The Tweets of The Week in The London Borough of Barnet - 1 May 2016

We didn't have a tweets of the week last week because to be honest, I didn't find any that were interesting enough to justify a blog! This week is a totally different matter. It seems that Barnet has suddenly become more exciting than the Wild West, Paris and

1. It seems that the Railway in Mill Hill has become Barnets equivalent of the OK Corral (actually one of the regulars said someone fired a starter pistol, but hey ho). Funnily enough I usually got for a pint there on a Friday night if I've nothing better to do, but I had a gig in Hendon so missed all the fun

2. Then there is the French market coming to Mill Hill. Mark Richards is getting very excited about it!


Mark Richards ‏@MarkRic85498153

3. And Colindale has some great music coming up!

The Chandos Arms ‏@ChandosArmsPub
The second edition of our fantastic new music evening!

4. Our local Conservative GLA candidate Dan Thomas is most excited that first time buyers are "roaring back to West Hendon and Dollis Valley" - interestingly the picture that accompanies the tweet shows a house for sale in Dan's native homeland of Wales? Has he got confused. It is also interesting that the link he gives to City AM mentions nothing about these areas? Oh well, I suppose he has to tweet something


Dan Thomas for GLA ‏@BarnetandCamden Apr 29
This is true in Barnet: a third of sales in West Hendon and Dollis Valley regen estates are to first time buyers http://www.cityam.com/239948/first-time-home-buyers-come-roaring-back-despite-investor-surge-in-march


Photo published for First-time buyers come roaring back
 
5. Great picture from Rob Baker of the demolition of the Gaumont in Finchley

Rob Baker ‏@robnitm 5h5 hours ago

A little tool to help you defeat the invisible men

I've added an IP address lookup tool. If you get an email or you have a stats counter on your blog, you can see who it is and where they came from using this. If you've got an email from someone, view the email. Click on File, then click on properties, then click on details. Now click on message source

You will see some text as follows :-
X-Originating-IP: [1.2.3.4]

Where I've put 1.2.3.4, cut and paste this number into the IP lookup and hey presto, you know where the email came from.

If it says it's from your bank, but the IP address is Freds chipshop, you know it's a scam.
