I was cycling back from crouch end yesterday afternoon @ 5pm~ there were 5 police cars at the top attending a house opposite and a bit higher than Holly Park, then an escort of 20 police cars flew up the hill, guessing they were taking a VIP to the …
The Great Northern Line already does Finsbury Park to Alexandra Palace - all this would do is add another stop around crouch hill which definitely isn't worth it.
Filled it out. Spend a good amount of time dog walking, is it really that non-accessible? There are many ramps on and off, maybe they could smooth some of the surfaces out.
I was a frequent user of Sobell ice rink, this is such a cop-out from Islington, yes it costs money to run, but it always used to be shut during the week with no one using it! I think it was mismanaged a great deal, it should be open as much as poss…
@HolbornFox there was one guy for it and he was getting called a mug by the hoards of LTN loons for saying most traffic going down Liverpool Rd is from out of the borough.
The camera the report uses and focal length makes all of them look like frot…
That video is just full of nut cases who spend too much time on facebook and the website is full of scare tactics and delusional, traffic belongs on main roads, not doing cut-throughs which give little advantage and just pollute the residential area…
The sports area and children's playground are dog-free areas in Wray Cresent, with plenty of benches in both.
I think the drug addicts sleeping/shooting up in the woods is more of an issue as they create bonfires and dump their lime bikes everywher…
I really dislike when they come canvassing after Sunday service on the estates, I hope the same fate isn't going to happen to the Coronet as Wetherspoons are selling it, there isn't much demand for such large spaces, must cost a fortune to heat!
On LukesG's note there is a coffee roaster next to Big Jo's who coffee is lovely, they also have a cafe and you can buy freshly roasted beans which is pretty special (and pricey)

The fence by the lights is full of locked bicycles now, nearly struggled to lock up my bike whilst picking up my prescription, good to see a new successful business.
Ah wondering what was going on there, can pop-in when grab my prescriptions from chemitex pharmacy, hopefully the indian doesn't reopen as it is kinda smelly, not the nicest of stretches hopefully this will improve it.
I'm happy to have a closer Lidl, I save a fair chunk on regular items where if I used another chain would cost 3x as much for pretty much the same product, and sometimes of less quality. Also the building they're taken has never been used properly, …

Due to the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic, the trustees of Islington Foodbank have taken the difficult decision to close to the public after Monday 23rd March. We unders…
Andover has been fine for me, able to get same-day appointments when needed only frustration I've had is some issues repeat prescriptions but that has been resolved.
Came back from Brighton with my bike after being too lazy to cycle back, very convenient, would not recommend not booking in advanced though, £30 for a single..
I went there in the winter and it was terrible, they had a notice saying the heating was broken and you could get a refund before 30 minutes into the film, then I swear after 30 minutes the turned the heating off.
Definitely needs a revamp, looking…
