Take care of your valuables at Swiss Cottage Leisure Centre

There's unwelcome news if you're a user of the Swiss Cottage swimming pool. The Ham & High reports that there has been a spate of break-ins to lockers, with swimmers returning from a swim to find their valuables and even their clothes stolen. Camden Council say there have been 21 such break-ins this year.

Still in business

Apologies for the recent lack of activity. Pressure of work has prevented me keeping across things locally. Please keep checking back. Northwest 6 is still in business and things should improve a bit now.

Speaking of still in business, one of our local shops, Bake A Boo, received a hefty piece of promotion in the local press this week for reaching its first anniversary. Bake A Boo is run by 25-year-old Zoe Berkeley, who grew up in the area - which she seems to regard as a great place to do business. She tells the Ham & High, "The people on Mill Lane and in the roads just off it are a community. They are really supportive of independent shops like us."
