Hoxton looking for old friends  

Does anyone know a fella called Ronnie Fletcher who I met in a pub in camberwell in the 1950s. I loved that man but I was a good girl and he wanted too much too soon. I still think of him and would love to know what happened in his life. Anyone who knows/knew him please contact me

Hoxton Gentle Revigoration of Body and Spirit  

I am running a Tao Yoga and meditation class on Tuesdays in the Geffrye Hall, Stanway Street, Hoxton from 10 - 11.30am. It is suitable for anyone, very gentle stretching to your own ability. We finish up with sitting meditation, either in a chair or on a cushion, to calm the mind. I want it to be accessible to everyone, and so I charge 5 and 3 concessions. Call Toni if you are interested on 07981 800229 or email me.  Mail-me

Hoxton Gangs/Crime  

Hi, I have been viewing flats in the Shoreditch/ Hoxton area this week and wanted some opinions on safety. I looked at a flat that was a brand new very safe building near the library and community college, 5 or so minutes walk from Hoxton Square. But walking up there you have to go past a bunch of council estates, which wouldn't bother me except there were a whole lot of teenagers hanging out in 'gangs' which was pretty intimidating. Is there normally much trouble around there? is it safe to walk? As I said the apartment is secure etc I'm just worried about the walking to it!

Thanks!

Edit- ahh just realised someone has asked a similar question seems to be based in the same area. Anymore thoughts to ad to the 2 answers given? I'm a bit worried about the 'I've seen a few things' comments, I'm a young female who will be living there alone.

Hoxton TV pilot seeks amateur cooks  

I am making a TV pilot and am looking for anyone who is talented in the kitchen.

I am looking for any keen cooks who would be willing to cook for a food critic on television. The most outstanding cooks will win an award. We are looking for amateur cooks rather than professionals to take part.

If you are interested or may know anyone who may be interested (at this stage this is for a pilot show). Please email me on  Mail-me .

Many thanks for your time and help.

Hoxton re Hoxton Square Even  

Hoxton Square itself (the grassy bit) is managed and maintained by Hackney Council, so I think their amenities dept or parks dept would be your first port of call. Bear in mind it is a public park so you might be restricted in what you can do. good luck anyway.

Hoxton Hoxton Square Film Artist Exhibition

Hoxton Hoxton Street/Arden Estate, safe at night?  

I am going to do an MSc next year and want to be based somewhere affordable near my University (Old Street/Moorgate area). I've seen a cheapish ex-council flat for rent just a couple of metres off Hoxton Street, on the edge of the Arden Estate, opposite Shoreditch Library, a couple of hundred metres north of Hoxton Square, and I don't really know how rough that area is, (or isn't).

Can someone tell me how safe it is round there? Obviously it seemed fine by day, with the street market and lots of people around, but I wonder if it is safe at night, do you get gangs of dangerous teenagers from Hackney estates hanging around and mugging people? Is Hoxton street itself safe at night, i.e. is it safe to walk or cycle up it alone from Old Street in the dead of night? And would I be completely foolish to park my soft-top BMW on the unlit lane outside the property? I'm not pretending the car is anything special, but it is going to stand out a bit there.

Hoxton  

I think you'll be fine around there, even late at night. Not sure where you're going to park the bmer, or whether it's going to be safe. There are plenty of similar cars parked about the pace, but I don't know if they get damaged. In general, the area you describe is fine - although you will see some of the scary youths roaming about.

I have been living on Hoxton Street and have had no problems with safety to date. I've seen a few things though - just keep yourself to yourself and things are fine.

Hoxton Can I ask for some advice  

I have an offer accepted on a house just off Pitfield Road about one minute walk west of Hoxton Square.

Quite a few people are advertising flatshares on this site in this area, and I'd be very grateful to hear any feedback about what people think about what the area feels like after dark, walking from Old Street tube ? Many thanks.

Hoxton  

I live on Fanshaw Street, which is just around the corner. It's always difficult telling people that anywhere in London is "safe", but I've never felt intimidated here, or seen anything that would worry me. It's very close to very busy Hoxton Sq & Old Street, so there's alway plenty of people about, which is a big factor in feeling safe.

Hoxton re Buying Property in Hoxton  

I'm very grateful for your advice. I visited Pitfield Street and walked through Hoxton Square and up and down Old Street many times, possibly too much, and in fact I have now exchanged on the basis of what you said and two people I phoned who are advertising flatshare rentals here on this site (this is a good source of honest information for anyone looking.)

I have to say that the more I visited, the more it became comfortable, so thank you.

Hoxton Shoreditch Sharks (kids) Rugby Club  

I help to run the Shoreditch Sharks local kids rugby club, based at Shoreditch Park and am desperately looking for anywhere where we can hold a small low-key 'social meeting'. This would be for players and parents after a home game in early March, around 11:30am - 1pm on a Sunday. I am really struggling to find somewhere (anywhere!!) to hold this as The Britannia Leisure Centre is unable to help us.
Please, please, please does anyone know of somewhere local that may be able to help?

Please reply to this posting or to  Mail-me .
Many Thanks
