So how has your week been? Mine has been Ok. Saw a couple of friends in town for a pleasant curry at Est India on Union St on Tuesday, five a side on Thursday was fun, nice meal in Berkehampstead with friends on Friday and saw a good second half performance yesterday at Hadley FC vs Broadfields FC in the sun. Here is the mighty Jordan Edwards scoring the third. First time I've captured a goal from open play for a tweet so most pleased.

Anyway enough of all that, what have our local tweeters been up to?

2. What were you doing 50 years ago? If you were in Edgware, maybe you were at the Premier of the Steptoe and Son film!
50 years ago today, the "Steptoe & Son" film, starring Harry H. Corbett & Wilfrid Brambell, opened at the ABC Edgware & Fulham Road cinemas in London. https://t.co/0DsAPdJH5Q pic.twitter.com/PSD1J2nlMe

4. Blimey, if you thought Barnet Council now was not interested in the less well off, check out this tweet
In the mid-1970s Barnet Council agreed to a GLC council block if they could put a six-foot fence around it.

Did the block or the fence go up in the end? Where was it?

5. Simon Atkinson posted some great pictures of the Borough this week. This may not be the prettiest, but it is probably the best one to start a conversation and I rather like it. What do you think. Check out his other work
Good morning from the iconic 1255 High Road, London N20. A “Marmite” building, perhaps. But fear not! Cunning developers are busy trying to persuade @BarnetCouncil to add some dreadful cladding effort & make it something we can all dislike. Onwards!

The oldest photograph was taken in 1919 showing the London Aerodrome, Hendon. Working from a suite in the London Flying Club all the photos in were developed in an adjoining bathroom.

9. Whilst on the subject of local waterways, a celebration of the newest water feature in the Borough of Barnet
Hey @AffinityWater @BarnetCouncil we all love a nice water feature, but this one outside no 20 Millway needs some TLC. The road surface is really starting to crack up. Btw, Who do we send the carwash bills to for all the splattering? pic.twitter.com/zriBB9cH4k
