We moved from Hornsey to Islington North and I'm a bit unhappy about not being in my old constituency right now. I would definitely vote for Lynne as she was an excellent local MP plus supported some really important, and probably less reported, glo…

I would build an exact replica 50 metres underground, so that when the apocalypse comes we can carry on as normal.

You may well have passed a large pile of rubbish that we are responsible for! We're making the move over that way (Upper Holloway?) due to the obvious reasons that it's a damn sight cheaper than SG for property. We were priced out of SG a long time …

Depending on where you are coming from, there is a nice back route to Camden that takes you on a dedicated cycle lane through Whittington Park.

Here is an interesting experiment about the impacts of air pollution on health related to our transport choices. A very good reason to chose cycling: http://healthyair.org.uk/transport-option-healthiest-video/

I buy croissants or pan au raisin from BBM almost every Saturday morning as a reward for doing Park Run. I think they are pretty good. The food menu is good also, if a little pricey, but I love the admittedly Ottolenghi-ripped-off salads. Usually, i…

Yes, I would like to.
-
Thanks. The friends of FP have also picked this up and will be raising it at their council meetings.
-
Many thanks for picking this up Cllr Wilson. I am very impressed. Please keep us informed of progress.
-
I facebook-ed the friends to see if there is any initiative afoot and will keep you posted.

My friend says that, where there is one, he makes the local Jewish museum a priority visit. Apparently they are universally excellent. And he highly recommends the one in Camden, although I've never been there.

It's a terrible decision to make in the face of opposition from the friends of the park, the local residents association and the governors of the local school. To make the suggestion that the park should be astro-turfed to reduce damage from the eve…

The park run people are publicising this petition: http://www.parkrun.org.uk/finsbury/news/

If you read it, my advice would be to skip the footnotes.

Kay's still in business!

The main problem with the gigs is that it extends the park run course, making a PB next to impossible. They claim they compensate for the fences, but this is simply not true, my times dropped by 20-30 seconds. I would pay the 57p to keep a level pla…

I'm employed and pick up rubbish and dog shit all the time. If everyone who cares about it picked up 1 bit of litter every day and put it in the bin, we'd have a pretty clean city.
-
It really pisses me off. We're paying for schools only to be discriminated against. How the hell did this massive religious agenda become so entrenched? It's a disgrace to democracy. It's government-sanctioned theocracy, or 'child abuse' as Dawkins …
-
So sorry to hear about that Kay. Such a shame after all your hard work. I'll pop in to wish you well.

I'm going to put in a vote of support for Kay's organic shop. He's doing a great job on the hornsey road and it's great to have a shop of that quality there. But he's going to need everyone's support to stay in business. It can't be easy. The hours …

@wisteria. - we recently got fresh tomatillos in our box from Riverford plus a recipe for salsa verde. New to me and it was stunning!
-
Thanks so much Mirandola; you have helped a great deal. @misscara - yes, for the uninitiated i realized my post could be open to interpretation. But the reality is far more prosaic than that.
-
Wow Mirandola, that's amazing. We live on Mitford road. Would you mind texting my wife, Alice on 078 9011 9012 to arrange? Thanks a lot, Nick

I have been actively told by another swimmer not to pay the fee as I have been putting money into the machine. But, who pays the lifeguards? Who maintains the facilities? Who monitors the water quality (every day - you can check it and it's surprisi…

Assuming you're a lane swimmer: - Park Road lido is 50m and ideal in the mornings in the Summer. Not too busy and has a nice atmosphere. The pool is 'rustic' but perfectly functional and the water very clean. But expensive (£4.50)- Gospel Oak is 60m…

Cristo - I just sent you a message (comment in your activity section). Nick

p.s. we upgraded the fabric from the basic when be bought it. I can't remember the name now, but it's a nice waffle weave with creamy-beige fabric.
