I won't bother summing up my week, as I did this on Friday. I'm pleased to say that yesterday was much better! So without further ado, as the storm clouds of covid gather and Boris finds new ways to shock and amaze us every day, what have the Tweeters of the Borough of Barnet been up to? Here is our pick, which I hope you'll agree is a pretty fine selection. Well done #TeamBarnetTweeters
1. We unashamedly start with the wondeful news that a good mate of ours, the wonderful Zoe Rahman has won an Ivor Award. She's a Mill Hillian and a wonderful musician
Thanks to all at @IvorsAcademy - amazing night! Zxx https://t.co/6IbXp65B6w

3. I am rather gutted that I missed this talk, thanks to Alan for the wonderful tweet though
A couple of great photos from tonight's Hadley Page talk - the top photo shows the aircraft factory and airfield - the photo below is after the Golders Green estate was built in the 1930s, the factory remained until it closed in 1965 @ggera_nw pic.twitter.com/vv3PWp4kxI

4. We had some wonderful pictures of sunrises this week. What better way to start the day
Not as spectacular as yours, the picture doesn’t do it justice. Very red. pic.twitter.com/zqWGHNrxEt

5. If you haven't seen Paul Dykes amazing project on Police phone boxes, check it out. We are pleased that there is a real one in Mill Hill!

6. The big story in Mill Hill and Hendon is the lack of water. I'm sure that residents will be reassured by the huge profits these companies make flogging it
We’re continuing to move water into the #NW4 area. We’re really sorry this is taking so long, as the result of a very complex repair that’s required. Customers still without water should see their supplies returning by lunchtime at the earliest.

9. A nice thread from our good friend Mr @Time_NW
It's now 1998, and a screen grab from a video shot on the top deck of a rail replacement bus. The old factory building is now a kids activity centre called Kids Stop. Note the top of the chimney, a survivor from the original building. pic.twitter.com/F75ne8ZzJA

10. And finally, Happy 4th Birthday to this wonderful group of people
In January it will be four years since we started getting together to clean up Mill Hill.Of late we've been doing our own thing around our own homes. But, Covid permitting, we'd like to meet as a group again in the New Year.Who'd like to join us? Watch this space for more details pic.twitter.com/Ic7Ym01gSa
