We hopefully have the Fairlands Park Classical Concert to look forward to!
Of course, for you personally, you should always feel proud of your achievements. No disagreement there.
I would like to see computer programming Sunday schools set up in the borough for all ages to learn the languages of the future. Perhaps one large building dedicated just to this with a rolling series of live technology based lectures and projected Ted talks.
AntiRom during the mid nineties was hailed as the beginning of something really exciting, and interactive events like this, were set to become the new rock and roll, these people did go on to be the top of their game, I'm disappointed interactive multimedia went towards gaming,mand not so much into publishing and education, but the app can change this balance. I often think where did it all go wrong after Nirvana.

Have you been to the Camden council building next to Googles next HQ?( their taking forever to decide to move,) Camden Council's new building is like future town, I wonder if Haringey have aspiration like this.

Languages are affective in reducing yet another barrier, and it is easier with children.

I have Imagined Hornsey College of Art: reboot: it would exist in our front rooms as talks about our specialisms, it is about adult learning and understanding, it could start as a HoL group, education is becoming ridiculous to fund, and we all have knowledge to share, through informal education and mentoring. Half of Goldsmiths College looks like the Ladder, with faculties annexing what once were domestic dwellings.
Michael Anderson is usually the Author of the Bucket List on HoL here is his contribution from a previous Harringay Election

Dear election candidates, my bucket list

In sure there was one for 2010 as well.
