Tonight the Bowes Park Community Association, have a fundraising Quiz, at Bounds Green Bowls and Tennis club.

This weekend is the centenary celebration of Grovelands Park opening to the public - looks like there will be lots of fun activity - and a rare chance to take out a boat on Grovelands Lake.

A new music night opens at Mums Lounge, Myddleton Road on Friday night – run by local music organisation Out of Bounds; Also tonight Doc K's band play the weekly Blues Club at St Harmonica's Southgate. Slightly further afield (just a 329 bus up Green Lanes) is a fairly new open-mic night on Tuesday 21st at the Beehive N9. The latest fundraiser for the Pinkham Way Alliance “Café Cabaret” takes place on Sunday evening.

Next Thursday, 23rd is the latest in the Discovering London talks by Peter Berthoud, this one on the New River’s 400th anniversary.

Coming soon:

Bowes Park Walking Group visit the Regents Canal May 25th
Poverty: Local and Global awareness and activism May 28th

Many more events and activities are listed at the website - and you can add your own.

Discussions

Last week we reported on media interest in the Tin Tabernacle and George Moore's Menswear ... stories that have been matched this week by new media interest in our area. The Wood Green Banksy is being offered for auction in London next month; and Bowes Park featured on BBC TV’s Homes under the Hammer – including a sequence filmed at The Step on Myddleton Road.

We are very grateful to The Step, Mat interrupted his Quiz night on Wednesday to make an impromptu presentation of money donated via their Book Swap to support the Bowes and Bounds Connected website. Now they are looking for another local cause to support - any suggestions?

Consultation has opened this week on the major transport proposals for Crossrail 2 which will connect central London via Alexandra Palace - what's your view? Also on transport - if you are traveling around town this weekend make a note that the Piccadilly Line has track replacement work at the western end.

We learned via our Bowes Councillors website of a licensing application for a former cafe on Green Lanes - it seems controversial application what do you think?

Do you have any suggestions for other content to include on the site? Let us know.

Elsewhere on the web
Our Flickr Pool of local photographs unearthed our picture of the week - and also a quirky local claim to fame - if you go to Google Maps and search for "poo path" a surprising location is revealed - one we have discussed before on the site.
If you have local photographs to share please get in touch.
Between our weekly updates you can follow the Bowes and Bounds discussions on Twitter or via our Facebook Page. We are also on Google+, Flickr and YouTube.

Keep in touch.
