Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
Excitement over Olympic torch coming past where I live in July
I received a letter from Haringey Council last week illustrating the route the torch will be coming through and I became very excited that it will be carried past Lordship Rec near where I live. No wonder they've started working overtime to make the front of the park presentable in time for the last leg.
Now all I need to figure out is whether I'll need to pull a sickie on the day or not....
Anyone else who lives on the route and is thinking of watching it?

I hope he isn't either! Everyone is being encouraged to wear white to create a strong visual impact. Better dig out that old t shirt....

I couldn't say, since I haven't received Haringey's route map. Maybe Hugh could post it ?

Looks about right against the really badly illustrated map I've had posted through.

The route looks right but if you go to the Olympic site here http://www.london2012.com/torch-relay/route/ and put in your postcode it says 25 July with a 17:23 start time. Whether that is for the actual torch bearing or the event at Ali Pally I'm not sure.

Apparently it will be coming through sometime between 5.30 and 6.30 so you might not need to pull the sickie

Sounds great - I am definitely going. And thanks Hugh for precise timings...
Taslima, if I were you I would either delete this conversation or just say you were joking (you were, weren't you?) about the sickie. Your current and future employers will be able to see this post if they google your name..... Just a thought....
