The careless, bringing nothing, will bear nothing away. Entering from Green Lanes, your first impression, at that end of the borough, is of sad efficiency. There is an air of tarnished newness about it that depresses you. It seems raw, and a little blown upon. There are no flies on Wood Green in the figurative sense, but at the corner by the Wellington one feels that the flies of North London have often gathered there." </p>

<p>Have you read <a href="http://archive.org/details/outercirclerambl00burk" target="_blank">this book in its entirety</a>? I just have. It's a very funny trip around North, East and South London and well worth a read for its views on Tottenham, Wood Green , Stoke Newington and other neighbouring areas.</p>
<p>As well as his own views on the delights of Harringay above, Burke offers a couple of quick sketches including this one of an eating house in a side street of Harringay. Where do you think the "side street to a little corner public-house" was?</p>
<p>"I can eat eggs and bacon at any time of day or night," I said. " But they don't seem to eat publicly at Harringay. Can you perceive through the eye or the nostrils any manifestation of the existence of the table d'hote, the One-and-sixpenny Ordinary, or the Good Pull Up For Carmen ? " </p>
<p>His little eyes flashed from point to point. " Looks like a wash-out," he sighed. " What's that, though — over there ? " He pointed down a side street to a little corner public-house. " They got something stuck in the window." We went to it, and in its small window was an almost illegible but promising menu, and I deciphered saute potatoes, to which I am always inclined. The odour of liver-and-bacon and fried potatoes and stewed steak hovered about its doorway. We entered the tiny saloon bar, and took a seat at one of two long tables, and ordered. Above the clangour of knives and forks and beer engines and cash-registers rose the voices of the waitresses and the landlady at the kitchen lift. <br/> " Now, Bessie, liver-bacon- 'n-sooty potatoes. That yours ? " <br/>" No, mum. I had mashed with my one." <br/>" 'Ere, Evelyn, 'ere's your boiled leg. D' you 'ave suet with it ? " <br/>" No, mum. I got baked and sprouts on that." <br/>" Below, there. . . . Suet coming back. Make it baked and sprouts. <br/>"Bessie, you got a rabbit following your liver ? "</p>

No you're a man so you're a Harringan. Harringana is the feminine version. If you are still mystified, re read the last line <b>carefully</b>. Nothing to do with bananas.

We Harringanas must strive to maintain our bright respectability and yah boo to Hampstead in their flatness.<br />
As The Harringay Housewife, I try to achieve both goals mentioned by Alison although fall down, perhaps, on decent (I am very short so that at least I manage little).

Shouldn't "the stout fellows of Harringay" now force the witterers of Haringey to include the Burke passage in their official Website ?
