Friday Fun 23rd February 2024

 As is the tradition in the Barnet blogs, we have a Friday joke and short list of some of the things you can do this weekend in the London Borough of Barnet. Let's start with the joke. When I was at school, my careers teacher told that the way to impress potential employers was to make sure you go into the interview dressed in a way that will make an impression on the panel and stand out from the crowd. Sadly, when I turned up for an interview at Cricklewood British rail depot for a job as a diesel engineer, the Batman suit I'd bought specially for the interview turned out to be a mistake. 

And on to the round up of great things to do in the Borough.

In this week when Barnet FC announce their intention to return to the Borough, why not  watch some great football at Barnet's oldest club on Saturday, come down to Brickfield Lane (opposite The Gate Pub) for Hadley FC.
