Good morning

A thin few days for hard news, and most of what follows is on the Broadway: Hornsey Town Hall has a flea market, a history tour and a baby singalong this week. The weekend's Remembrance traffic has cleared.

The big story

Vintage furniture and flea market returns to Hornsey Town Hall on Sunday

Dealers from across London and beyond bring mid-century furniture, homewares and art to the Town Hall on 15 November. Early entry from 10:30am costs £4 online or £5 on the door, and the price falls through the day: £2 from 2pm, free from 3pm. Under-16s go free, and traders take cash and card. If you want first pick of the furniture, pay for the early slot. If you only want a look, go after 3pm. SOURCE →

Getting around

Northern line southbound suspended early this morning

There was no southbound service between East Finchley or Golders Green and Kennington after engineering work at Camden Town overran. TfL's notice ran until about 9am, and the rest of the line had a good service. SOURCE →

Poppy craft drop-in at Hornsey Library
