  • I haven't got much faith in Dr Nubi's surgery. My physio decided in July that I needed further treatment from Orthopaedics at the Whittington and duly sent a letter to my GP requesting a referal. Naively I waited thinking that the sugery would send …

  • I bought some new permits back in April, just before the Hornsey office closed down. At the time the girl told me that she had to make sure that she gave me the right ones as the CPZ was about to be split into three. For the life of me I can't see a…

  • To the woman who challenged me in the street to tell me that she'd seen my dog crapping on the pavement last week... for your information my dog was put down five weeks ago. Over zealous pompus busybody, get your facts right before you go around acc…

  • No, which bar in the Fullback. BTW, it was the weekend of the Feis in Finsbury Park. By all accounts it was absolutely manic in there on the Saturday night. There were many people who were not welcome in there for various reasons and if they made th…

  • I've just spent much tme reading this thread and all I can think of is that you (most of you anyway) are the same people who were in favour of the bench being taken away from outside Tescos for these very same reasons. Well that didn't solve the pro…

  • 3rd Oct is also the Dogs Trust 'Waggy Walks' day in Finsbury Park. Who's responsible for the double booking?

  • The reason why the annual bulky waste collection is only advertised (leaflet drop) so close to the date is to stop people from neighbouring areas bringing the stuff in and dumping it in your roads. It's ditto with the skips. It's a well known fact t…

    in Nigerian Carnival in the park this weekend Comment by leiba1 August 2010
  • There is an events piece on Haringey.gov.uk but it's useless. I've just looked and there's only one item listed there. That's part of the problem, not knowing what's going on. You can't plan anything if you're not informed. What if you'd planned to…

  • What makes me mad about about things like this is that as residents immediately affected by park events we are never told, let alone consulted about them.

  • It seems it was a stabbing on the Parkland Walk at around 2.30am and the victim made his way to the cab office by the carwash. I was away for the weekend and have come back to reports of two stabbings and a shooting in the vicinity. I too now think …

  • Carp, perch, roach, although a few years ago the council, in their wisdom, took the big carp (breeders) out and sold them to a fishery. They were quite big carp too. Then I heard that they had to restock the pond as there were no decent sized fish i…

  • Islington? Finsbury Park is in Haringey. The park may be quite big but take away spaces already used like the running track, the pond, the flower gardens, the cafe, the cricket ground, the road, baseball pitch and various football areas etc and it d…

  • And whose brilliant idea was it to stage this concert at the end of the half term holiday? All that setting up of the stage, fences and other restrictions meant that yet another large chunk of the park was not available for familes or other park use…

  • I was crossing there a few years ago and had a near miss. The first car stopped and I checked for traffic coming the other way. There was a car coming but it had plenty of time to stop so I started to cross. I was about halfway across when something…

  • We've had two close encounters with furry pests. The first was when my dog suddenly looked up and stared at the open living room door. Thinking she'd seen a mouse scuttle behind it I went over and carefully peeked behind it to look for the mouse. Th…

  • We had two foxes visit us a few evenings ago. One was definately a dog fox but both of them were very dark and had a lot of black fur in their coats.

  • On the Hackney Freecycle site is a request for yarns and needles to be used to "teach newbies how to knit" held Monday evenings in the Worlds End. It's from 'Transition Finsbury Park'. (look it up)
