The Tweets of the Week in the London Borough of Barnet - 30/9/2009

We are nearly at the end of September. The days are sunny and the nights are chilly. What has been tickling the fancy of the Tweeters of Barnet this week? Here is my round up.

By the way, I was harangued earlier this week for choosing "Bland, non political tweets for my selection". This is a deliberate policy. Sunday is my day off from Politics and the day when I choose to look for what is interesting in Barnet beyond such issues. It is a chance to give a platform to a few great organisations and to give a little window into what tickles our fancy as a community. If anyone wants to see a roundup of political tweets, then why not start your own blog and do it! Don't moan about my personal choices!

1. How could I possibly start with any other tweet this week!

2. Mark Amies AKA Superfast72 has been working like a Trojan to Save The Railway in Edgware. He deserves our support. Follow this man on Twitter!

@EdgwareRailway @Barneteye @BrokenBarnet @jscott110 @HE_LondonAdvice @C20Society What appears to very quick remedial redecorating taking place at #railwayhoteledgware - I'm not sure if those painted devices are true to the original colours, look a bit on the lurid side. pic.twitter.com/vGKIARFPW4

3. This really has broken my heart. An amazing local shop, run by great guys. I am so angry that a greedy Landlord could do this

4. This is a sentiment we thoroughly agree with

5. There may be some of our readers in Burnt Oak who would wish to be aware of this. Basically it is called conning the public.

We would like to make you aware that Kabul Bazaar of 150 Burnt Oak Broadway, Edgware HA8 0AX is NOT CERTIFIED by HMC.

Unfortunately, they have displayed the HMC logo without our prior approval. Please be aware. pic.twitter.com/0QbYYOdXqE

6. I think we can safely say that Joseph enjoyed his Salted Egg Yolk Molten Lava Buns. Maybe I may try them later!
