Safety and Security
Break ins in Stamford Hill and how to prevent it:
Chaverim, Shomrin & Hazolo to work in tandem to safeguard the empty houses on the Hill.
Shomrim suggests: Install Lock with Chubb
Chaverim suggests: Team of three people to jointly walk around every night a different street and drop a leaflet in every door that is not chubbed.
Tziyon & Beis Hamedrash of Sir Reb Moshe Montefiore Zt"l will be open every year on his Yahrzeit 16th Menachem-Av until 6:00pm and the subsequent two days from 12:00pm until 4:00pm. Postcode is: CT11 8A

London Luton Airport
In Luton Airport you'll find a weighing scale for suitcases and other pieces of luggage. Do not pay a penny to use it, as the contraption is too small for regular suitcases, hence the weight is registered completely wrong.
Use the Luton DART Direct Air-Rail shuttle, which will take you from Luton Airport to King's Cross within less than 30 minutes. See: ww.lutondart.com.
Whenever you travel during a holiday period (e.g. schools are closed for half-term or summer holidays), add another hour to the start of to your itinerary. This is so you arrive in the airport with ample time to queue up for checking in - whether or not you have a suitcase.
No need to keep a One Pound Coin in your pocket, when travelling via Terminal Five of Heathrow Airport, for the following two reasons:
1. Because trolleys are free of charge and
2. The coin will cause you a delay at the security checking gates...
When you arrive to your destination, wait at least fifteen minutes before switching your mobile from Aeroplane Mode to the General Profile. This will save you ten minutes of anxiety, when you start panicking if your mobile will work in the country you arrived in or not.
When travelling with a disabled person, the need to take off shoes or walk through the magnetic security gate is waived - throughout all UK airports.

Nous vous proposons une escapade dans l’Inde du Sud. Avec nostalgie, vous flânerez dans les petites rues de Pondichéry et Cochin, anciens comptoirs célèbres pour le commerce des épices, et vivrez au rythme de la nature au milieu des magnifiques paysages du Kerala, ombragés d’immenses cocoteraies - le mot Kerala signifie “le Pays de la noix de coco”.
Le Sud, c’est aussi la magie des couleurs, le sourire des femmes à la chevelure parée de jasmin, les éléphants caparaçonnés qui flânent sur les chemins menant aux temples, les petites charrettes qui transportent la canne à sucre fraîchement coupée ou les noix de coco tombées du matin.
L’INDE du SUD offre des paysages exceptionnels : Superbes rizières, montagnes, plages, forêts luxuriantes, réserves d’animaux…

ENQUIRY: Are there any kosher restaurants in Barcelona?
https://www.google.com/search?sourceid=gmail&q= kosher restaurants in Barcelona
There are
no kosher restaurants there. You can however order meals from Chabad for 30
euros per meal (25 euros for students). You need to give them 1-2 days notice.
Their details are on the Chabad website http://www.chabad.org/
There is a
kosher shop/butcher opposite the shul. The address is Carrer de L'Avenir 29.
The butcher doesn't sell cooked meat. I'm not sure how good the selection is at
the shop but if I visit it when I'm there I'm happy to let people know when I
get back! I have heard that there is a small selection in the department store
El Cortes Ingles but I'm not sure if they still have that.
