The Tweets of the Week in the London Borough of Barnet - 15/3/2015

So here it is. This weeks installment of our fave weekly feature. The good, the bad and the truly bizarre tweets in our little corner of London. There have been a few crackers, let me tell you!


1. The biggest twitter storm this week was the arrival of Russell Brand to give the locals at Sweets Way, who are facing eviction, a little bit of moral support

You can stop hopeless Barnet and greedy Annington developers putting these kids on the street https://www.change.org/p/annington-barnet-homes-we-demand-that-annington-and-barnet-homes-stop-the-demolition-of-the-sweets-way-estate-stop-the-evictions-of-current-residents-and-offer-decanted-residents-the-right-to-return-to-their-former-homes-at-truly-affordable-rents …

2. Sunny Neuroshima saw a sight to behold in Burnt Oak, but behaved like a perfect gentleman!

Young woman changing her top on Burnt Oak platform. Being the gentleman that I am, I averted my gaze.

3. Peter Chenery is less than impressed with Lidl in Edgware. Perhaps thats how they keep the prices down!

 4. For those of us in the Borough who use Thameslink, this is no surprise!

5. Love this picture from Robert Hogan of a rather novel way to take tea at Finchley swimming pool in the 1930's. When did we lose our sense of style?

"@robnitm: Tea on the diving board at Finchley Swimming Pool, 1938. " Help! Vertigo!

9. Michael J HOuse complains that North Londons worst planned event is causing chaos at Mill Hill East this morning. Just shows that the Mill Hill East station is not fit for purpose and needs a serious redevelopment to cope with the massive new development next door.

15 minute wait at Mill Hill East so far trying to get to @northlondonhalf not ideal prep in 5 degrees!
