The one portraying Lynne Featherstone as death is actually my better half. She's only gone and kept that bloody mask, though - it's bloody terrifying when you find it suddenly, possibly under the influence of something

By curious coincidence, Lynne Featherstone looked pretty deathly when local activists picketed an event of hers recentlyThe one portraying Lynne Featherstone as death is actually my better half.

This is important for Wood Green, seriously there should be public information about NHS cuts in every corner of Wood Green:
Organised by the Better Local Healthcare Campaign supported by HAPS Haringey Alliance for Public Services aka 'the Alliance' aka a chance to defend our jobs and our country for people in Haringey.

Oh if its still there I'll go in and buy one, on another note I was in Morrisons yesterday and an employee was doling out reduced food through a gap next to the veg to like a scrum of twenty or so jostling shoppers scrabbling for bargains, it was fucking horrifying I was staring for ages until I went in and got two bags of spuds for 18p.

well done sihhi, I'm no longer in the alliance as I now work from home in Leyton, but PLEASE all Haringey residents do attend - these are your services being decimated
And give up skin bleaching levels of chlorine and infectious skin diseases that my Haringey leisure pass affords me, never.

Exciting times in Shopping City. A new pavement widening scheme is in progress. Having lived here 17 years, I fondly remember the first pavement widening scheme from 2002.
"Pavements are being widened, more pedestrian crossings and better lighting is being installed, and the road will be raised in several areas in a bid to reduce driving speeds and prioritise pedestrians at junctions.
New bus shelters will be installed along the High Road, with some stops relocated, and more new signage, new bicycle stands, trees, plants and “green walls” will appear."

A game-changer in the history of Wood Green - the release of the Wood Green Area Action Plan and a new vision for Wood Green.

This could mean the end of Shopping City, (as we know it).

Attended a 'drop-in' session in Morrison's supermarket this evening.
Verbal confirmation from a housing officer that Shopping City could be turned to dust.
Also seems the Council Offices opposite the tube will be subject to change of use: though I'm not clear if the intention is to knock them down as well.

In a very exciting discovery today, I was checking out early Jethro Tull gig timelines while waiting for the Breeders to come on stage at the Roundhouse. Much to my surprise I discover that the newly formed Tull played 2 gigs in Wood Green back in 1968 before hitting the big time.
The venue in question being the now closed 'Fishmonger's Arms'
The following link shows a vintage history up until the mid-70s. Sadly all closed down now, though I believe the Fishmonger's is still standing unlike the Nightingale.
