Oh, I have a spare ticket for #TeamMe at Oslo tomorrow night. Free. Message me if interested. #twickets #mastickets?
Should clarify that that's Oslo bar & restaurant in #Hackney #London, not actually #Oslo #Gig #Free

Ooh, #Hackney emergency mayoral election, after the 'incident' tra la la, I'd forgotten about all that.

I reckon the Green candidate has the best hair, she gets my vote! 😄

Family of black boy rammed by #Met police car win fight for #IOPC inquiry

https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2023/oct/20/family-of-black-boy-rammed-by-met-police-car-win-fight-for-iopc-inquiry

> Watchdog to investigate why 13-year-old with water pistol was knocked off bike by armed police in #Hackney

The incident in July in Hackney, east London, left the boy suffering trauma, and he is still having nightmares.He was playing near his home with a blue water pistol, while his sister had a similar toy in pink. A passing officer thought it was real, and armed police who arrived used their vehicle to knock him off his bike before handcuffing and pointing their guns at him.He was de-arrested shortly after his mother intervened and officers carring submachine guns realised he had been playing on a summer’s day.His family asked the police watchdog, which is struggling to earn community confidence, to investigate twice, and on the last occasion included the specific allegation that racial bias may have played a part in the police actions.Catriona McGregor, a solicitor for the boy and his family, said: “It is very telling that the IOPC were not able or willing to do their job in relation to the case of Child X until they were brought under the spotlight of national news coverage on the case.

In typical #Hackney news, I got stabbed twice today! Vaccinations for covid and flu 🙂 I imagine my arm will be a bit sulky tomorrow, but if that helps me maintain my 100% no 'rona track record then I'm happy.

I agree (not many people, many don't want to share location, hashtags can be good), but I think it's a shame that there will be some missed connections due to different scaling - let's say one person tags #London and another person tags #Hackney (a borough in the city of London). Should there not be some sort of link between those two concepts? I would like the option to be able to follow a version of "#London" that includes all the possible sub-units of #London (for example)

Quite a balanced article on the #LTN in #Hackney #London, which covers more than 70 per cent of eligible roads. As a cyclist and walker, I am a big fan, and I didn't realise that some drivers were covering their number plates in response. https://inews.co.uk/news/children-arent-breathing-toxic-air-the-community-welcoming-low-traffic-neighbourhoods-2518451

To the two lovely women who helped me put a name to the random #tree on #Hackney Downs park this morning, thank you!

I managed to learn from this that the Dut tree (in Turkish) is the mulberry.

I now also know who I'll be competing with to collect a few fruits from the community orchard next week 😉

A bit of inner city colour to brighten my day. The bees were loving it! A few came to check me out then decided I was no flower. Definitely worth the hayfever.

This old footstool has been around the place for as long as I can remember. Right now I could actually use a footstool, but the velvet cover is getting very worn and some of the white (ceramic or enamel headed?) nails are gone. So I’m on the lookout for a leather piece about 60x60 cm, and an upholsterer who would re-cover it. Though a cloth cover would be fine, and plain brass nails.

Hoping to find someone in #Hackney or within a bus ride thereof who might take this on. #upholstery #repair

Photo of inlaid wooden footstool about 30cm square with a padded top covered in worn and faded red velvet, nailed around the sides with domed white upholstery nails, some of them missing, and white ceramic feet. All as originally made in the late 19th century I’d guess.

Calling all adventurous drinkers! If you're anywhere near Hackney (East London) on Monday, there's a great tasting and talk on the origins and history of absinthe.

Devil's Botany make their own absinthe in London — a green and a blanche, both of which are delicious.
