The tweets of the week in the London Borough of Barnet - 29th January 2023

 An interesting week for me. On Monday, we went to see Ruby Turner at Ronnie Scotts, which was a wonderful evening. Wednesday had a pretty good rehearsal with The False Dots and yesterday I saw an absolutely cracking game of football at Hadley, where they narrowly lost to Berkhampstead FC, the league leaders. You won't see a better game of football anywhere this weekend. After the fun at the footie, it was off to The Dublin Castle to see my old mate Rick Collins performing with Jock McDonnell in the Bollock Brothers.

So that was enough of my week, what have the tweeters of Barnet been up to?

1. IF you are wondering if beer is better than football, the answer is clear, Beer + Football is best!

3. Gotta love this tweet!

Golders green Jewish cemetery in North London is where there buried. A lot of famous people are buried there. Kossoff is buried with his father and you can see what his epitaph reads ....... pic.twitter.com/sxbMPV0rGE

A bit cold for this little guy but a nice touch at Grahame Park, an estate built jointly by the Greater London Council and the Borough of Barnet in the 1970s. pic.twitter.com/gB6QjupU25

8. I love this tweet. Is this true or an urban myth?

We also have the smallpox testing kit of Harold Lambert, later professor of microbial diseases at St George’s. He is said to have had an arrangement with the local Hell’s Angels in Tooting to transport samples to the laboratory in Colindale pic.twitter.com/rqIyI6zlZt
