Well what do you know. The reason for the Finchley Arts Centre Trust (FACT) eviction from the Bothy has absolutely nothing to do with health and safety allegations, but it is probably more to do with the Avenue House Estate Trust's (AHET) determination to commercialise the Bothy which they can't do as the FACT pays a peppercorn rent.
I think the AHET are really short sighted. This summer, as noted earlier, there are no Kenwood concerts for local residents. The Bothy could exploit this and offer a much greater menu of activities for finchelyites. Of course it won't receive the same numbers as Kenwood but it could certainly promote the Bothy and the grounds of Avenue House and a number of its interesting trees!
This would also be a great opportunity for the cafe - which I believe was once described three centuries ago, by a Mr Robin Grebson, as a hut. Now if that happens I bet they would offer more than just filter coffee and a few Zooms.
Lattes galore, methinks.

About Me
- The latte days in North London
- So like a lot of people due to funding cuts etc etc I find myself at 42 on the scrap heap. 16 years of experience working in further education....and tbh it wasn't a career choice that I planned after University. I just landed a job and continued to work in the sector going from project to project. Not very exciting you might think and many times I thought the same. So for one reason or another I find myself looking for that job that will excite, entice and appreciate my knowledge and skills. You'd think it was a no brainer but interviews are getting tougher and tougher and no candidate is left unscathed by the process, I'm going to ue this blog to feedback and reflect on each of my interviews and maybe I will learn something on the way on how to clinch that job.
