Where abouts in Islington?, Christopher, my daughter lives there and just in case I need to dodge a dodgy cyclist on my next visit.

He lives In Furlong Road, I on the other hand being a reformed Jaywalker, but probably still a danger to cyclists live in Theberton Street( and Norfolk, but not today). Hope the daughter is enjoying life in our borough.

Yes , opposite, but the Leeson hall is now a private home I think.
At one end is the notorious Highbury Magistrates court, where criminals are fined shedloads but no one ever pays. At the other end the likes of Boris and family enjoy a good pub called the Duchess of Kent. ( nice to have an old fashioned name). It used to be one of many "old men's pub" in the area. A bit of a dust up and it is quite buzzy now. And what is more the old men are still there at the bar!

Great pub, another regular destination. Always with a bit of excercise added for the NHS benefits,
"There and Back"
(sounds like another literary bit of twoddle)
PS .2 courses for about £9.00 and the Grand Union to boot

Johnson's a sock puppet- a tory stooge, an old-Etonian elected in a travesty of democracy on the back of a campaign of lies and smears from his old Telegraph colleagues Wadley and Gilligan.

Careful spindy he cannot be all bad, look he rides a BIKE.
Bike riders only killed about three people last year, so Boris can try real hard with no worries just like you spindy.

With a bit of a diversion , following some helpful pavement hints, you can rejoin the canal( depending which way you were heading) under the Angel area.About 2-3 miles.
I am sure Jill may have memories of open days on the canal, Am I just imagining that in recent years they walked the boats through like the old days?

Good luck to Boris on the knife crime front, he is going to need it!
