The Tweets of the week in the London Borough of Barnet 24 Oct 2021

 Not quite sure whether it's summer, autumn or winter right now. I wore my big coat to the park as I thought it was cold. Had to carry it home.

How has your week been? Mine has been pretty good. Watched a damn fine game of footy at the Hive yesterday (unless you are a Barnet fan). Had a nice curry with the boys on Friday, a good kickaround at Powerleague on Thursday, a great band rehearsal with The False Dots on Wednesday and enjoyed watching the Champions League at the Mill Hill Services club on Tuesday. It is nice being able to do all of these things. Maybe, just maybe lockdown has taught us to enjoy these simple pleasures and appreciate them. 

Which brings us on to what our esteemed bunch of very wonderful local tweeters have been up to.

1. It's not to late to enjoy the craic in Cricklewood

Answer - it's Manns Road, just off Station Road. The building is an electricity substation. Interesting to see that it was rebuilt in the same style. pic.twitter.com/e6ZvLuh95G

I got it through a gap in the clouds over Barnet as its track was getting further south... pic.twitter.com/NdTQFP3TOT

9. This put a smile on my face. A sharp eye'd local tweeter spotted that my Dad's business used to sponsor Edgware Town when they used to play at the Old White Lion ground. Brought a tear to my eye!

@Barneteye any relation the sponsor on the bottom right corner of the programme?
