"If I can't figure it out, what's a tourist meant to do?
Posted on 1:03pm Wednesday 28th January 2009
Whacky routes. That's what you get from Transport for London (TfL)'s journey planner, as I found out recently when on a trip with Radio 4's Peter White.

Leytonstone's wonderful art space
Posted on 12:02pm Friday 16th January 2009
There's a wonderful art space in Waltham Forest. If you're in Leytonstone, it's staring you in the face. I bet you didn't even know it exists!

Official honour for William Morris supporter
Posted on 11:16am Thursday 8th January 2009
Congratulations to Peter Cormack, who received an MBE in the New Year Honours list for his services to art and heritage. It’s a fitting reward for a man who has dedicated his working life to the service of Walthamstow, as keeper of the William Morris Gallery. And it’s pleasing that the government itself has recognized the value of his work.

Failure! Horror! Catastrophe! Calamity!
Posted on 10:43am Thursday 8th January 2009
Well, not really. It's actually just a slightly late blog because I was tied up trying to finish off the two stories I managed to dig out of Tuesday's planning meeting.

I've destroyed a work of art!
Posted on 1:44pm Friday 2nd January 2009
That title sounds dramatic, until you realise it was graffiti - by that upstart young Cartrain, no less. You see, a group of neighbours from Ferndale Area Residents Association are dedicated to keeping "our patch" clean. We hold regular litter picks, and paint over or wipe out graffiti. And last time out, I erased some of Cartrain's work. A sprayed "bomb" with George Bush's head in it was among the unsightly decor on a wall near to Leytonstone High Road overground station - and we painted over everything that was there.
