Mosaic Kentish Town’s back garden
Are you, says artist Melissa Hardwick, one of those people who smashes a cup, gathers up the pieces and, rather than throw them away, adds them to your pile of potentially useful things?
If the answer’s a resounding “yes,” then Hardwick is encouraging you to “release that potential” at one of her mosaic tile making workshops.
Gosh. Although the workshops will be free and materials provided, Melissa would love for people to bring along pieces that have a significance to them to add to the mosaics that will decorate the garden of the Kentish Town Health Centre.
“It’s currently a rather unloved space,” she says, “and we want to get people out working in the garden. Hopefully in the future we will be growing things we can use at gallery openings, but for now we need to make it in to an attractive space. So join in. ” Interested?

RE: the cycling
Proximity to Regents Park, being at the foot of the north london alps (Swaine’s lane, highgate hill etc etc), some of the best independent bike shops in London (Simpsons, Chamberlain, Lunar), home of Rapha (high end bike fashion and sponsors to TDF winners Team Sky), a police officer who cycles (Peter Ryan) – need I continue? Yet yet, we lack a cycling club for those with aspirations to ride a bit faster and further. A gospel oak cycling club is trying to be formed, so if that can be plugged that would be good!
Never thought I’d say this but I hope the Bull and gate gets converted into flats, a better end then becoming just another gastro.
