The tweets of the week in the London Borough of Barnet 19th February 2023

I have to be honest. I've not done this feature for a couple of weeks. The reason? I genuinely couldn't find ten tweets of the quality to justify it and I was not going to do it for the sake of it.  I'm pleased to say that this week, we've had a good selection of decent tweeting locally. So enjoy!

1. Well we've mentioned this before, but both of these are well worth another plug, in case you missed them

Anyone interested in local history should check out this simple, informative and excellently-researched @BarnetCouncil video about Colindale: https://t.co/t7qf5LiUWl

(It follows on from the excellent first video about Burnt Oak from last year: https://t.co/BFVxBPpIB0)

8. Great memories from when Spurs training ground was at Copthall Playing fields from Ben Harris. Nice pic!

Great memories of Mill Hill. Spending my summers sitting by the side of the pitch watching the boys train. Jurgen was a superstar. As I recall, it was Gerry Francis who put a stop to letting people in. Spoilsport. @J_Klinsmann #COYS pic.twitter.com/Tn2lhQA5ry
