I was a proud sprite of the 18th Birmingham. We didn't go camping but we did learn 'tracking' and 'orienteering' in the churchyard.

Thanks Arkady, that's exactly the decisive comment I was after. I think we'd prefer meze anyway. Looking forward to the cocktails.

Just realised that it might be Network Rail's responsibility, as the problem is being caused by the underside of the bridges. Oh dear. I remember that pigeon carcass as well, it was very grim.

The faded red 'Finsbury Park Mansions' sign above the door between the World's End and Pak's Cosmetic Centre.

@Barky Aren't you worried about your own tail?

squirrels.info recommends the following: Severe flesh wounds, abscesses, bleeding or broken bones will need immediate veterinary treatment. Internal injuries may be hard to diagnose, but possible symptoms would be bleeding from nose, ears or mouth …

How about phoning the RSPCA for advice or checking their website? I hope our Barky_Fox isn't the culprit!

MC, this is the text from the email: Unfortunately your query does not fall under our remit therefore we have passed on your query to Waste Management at Haringey Council who will be able to deal effectively with your complaint. Waste Management wi…

I have recently complained to the council about the pigeon shit beneath the railway bridges. I thought I might as well complain to someone whose responsibility it is, rather than just generally complain/moan to the person next to me. I complained…

Beware going to Haberdashery if you just want coffee and cake. You'll need to go at a non-busy time, otherwise they will only give you a table if you order a full meal.

I like the little bell tower on the top of Stroud Green school, especially when it's silhouetted in the moonlight. Also the far-reaching views from the higher points of the upper east side, before you walk down the hill to Crouch End. In the p…

The Midlands are the Midlands are the Midlands. But some are East and some are West.

@Emma Brilliant! I have waited so long for this moment!

I went to Coffee Cake on Saturday. The cakes are delicious (we chose apple and vanilla, and mango and raspberry) and the staff are very nice. They also do very good salads.

@JonSatriani The self-checkout helpers in Sainsbury's are very good. Also Tesco now has a particularly helpful guy who attends the self-checkouts. At Sainsbury's you are given the option to select 'I'm using my own bags' and it allows you time to…

Perhaps they don't have much money to do it up, and they're doing a 'soft launch' for the time being.

@Emma, those shops always used to smell of rubber flipflops. @Ali - what kind of shiny things - home stuff?
-
I went as well. It was pretty good but very crowded - the hall is quite small. Perhaps they can expand into the car park in better weather.
-
Another vote for the white-haired man in the chemist. Very efficient, polite and quietly confident.

I met Barky Fox last night - at least I think it was him. He was sitting outside the gates to the old people's home next to the minicab office. He was very bold and didn't budge - he was almost blocking the pavement. He stared me out. Description…

How about buying a rose bush instead? Are they available at this time of year?

Add the convoluted route and the speed bumps on residential roads, to the speed demon drivers letting loose on the Seven Sisters Road, and the 153 is often the cause of nausea. The 4 does smell. Also the prevailing design of bus on the 4 route h…

The cut-off boarding point for avoiding the masses of school kids is 8am. The worst time is between 0820-0830 when you can't always get a seat even at FP.

Outrageous termination at Highbury Corner last night! I get the 4 home from work and it often terminates at Highbury Corner during rush hour. It's incredibly annoying and inconvenient. The 'destination has changed' message is played just after An…

A royal wedding commemorative mural, featuring all the past monarchs and their consorts, right back to William the Conqueror and Matilda, and including Prince Charles just in case he does ever become King before William.

An update on the Stroud Green Medical Centre. I saw a locum there the other day and he was terrible. The worst 'manner' I have ever experienced. He was on his mobile phone when I walked in, he continued his phone conversation for several minutes…

Last night I went to the Stapleton for the first time (having been several times when it was the Larrik). The fire was roaring, Estrella flowing, barstaff friendly and efficient, tables plentiful. I like the new layout alongside the bar, with lots o…

I noticed those disappearing cars as well. We're streetcar members and find it convenient to have the bays on Victoria and Osborne. I think they are well used, because sometimes they've all been booked and we had to go further afield to Hanley Rd or…
