Flickr, photos & the local area
  • Ok, I've been threatening to add a gallery to this site for ages, but hosting images is just too darn expensive, especially when there's so many good free/cheap services out there already.

    I've located (I think at least) Four Eyes and Ewan on Flickr and a guy called Wurz - tried to add you all to a new group I've created called, creatively, Stroud Green. Alas I only managed to make you guys a contact, and its one-way at that - I feel so sad.

    I'm hoping I can get a group of Flickr users together under the one group and feed that back to here. There's some truly wonderful shots, take these three for example:

    The NN by Ewan: NN

    a foggy SG by Four Eyes: Foggy

    and a snowy Mount View Road by Wurz MVR

    If anyone else is on there, point me to you and I'll add you to the contacts, and if you make me your Fwend on Flickr I can hook you into the Stroud Green group - and then see what coding magic we can come up with.

  • this has finally made me upgrade my flickr account to a yahoo account.

    i hadn't used it in over a year.

  • andy, its like the old days of stroudgreen.org, on flickr stroud green you and I are the only members. Cue a year of us arguing between ourselves until some more people turn up....

  • Andy just got me on Flickr

    I'm "emsef" and try to tag all my local photos with n4 postcode, stroud green or finsbury park

  • You should add Lynne.
  • Actually, these ones are much more interesting. SG Primary looks like something from a Dickens story
  • It seems the school picture is for a ‘High School for Girls, Stroud Green’ i.e. not a primary.

    Anyone (Busby) got any ideas ?
  • Speaking of Dickens, did anyone see Polanski's Oliver Twist on film four yesterday?

    Ben Kingsley is a ham.

  • We should do some sort of show at Xmas: the SG players present 'High School for Girls, Stroud Green Musical'.

  • I'm full of fascinating things today.

  • .... every day in fact.

  • Yonks infact - someone called you dom earlier.

  • @David, my Finsbury Park Group on Flickr is now approaching 60 members and 500 colourful shots of the area. Feel free to solicit any of these member to join the SG group. I'll happily join but am waiting for *cough* someone called 'Andy' to allow me to join the group!
  • Hang on. David's an admin too. I have done this btw.

  • Cheers Four Eyes, yes will get on there and try and get the slightly more Stroud Green focused shooters to join.

Howdy, Stranger!
