It is sad to read of the closure of our local paper The Hornsey, Crouch End and Muswell Hill Journal after more than 130 years, but don't forget, those 'letters to the editor' read just as well on the pages of OpinioN8

The main topic in this bulletin is the Earl Haig Memorial Hall which was on the market for some time until it went up for auction.

Now there is a proposal that it become a pub, which does not meet with universal approval, or that possibly it become a community asset. A small group of residents met with the potential licensee and Miki provided a write up.

Adrian has ventured beyond the boundaries of Crouch End in search of food, successfully to Season and less so to Dotori

Haringey has published a Local Plan: Strategic Policies Consultation - a document so dense I don't know how anyone will understand it.

The Fraudulent Psychotherapist has been active again.

Events include:

The biggest coffee morning in the world

Nature at Railway Fields and a number of other events at this venue

Bizarre Bowes Park and

A Night of Britain's Finest New Comedy! in aid of Stationer's Park
