  • Thanks for the Mover Dave 07792733491 and Mover Steve 07971373703 recommendations I found on this site. I moved at the weekend, albeit only a few streets away, but I had loads of boxes and heavy awkward furniture. Dave and Keiron turned up as state…
  • Was at the evening service tonight at St Saviours... it was actually really Christmassy and very goose-pimply at times with the choir and lovely string quartet. Worth a butchers next year for those who missed it.
  • Used to see Dr Legg all the time up near Mount Pl Crescent - but it's been a few years so I'm well chuffed to see he's still going (warms the cockles)
  • All I can say with regards to benefits is that for the first time last year after a degree and earning a decent wage all my 16yrs of working fulltime I couldn't afford to live after the recession hitting the industry I work in and being on the dole …
  • Oooo I love a bitta history - thanks for those photos Ali - they're great and made me feel all erm 'historical'. The entrances were really quite beautiful... I wonder if they played music in them a bit like you get for the ASBOS at Wood Green when y…
  • I Heart SG would be less likely to be a 'gangland' postcode target than 'I heart N4'.... ! so I 2nd kptownends suggestion
  • @# wisteria53 how do you do those little quirky 'teenage speak hearty things?' Don't seem to have them on my plain old keyboard
  • anorak.co.uk is going to be the 'new best thing' soon I reckon - but a bit out of my price range this year... saw some of their products in the General Trading Company in Sloane Sq yesterday and they were cool. In fact that shop had a lot of stuff b…
  • Grant (off of Feeder) and Peter Capaldi at separate tables in caf in rainy Crouch End this morning...
  • Anne-Marie Duff on the platform with me this morning at FP off into town on the tube... wearing a poppy. (is this a 'dull been there seen that kind of spot' now?)
  • Oooo not from Liverpool me self (although my heritage is) I'm a North-West girl... however I still love 'Driving home for Christmas' and it's my request on the packed car heading north each year where I'm squashed in the back lodged between trying n…
  • Alright Ali - apologies, my Mum's an OAP and went on a course called "computers for the terrified" and is now a whizz, compiling DVDs n all sorts - so you're right I should think more carefully in future!
  • Aha - thanks there David - I'm SO obviously a novice at this and I'm not even an OAP or computer illiterate! cheers
  • Did you find someone to do this? I'm an Illustrator user/mac graphic designer living in the area. I tried to 'whisper' but it would only allow me a few characters... so do get back if you've not found anyone, cheers
  • it was overpowering in Crouch End waiting for the W7 to take me back to the lesser smelling F.Park the other day. Defo something to do with the flower beds...
  • sounds like I missed a jolly night - would've loved to have put my vote in for Pappagone's . . . maybe I'll get some I heart Pappagone's merchandise made for your next meet up
  • I've just got a bike this morning by putting up on facebook that I wanted one - a mate of mine replied she wanted to get shut of hers and before I knew it I was cycling up Crouch Hill on a smashing bike and actually knowing where it'd come from rath…
  • ps.when's the party as I can possibly let my mates know who live in the area and do all sorts of different stuff (musicians, facepainters, etc) that might be able to help out
  • the Front Room might like to get involved as they're all very arty, I'm a freelance graphic designer myself but unsure if I am what you're after? The Front Room crowd are a mixture of musicians and artists themselves
  • wow! were you a witness or something? Mr Roving reporter... really hope the guy's ok
  • apologies that this has stuff all to do with SL's new decor... but had the maddest experience tonight heading north up the M6 toll! Oh yes not normally a place of great festivities and mirth... but tonight what a different tale. I went to the ser…
  • maybe bjork's now considered 'retro' n therefore funky with the yuff now?
  • I'm mystified as to where the folk working in Capital Cars go to the loo? Especially the women who take the bookings? It's bothered me for years... please don't tell me she squats behind the hut?
  • At SG Medical Centre too - it's ok and they have a neon light telling you when you're in next - you see your name in lights for a while in London - which is novel! Also saw Doctor Frank one time crossing towards the Dairy saying hello and knowing th…
  • Alright all? Well I'm new to the site - but not SGR, have lived here on and off for 8yrs with a short stint in Barons Court - that doesn't quite cut the mustard of us lot! Would like to say met some of our local bobbies at an event I was at the o…
