Depends what generation you're from

Good luck, watching paint dry would be more fun than attempting to get progress there.
-
Probably the parks department + your local councillor + friends of Finsbury Park group.
-
The reason for cutting the grass so short has been given by the council - unfortunately, because there are still so many mouth breathers leaving dog poops on the verge, it needs to be kept short to be cleaned up easily! Around the back we're lookin…

Definitely recommend getting in touch with our local councillors please. We have Eldridge, Daniel and Kirsten. There is a new leader of the council - so fingers crossed if we put some pressure on, it's a good time for change.

I managed to get some residue on my hands whilst doing some gardening to remove all the dead plants. My skin on one hand had a bad time.

Woodberry Down dentists are recommended - have already been and great service!

The value is people, mostly the young, getting to enjoy a pint with music and entertainment from local acts, as stated in the application. The value is that some people, mostly the local young population don't have a back garden, so it would be nice…

With Covid rules/usual pub rules there's someone there to monitor the numbers inside the venue. As stated several times in the document, the money is needed by the council to reinvest in the park. They need to find £15m over 5 years. I'm really so…

nimby boomers strike again

After the year we've had, let the kids have their space and let go a bit
-
Hehe @krappyrubsnif they do indeed have some more niche bits, but the ginger chicken (cold) and sweet n sour pork are more mainstream. The other stuff is indeed a bit more niche
-
Xi'An is easily the best.

Given the numbers of home renovations and new cars in the area, I think we're pretty safe from flopping back into the 80's?
-
Corp tax is already up and I don't know where you think the extra money is going to come from given the billions we're spending at the moment. Anyway, people around these ends seem to be able to afford it, so why not, more taxes is fine, let's just…
-
The rates are already going up by 5% and cumulatively with the other London and Housing Authority costs I have to pay my family is facing a tax bill up by 16%. So, although it would be great to avoid disruption for sure I'd prefer not to be down to…
-
Again, gone goes any improvements to the park we need. The tennis courts, new play area and the extra maintenance jobs are all do do with Wireless money being reinvested into the park. Look, Wireless needs to be managed better for sure, but the Cou…

Properties let on open rent have billions of applications and it's pretty easy to get overwhelmed as you'd be handling viewings yourself. If you want it managed, then David Andrews seem legit (we bought through them).
-
David Andrews are pretty good imho, unsure if they have branches south of the river. Openrent is really great, but you need to pounce fast - so maybe not to everyone's taste. Out of interest, why are you moving south of the river?
-
To some extent. If the move is permanent, that's hundreds of thousands in lost revenues for the council and local business. Haringey Council desperately need the money and they can't get it many other places. If a few weekends a year is the price f…

If you don't get much luck, I find asking a trusted tradesperson that you know (i.e. plumber, plasterer etc) and seeing if they have a contact they can recommend.
-
Worth looking at the thread about this on Harringay online - the poll from the council shows that people on the street are overwhelmingly against the change. Recent council papers show the overall price (taking into account £300 per resident) plus…

Could you please link through to the survey?
-
@bethany336 thanks for clarifying, the group is clearly trying to disrupt your event and got me confused. I'm 100% behind the plans and hope to join tomorrow.
-
@Ali look at my above post - only the proposed outlines have been decided on by the council - they aren't at the stage of getting to Stroud Green and 'Crouch End East' details yet - they're working on At Ann's and a few others. I believe these are…
-
Yes, 100% behind this initiative! Streets should be for residents, not those taking a short cut. Ideally in the future we can get the roads themselves as green and play-friendly as possible. Was just pointing it out that Haringey council tends to…
-
I think it would be worth looking at everything the council is actually proposing at the moment - visible in this great post on Harringay online. https://harringayonline.com/forum/topics/haringey-publishes-medium-term-plan-for-25-lo-traffic-neighbo…

@bethany336 you many be interested in this plan https://www.haringey.gov.uk/parking-roads-and-travel/travel/transport-strategy/low-traffic-neighbourhoods-haringey

There's a plot on Albany road that's a car park at the moment, opposite the school might be a good shout for a purchase.
