Robert Elms

The second query is from Andrew. He saw these little manned ‘boats’ working their way along power cables. But what are they up to? Does anyone know anything about these? 🚠🤔 https://t.co/G3fACmKKfP

It's time for Notes & Queries🔍The first is from Mark about 'The Lakeside R&B Scene', which was at the Old Welsh Harp Inn, Hendon during the mid-1960s. Did anyone go along and do photos exist of the room the club was based in? Here's a flyer for the club dating from circa 1965 🕺 https://t.co/Sx1Jwx15N9

The third is from Mark. Why was the Walthamstow Dog Stadium (known as the Stow) so named, given its in Chingford? And secondly, did Victor Chandler own it and is he related (or connected) to Petula Clark in some way?

The second Note and Query is from me. Does anyone know what this sign is and why it's there? It's located in the window of an office block on Long Lane right next to Barbican Station. It's been there for around three years I'd say 🤔 https://t.co/GMfODvZs2w

It's time for Notes & Queries🔍 The first is from Andy about The Royal Marsden Hospital. He says he worked in a huge basement there cleaning up scientific research. Is this museum/research facility still there? What was it? Is it used? Does anyone know anything about it? https://t.co/d95ijjA8t2
