anyone been recently? We have tried twice in Jan and both times it was closed! Still open but never when we want!
-
Interesting that some places are busy from day one (Max is a good example) and others, no matter how good struggle (like Incontro which is delicious too).
-
Having worked in transport (including railways) for much of my life, perhaps you need to understand what really happens - careful management reduces the problem and the most recent problems on the Piccadilly line was due to a combination of the ty…

Lucy Worsley is in fine form with her new series on BBC4 (that well known channel for the liberal metropolitan elite!) with best fibs in British History - my guess is that the 2nd series will include the Theresa the Appeaser claiming that 'clean bre…

Saw Owen Jones getting off the Victoria Line at Finsbury Park a couple of nights ago looking grumpy but think it was because the Victoria line was a bit crap that night!

Over £7k now - congrats Andy!

tony is a butcher?!? Who would of thought!

@gardener-joe, Do you think TfL and NR should have a public meeting to take us through what happens next as much has changed from last summer?
-
So with people power we won the battle on the fencing and minimised the loss of vegetation. Still waiting for Adriaan to get back on planting proposals - has anyone else heard from NR? Oh yes, people power can make a difference @HolbornFox and @…
-
Like your approach N19. I would also suggest regular updates to Parliament which would be published and debated on - like Papa L's approach if only to minimise the depression! I see that the doom mongers are still trying to out do each other wit…
-
My guess is that they will route exiting passengers via the NR spiral staircases with the LU passageway - alternatively, they will route people the other way round but only in the morning peak and match days. It's not the end of the world - what …
-
BORING... And Martin Armstrong is one of those alternative fact sites which mixes some facts with opinion and labels them as fact!
-
Mimsy - your doom-mongering is as old as the hills - the points you raise are perfectly valid but your conclusions sound similar to that man who walks around with a sandwich board stating 'the end of the world is nigh' I think it is time for a n…
-
Can't we all just get along?!? This debate should focus on what happens next, not trying to score points on everyone's view of the world. I go back to my original idea - best 'alternative fact' wins! Mine - Jeremy Corbyn wanted Brexit to win so…
-
This lesson in doomsday economic theory is all well and good (serious reform is needed and all sides are at fault) but blaming the politicians is lazy thinking - the problem is that politicians have been responding to the 'have your cake and eat it'…
-
And of course any trade deal we get with the USA will either be similar to what we already have through the EU or will include relaxation of regulations like environmental or safety rules - I am NOT looking forward to it. It seems like a lot of wor…
-
I think everyone should come up with there own 'alternative facts' and the best one wins! My alternative fact is that The EU Referendum was Cameron's attempt at trying to break-up the UK! FACT! (Sadly, this appears to be a distinct possibility)
-
So the fact that the UK is the most centralised nation in Europe and North America is what you are proposing we revert to? I agree with you that decentralising political decision making is a good thing but that is not what the Brexiteers are propos…
-
Grenners, take a breath for some fresh air! Brexiteers sound like they lost the argument even though the vote went their way! Democracy is not about one side imposing their will on the other it is about finding a way forward which best meets diffe…
-
While there is some truth in the unheard or 'mondeo man' 'JAMs' etc rejecting the current orthodoxy, I think this is oversold, particularly the election results were so close. What is much more telling is the divide between those who are not happy…
-
The irony of the whole BREXIT thing is how many of the things which the Brexiteers hate about the EU were things started by the UK- single market, expanded EU to bring in the Central Europe, Human Rights and even the original European charter was wr…
-
As said earlier it is likely to have a net profit in excess of £50k per annum which is quite good actually but is probably the max you can get from it with such a small kitchen combined with changes in business rates, BREXIT (owners are from Lithuan…
-
I believe that there are plans for re-planting but they have not been finalised. From my chats with NR to change their plans on fencing in the Stroud Green Conservation area, they are talking to the Parkland Walk people on some of these plans. Sti…
-
Rob has been in touch with me as well - I have agreed with him that we should send a small number of residents in order for the discussion to be more manageable and hopefully more productive. Will be getting in touch with everyone to get a sense of…
-
Trainspotter, you may want to discuss the conservation area points directly with advisory committee who are local residents too. We are continuing to push on support from NR to restore any planting which is removed/cut back. The height of the …
-
Trainspotter have you had any joy from NR? You should chase them as well using Rob's email and the Twitter account.
-
To add to billy, NR were unmoving at the discussion but appear embarrassed by the fact that they have already set the precedent next door on the allotment (as well as the green fence at Finsbury Park adjacent to the East Coast Mainline) fact that th…

I would agree with dodo, the pizza is terrific and the customer service is fine - i wouldsay there pizza is not as well suited for takeaway as it is quite thin and big which means it is unlikely to retain heat. As with all places you can have a …
-
UPDATE: NR has sent railway neighbours a new letter which tries to allay our concerns on the new fencing and clearing of the vegetation. While it does at least formally confirm that they will try and not devastate the plants or the trees though so…
-
Perhaps though the existing platforms were a bit low . My gues is that they will be repaved rather than entirely replaced as the track is only be lowered by Less than 0.5m. Still waiting for NR to formally respond to anything - may need to showe…
