The year of living uninterestingly progresses. Next week, Boris is allowing us to catch the virus in many more ways than we have been so far, so I expect a torrent of hugely exciting tweets as we all loose our collective marbles with the excitement. But this week.....
1. Our friend Samuel Levy AkA @FinchleyBirder has been quiet of late, however we thoroughly agree with his selection of amazing nature walks from earlier in the week
Finchley Way Open Space

The whole Dollis Valley Green Walk (including Upper reaches)
Big Wood
Little Wood
Cherry Tree Wood
To name a few
Agree with Keirs mention of Coldfall Wood a really nice nature reserve in ancient woodland.
2. A great performance from our local team in an early pre season friendly
Another good workout in hot conditions, thanks @westessexfc for hosting https://t.co/k8uMblDkTs

6. Nice pic of world champion racing driver Graham Hill in Mill Hill. Looks like my Dad in the background having a crafty oily. I know the pair of them were friends
Mill Hill resident & racing legend, Graham Hill, stood next to the Ford Anglia that he drove in the 1960 Monte Carlo Rally. With him, I assume, is his wife, & son Damon. The scene is in front of the Blue Star Observatory service station at Mill Hill.

8. Well done to Emily, always good to find a use for such things when no longer needed. Sorry or your loss, Rolo looked lovely
Just dropped 3 unopened bags of @tailsdogfood hypoallergenic older dog food at the @PDSA_HQ Hendon Pet Hospital to help feed some poorly puppers. Rolo on the occasion would be happy that I’m sharing his food. Left them with all the ingredients and nutrients printed off too. pic.twitter.com/VyLTZaaKMt
