Holloway on Thursday 10th Jun…
  • Does anyone know if these machines are ready to use? They were still caged up last time I was in the park.
  • Just read this page, maybe you could make an appointment? >
  • Yes, it's just this weekend, Sat + Sun.
  • @vickiM, just wondering which schools you did put down on the Harringey application? Were they local or some distance away? Isn't it all down to proximity to the school?? Fingers crossed for you finding a primary place closer to home.
  • I was talking to the guys working on the improvements yesterday. They are re-doing the work - which meant digging up the walk, so it's all mixed up and 'orrible. They are building up a camber, and it'll be topped off with the fine ginger powdery-g…
  • Thanks, I'll give the Cholula sauce a try, not actually been in Waitrose yet.

  • Regards a local nursery, I have experience of 2.... and I would wholeheartedly recommend Margaret macmillan. Getting a place is all down to proximity to the school. They are such a great team at MMcM. North Islington, hmmm, check out the latest O…
  • I think the Budget supermarket at the bottom of Crouch Hill - opposite the Old Dairy - they might? Although I'm not sure about the prices and sizes, but they have a good selection...
