I really enjoy looking at the Advent windows. Such a lot of effort has gone into them and they are very creative. A good way to get a bit of exercise and to get around the neighbourhood.
It went on until 7.30pm for a lot more people. Stapleton Hall Road up to Mount View were in darkness. Mind to the barbers/hairdressers on Stroud Green Road. Luckily i only had no power for a minute too.
Stapleton Hall Road, back of Mind. Just wondering if anyone knows what happened to the boundary marker on Stapleton Hall Rd, on the bback of Mind. Looks like a new wall for flats.
For Finsbury Park Cycles you have to ring to make an appointment. Then you can be in the fast queue to the left of the shop. They were very good looking over my bicycle. I like them but yes, bicycles are selling fast.
If you fancy a birthday treat or just a treat, I can recommend afternoon tea from The Sugar Tea Rooms, Wood Green. They deliver a cream tea to you, sandwiches, scones and some cupcakes. We had the Victoria Sponge and Lemon Drizzle ones.

The Björktrast, the name in Sweden for the Fieldfare is more common than here. It tends to be in woodlands, farmland in England rather than urban areas. It is a bird in decline here and is on the red alert list of the RSPB. We usually only see them …
My experience of Stroud Green Windows hasn't been great either. Have any of you been told you need to re-do the box and sill below the windows and box around the windows? A lot of the houses in the area are a little wonky but I just wondered how you…
We used Murphlin Ltd recently for a side and kitchen extension. They did a really good job, are local and hardworking. I'd recommend David and his team.
Hello Maximus,
She's a black and white short-haired cat. I have allergies to cats usually tabbies and long haired but have never had a problem with Bobby. I can't post a picture of her as I don't have web based photo storage.
Unfortunately there is a brown fox which has attacked our cat and has frightened the other cats in the area of Lorne Road and Marquis Road. I also noticed another fox with some meat in it's mouth so I fear someone may be feeding them. It's the first…
