I’m about to buy a house in Camden that I’ve discovered to be the site of quite a gruesome Victorian murder and I have to say it’s perturbed me somewhat. Do any of your other readers live in potentially haunted houses? And does it put them off living there? Joe

Is there anything to do north of Camden?

Does anyone know of any interesting places, things to do, activites, north by north-west of Camden? I’ve spent much of my life living north of Camden, and am still puzzled as to why it seems to be the northern edge of anything decent going on in town - I mean, I know it’s all suburbs from there, but whil...

I’m meeting some pals in Camden later on but wanted to avoid the holiday scrum at the markets…. I wondered if anyone knew of anything interesting going on in that area today / this evening (Easter Monday!). Or even a couple of recommendations for nice cheap places to eat or good pubs off the beaten tr...

Hi All, I’ve got a bunch of friends coming to visit next saturday. As I’m new to London I haven’t got a clue to take them on a night out. We like pubs, indie music and clubs. Bit vague I know, but can anyone suggests a few good places thats good to go out? Cheers!

Is it just me or is this getting to ridiculous proportions now? My journey on the 24 into Westminster today was going fine until I hit Gower St – a car park at the best of times – but today took the proverbial – 40 minutes it took to get from one end to the other! Surely this can’t only b...

I don’t often write many bulletins on here, but after last night’s shenanigans I felt I had to air my views. I was traveling back on the 29 about ten o’clock last night when all hell broke loose. A rather well dressed girl got on looking a little tipsy and coked up she then proceeded in a tirade of...

Just moved into an awesome spacious place in Camden and I want something fun to put in it. I was thinking bar billiards / pinball, then remembered I don’t have all that much money. Any ideas along those lines but affordable…?

If you do, then let me recommend Warren Evans (http://www.warrenevans.com/). I went to the showroom at Camden (which is a buggar to find if you are driving) – lots of lovely, lovely beds and mattresses, great staff, really good value for money. I got a bed and mattress and I am so in love with them. Good fo...

Do you hiss at women?

Last active about 1 year ago 24 responses

A friend of mine is confused about a certain phenomenon that happens to her late at night. She gets hissed at by men when walking down the street. Now, my friend is rather attractive, and we couldn’t decide whether it’s a propositional hiss or something more threatening. So far it’s happened mainly...

If you are at a loose end this Friday, have an urge to see a band named after badly dubbed films, or simply wish to get another look at my fabulous headphones (that seems to imply more than it was meant to), then come and see Hong Kong Cinema at the Camden Barfly. You can see a video of their last gig at the Isl...

I suppose, if you’ve not got Edinburgh plans in hand then you’re probably not a “fringe” person but for those of us too poor, wretched, busy or disorganised to get up to Scotland there’s a mini fringe happening on our scuzzy Camden doorstep. There’s a whole host of new plays, s...

My brother Gronk is, quite possibly, the world’s worst publicist; however, to make up for this, he is a fine songwriter. Thus it is with great pleasure that I impart to you the news that his band, Carnival Of Souls, is playing the Camden Underworld (just opposite Camden Tube) on Friday 7th December. Doors o...
