@Krappy. I think i just don't really know what the core motivations behind the project are. Why are you bringing back olive oil from italy and trying to sell it to people in the area. Thats a question for you to confirm rather than me questioning wh…

Krappy. If you call it Stroud green olive oil, then immediately your marketable audience is limited. Sg is relatively unknown in London too. My advice is sell in bulk to people who would be happy to take a 5l or 10l can. I'd be happy to do that. Ins…

Venture only a short distance away from SG and you'll see damage. Hornsey Lane was impassable due to a big tree falling over the road and crushing several cars (on BBC), take a detour up to Shepherds Hill to find that blocked with the same outcome. …

On my way home tonight i watched the same cyclist (he was travelling from Golders Green, strangely on the same route as me all the way back to SG) create possibly 6-7 serious opportunities to get himself killed. These included 1. Going through red l…

Im happy with the outcome, but i find it quite disconcerting that had there not been much discussion on here this would have just happened. Even with all the questions about data and objectives, off the back of 51 responses, the Tollington side of t…

@ Kate Jones. JJ have done a great job. You haven't left the area, you've added more housing, you've added more creative areas, you've given a small non-descript patch of land near the station a new identity. I think its harsh to be criticised, but …

@Mirandola. 1. Expenses issues2. Cash for questions3. General filth in private life calling into question their integrity4. Tactical voting 5. Never saying sorry for mistakes6. Never answering questions properly7. Telling us they're doing a great j…

I think most people can rationalise decisions (even maybe that they don't agree with) when presented with facts. I think the key thing for me on this proposal is that there are no statistics/benchmarks to improve on. Eg: "By introducing these meas…

I would like to propose a new addition to the menu, Poutine This simple change would rocket Rub to one of the finest restaurants in the UK, and make the owners overnight millionaires.

........but the traffic ideas are still crap though right? I'll happily tell them via digital, print, hand written, face to face or pigeon.
-
I'd be more likely to accept this if it didn't sound like it had come straight out of some council pamphlet. As a local driver, i know the roads well and the advantages/disadvantages of taking the so called "rat runs". I don't use Corbyn. Thorpeda…

I will never be able to take the council seriously on their traffic calming measures when within 20ft of this "project", there is twice daily carnage on Hornsey Road created by lorries parked up unloading for the Tescos. Traffic gets massively backe…

Yes this scheme does exist, but you have to have a fairly old/ennergy inefficient boiler in order to qualify. I think has to be D rated or worse. I'm 50/50 for/against this. I think people with knackered old boilers who suffer in the winter will re…

Have a great holiday guys, you deserve a relaxing break.

We visited last night. Our experience was fine, but it definitely felt like a place that was finding its feet in all aspects of its offer. I tend to agree with Graeme's comments. Food - We had pulled pork. Luke warm to cold, good flavour but lacking…

They obviously don't watch Homes Under The Hammer and listened to Martin's golden rule...."always read the legal pack and visit the property before buying at auction". After 13,852 episodes of saying the same thing, there is no excuse.

This is standard national planogramming. You'll see the same layout and range for this size of store in Sunderland, Birkenhead and Torquay for example. There will be a few slots for local publications, but that'll be it in terms of variety. News and…

So here we have it folks from the Head of Islington council herself.... "“We need to make sure lives are not at risk. One accident is too many. The money pales into insignificance compared to people’s safety. “ It's finally gone at a cost of £130,00…

I've always found the debate about gentrification quite interesting. Ultimately it involves population movement in and out of an area due to financial push and pull factors. Stroud Green is on the verge of it happening, and from some points of view …

@ldnflyer. You've just described Queens Park, which is rather dull. Artisan bakers are laughing their heads off at the moment. People are actually paying £5 for a loaf of bread, just because the bakers actually used their hands! Gail (of Gails Arti…

This is a normal occurrence. Typically good intentioned and selfless individuals offer to buy tickets for a group of friends thinking that the gig will be sold out anyway, so will be able to shift them on if someone doesn't want to go. As it transpi…

Ha ha. I knew that bringing up hipsters would get people going. Anyone that says "if you know what a hipster is then you are one" is a hipster :-). Hmm. Ironic clothes......im.going to say its making every effort possible to look like a bell end …

Stop press. New promotion. "Halal" poster on the window.

Im rapidly going off Vagabond. The coffee is holding its own (just), but i'm finding more and more that it takes ages to get your order, and typically you get to enjoy some petty bickering between staff members which spills over onto customers. I re…

This is the theory of the council and car2go Doug. I don't buy the statistics that are quoted (8 cars off the street for ever car2go), but of course they might be true. I think my issue is that I am sick of being manipulated and pushed down a ro…

Although i haven't eaten here (and as such maybe being unfair), the concept for me is completely wrong. Also, the launch looks completely amateur with hand-written special offers on A4 bits of copier paper in the window. You get one chance to make a…

Went for lunch today. The pizzas are amazing! and possibly the biggest in London. The pizza guy does the traditional thing of spinning it over his head which was fun to watch. Super thin base, with a nice crust. They use semolina flour to keep the d…

What a tool you are gardener-joe.........beyond bored.

Im surprised that you're not promoting the benefits of public transport to your visitors Miss Annie.
