In somewhat of a follow up to the world famous openhouse blog post which we are still feeling the waves from now…
I went to a talk by the Hornsey Historical Society.
It was about an old school house.
How it was built and renervated.
This may not sound much.
But its not telly.
And its not radio.
And its not cinema.
And its not art
Its learning.

In the league of entertainments.
I suppose thats pretty good.
£5 for two hours of mildly diverting relaxation and occasional passion.
Non-league football. Haringey Borough.
Well what does one do on ones saturday afternoons when ones team are away?
Divide your loyalties.
Cheaper than cinema and theatre.
More expensive than art and telly.
But you do feel homely and local and good.
Im trying to get my head round what league of football they’re in.
They were playing for a vase so it can’t be good can it?

Heres another boredom cure.
Volunteering.
Its a good way of meeting people too.
Which is the best cure.
Locally we have…

But pop in a library and peruse a notice board. Pop on the computer and explore the internet. Online noticeboard.
We describe our skills as ‘creative’ which isnt as good as being able to fix squeaky doors.
Anyway you’ll find ideas sparking off in all directions… Ours went this way…
Tickling our surrealist funny bone.
Here are some pix…
You also find people links between activities. A lady at timebank has joined our choir.
lovely,

Just a quickie about choirs…
Choirs are very cool at the moment but being quite the debonair man about Haringey I go to the coolest…
New Tottenham Singers… @singtottenham.
Of all the things this wee staffy does (a lot) there is perhaps no greater chill shall we say than launching into song.
A wide range of songs, interesting arrangements, cool venue.
And most important of all NICE PEOPLE.
Singing people are.
Cos theyre chilled.
New Tottenham Singers
