"Long live MEB, KWIK Fit, and Bubbles!
I'd also like to Lynn Weber for rallying the local residents to voice their opinions of the application, both during the initial planning process, and the subsequent appeal.
A number of people put in…"

"Conditions of construction
Please note that there are certain conditions which must be met before construction can commence:
There must be a suitable opening in your boundary wall or fence to allow access to the parking space or garage.
Where gates…"

"I realise it's a forlorn hope, and it's not just for the issue of parking: I genuinely think it diminishes the quality of our streets.
Did you ever read the UDP on this? I can't remember the exact details, but vehicles had to be able…"

"When I had my white line painted Highways did check that the crossover had been authorised by planning.
The view from my front has two double fronted houses with their front yards entirely given over to parking, one big single fronted, and my own…"

"Ning. Ning used to have a free version but has now been taken over by Glam, and has charges.
Wordpress seems to be very open source. If you just want to write articles it'll probably be OK. If you want your members to join in discussions I…"
Simon Lillystone replied to Adrian Essex's discussion Far too Numerous front yard rubbish bins
"I could also sing that old song - "Where have all the gardens gone?"
A few years ago, I did have a go at the council for its inaction over residents paving over their front gardens and creating (sometime their own, illegal) crossovers…"

"At one of the recent forums I ask the Veolia representative would be removing surplus bins, and the answer was that because residents like having their own (strange as that might seem - after all they're not works of art), they weren't…"
Simon Lillystone replied to Adrian Essex's discussion To hell in a handbasket
"Adrian, it's worth reiterating that the daily production of LIBOR involves not only involves submissions of overnight interest rates by a number of investment banks but also algorithms that a) discard outlying rates and b) average the inlying…"
Simon Lillystone replied to Adrian Essex's discussion hunter and hunted - jay and blackbird
"Many thanks for capturing this incident, which, in my opinion is commonplace in the gardens of Crouch End - and bravo for providing such an apposite soundtrack!
Over the past few years in Crouch End, corvids (such as jays, jackdaws, magpies &…"

"Dear Crouch Enders. This has been my response:
"For the last 22 years, as a resident of Fairfield Road, which is no more than 50 yards from the Earl Haig Memorial Hall, I have observed continual, indeed extensive, community use of the…"
Simon Lillystone replied to Cara Wides's discussion Really recommend Il Piccolo Diavolo restaurant!
"I'll probably sound a bit like Bruno Tonioni, when I say, an Italian restuarant with "Diavolo" in it's name has got to be hot, hot, hot!!!, but it sounds good, so we'll give it a try and provide further feedback.
I hope…"

"My husband was watching it - it sort of sizzled rather than blew. We thought that we would have to get a new aerial but it seems to be OK."
Simon Lillystone replied to Adrian Essex's discussion My taste for Virgin
"We also have a V+ box (via cable), but have noticed recently, let's say in the last month, that ITV and Channel 4 (but not BBC1 nor BBC2) are suffering considerable data loss in transmission - both audio and video (I use the word advisedly).…"
Adrian Essex replied to Simon Lillystone's discussion Freeview reception in Crouch End
"Were you sitting watching it when it blew? Sounds more exciting than Desperate Housewives, perhaps a bit too exciting?
On a sort of related topic I've started another discussion about broadband"
