The Tweets of The Week 02/12/2018

It's Sunday so it's that time again. All the best tweets from around and about our community. Don't forget to follow any tweeters who tickle your fancy

1. This is a story that followers of this feature will be more than familiar with. Rather sadly, the story of The Railway Hotel in Edgware gets no better at all.

Absolutely no change at the Grade 2 listed Railway Hotel in Edgware. No efforts made to secure cover on fire-damaged roof.

2. Generally this blog agrees with our local police, but I have to say that to me this is an ugly eyesore. I doubt such "nice looking gates" would be allowed in Hampstead Garden Suburb

Burnt Oak, the recently gated steps to reduce crime and ASB. They do look nice don't they. Thank you Barnet local Authority. pic.twitter.com/FqyPdRIwAo

8. This tweet will bring a few memories back to many readers

Passing through #Cricklewood on the bus, I remembered with a little pang my granny talking about going to dances in the #Galtymore in the 60's- one of the havens in London for Irish emigrants. Looks pretty different now..! #irishinlondon #timesgoneby #dancehall #lovestories pic.twitter.com/PDN3Keuy6u

10. Sadly we finish on a sad note this week. It's really upsetting to see this. What is the matter with people who feel the need to treat some of the nicest parts of the Borough like a piggery

Sad picture taken today at @BarnetCopthall one month after @mhlitterpickers and myself cleaned up the area. Who is responsible on keeping this clean? @BarnetCouncil@insidemillhill@MillHillBwy@CllrCornelius@CouncillorsMill pic.twitter.com/quxb1dIGeR
