Well I'm sure we'd all like wi-fi to be provided by a charitable organisation that invests millions of pounds of it's own money and then allows customers to use it's services for free without expecting any income. Unfortunately such public-spirited ... more »

I do not agree that most people have a data package and do not use or want free wi-fi access.As usually all those who are lucky enough to be able to afford this assume everyone is in the same position.  If that were true, why on earth do so many cafes, ... more »

Balham TK MAXX

Hi Does anyone know if that big empty shop opposite Sains on Balham High Road is still planned to be a TK MAXX? Seems odd it's been lying empty for a while! Personally I'd prefer something other than TK, there's loads already!

Does anyone know of accommodation for my brother in law who is coming over from Australia for 5 or 6 weeks from the beginning of May. 'Cheap and cheerful' is what he wants!

Do you know of any good (and reasonably priced) local tv repair people who can come and look at (and hopefully mend!) my tv? Contrast has gone so guessing a loose connection within. Thanks Kirsty

Garage wanted...to rent

Hello - I'd like to rent a dry secure lock up garage for storage, for 6 months or so, ideally in Streatham, Balham, Tooting, Wandsworth, Battersea...can anyone help? Thanks!

If storage space needed rather than a garage (for parking a car), those 'self store' places might be an option.  I found this site that might be useful: http://www.comparethestorage.com/towns.php?town_id=29626
Selma J
Catherine W- no worries - sorry I misunderstood you! Claire G - many thanks for the link - it is storage that I need but that can get rather expensive. The link you have sent should help to sort that out - thanks again!

A couple of points: It would be a good idea to post about an event like this at least one day before. I didn't read this till today (Monday). It would also be helpful if you could give a date rather than 'today' or 'tomorrow.'
