The Tweets of the Week in the London Borough of Barnet -20/09/2020

 So what have our local tweeters been up to this week? What has been happening in our corner of paradise?

1. I always find this sort of local story fascinating

Over £200,000 of 'criminal' cash found inside husband and wife's Edgware homehttps://t.co/4bDTUXoGBF

2. Nice to see there is some culture locally!

Almost exactly six months to the day since I last saw a show I’m at the Bothy Garden in Finchley for RENAISSANCE. That was a long 6 months! pic.twitter.com/yNPAFwO3ZT

3. The highlight of Clarence Mitchell's career IMHO was when he wrote the local music column in the Barnet Times! Here is a slightly less well known story he coverd ;) He's a good guy, always very supportive of local bands

As one of the very few reporters allowed into 195 Melrose Ave during the police dig, I can say that #Des @itv was superb. @David_Tennant, @DanielMays9, @Jason__Watkins deserve all the plaudits they’re getting. Only surprising tiny error by producers. Cricklewood is NW2, not N2... pic.twitter.com/S1BljrpurS

4. This is a story we've been following in this feature for far too long. It seems like there is some news

 

It's been a long time since I tweeted about the Railway Hotel, Edgware. That's because nothing had happened with it. However, today I saw that it's TO LET.

5. Seems like some repairs are urgently needed to Edgwares roads

 

This is the standard of the carriageway at the junction if Broadfields Avenue and Hale Lane in Edgware. I ride a bike with 16” wheels and today I nearly lost it, this road is disgraceful, how are you going to get people onto bicycle if you don’t maintain the roads @BarnetCouncil pic.twitter.com/1YRDdVlUqf

6. How are your fruit and veg doing? Donalds are looking in fine fettle!

Many thanks for the warmer weather @LondonSnowWatch that arrived last week. Have picked runner beans and sweetcorn Friday, Sunday, and today, with more to come..! pic.twitter.com/5lAaZdFLyg
