The Tweets of The Week in the London Borough of Barnet - 3/2/2019

It's Sunday so it's time for the Tweets of The Week, where we round up what's been going on in the community through the eyes of our local tweeters.

Don't forget to follow any who tickle your fancy

1. Let's start with our historical tweet of the week

Some fantastic images of Edgware and Hendon from "A City Crowned with Green" from 1964 on iPlayer.

Definitely worth a watch.https://t.co/T84fIESQWB pic.twitter.com/ldR6KDoKf2

2. We always love a picture of our favourite Borough of Barnet landmark, especially in the snow

Was disappointed early Friday, La Delivrance at Henlys Corner Finchley (since 1927) was covered in snow similar to 10/12/18; once again her back & fulsome buttocks snow free! She faces north. @LondonSnowWatch @FinchleySociety @hellofinchley @stephenshouse @BrokenBarnet @__Revel pic.twitter.com/6aEAavC2gi

3. Our local Litter pickers have been out again this weekend

Fabulous turnout today in the snow and ice, many thanks to all the volunteers, 26 bags filled ready for @BarnetCouncil to collect #millhill @ABetterMillHill @insidemillhill pic.twitter.com/oMLlx5Nxyx

4. I cannot think of a fitting caption for this tweet!

It’s worth going down to theme traders costume sale if you can brave the cold... @theme_traders maybe next time I can take my coffee van ;) #cricklewood pic.twitter.com/JgTUueusPE

5. A great bit of movie trivia

#Barnet Then & Now.
The opening credits of #ConfessionsOfAPopPerformer see Sid & Timmy cycle away from their home in Scraggs Lane. This was in fact Salisbury Road in Barnet, as seen here 43 years later pic.twitter.com/cb0qIJeUT8

6. We rather like station gardens

#EastFinchley gardeners made an amazing difference and a great start on preparations for the new garden at #Finchley Central Station.

7. Some great Hendon trivia from LCC Municipal

A tatty copy of the 1932 #Hendon Charter celebration document. Rapid inter-war suburban growth saw many Urban District Councils gain full Borough status across the wider London area. Middlesex C.C. in particular often found itself fighting with these newly empowered authorities. pic.twitter.com/SSHykQazJT

8. Fancy some live Jazz this week

6 Feb - Salamander feat. Vicki Edwards - Dave "The Rave" Turner is back with his Hammond organ and his funky, bluesy, swinging six-piece band that's been together for over 30 years delivering an exciting mix of retro 60s and 70s soul and blues and Latin grooves. Please RT.
