Hi sarah, Could you send me a text to 07788742102? I'm out and I think your email is going to spam and cannot see it. Thank you very much!!

You could try asking the chap at Wimbledon Sewing Machine centre, in the bit where the museum is on Balham high Road

Anyone have a bike for sale around Battersea?

I would like to start cycling to nursery with my little boy, but I need to buy a good second hand bike that I can fit a child seat on to. Does anyone have a bike for sale around the Battersea/Clapham Junction area? Thanks Anna

Miss Sin
Hi Anna I'm interested to sell a hybrid that I have because I'm changing to a road bike. I can come to you for a test ride and it would fit someone who is 5.6-5.7ft high I would think. If you want pictures of it, I can send them to you if you could ... more »

Thank you MM for the bike seat offer but I am lucky enough to have a friend who is going to give me her spare rear seat. Also, I am looking to spend between £50-£75 so I think maybe your bike miss Sin maybe a bit too high-Rex for me :-) Thanks Anna

Circling helicopter(s)

Last night I was woken at around 1.30am thinking that the roof was falling in.  It took a couple of minutes to realise that the deafening noise, rattling windows and shaking walls were caused by a helicopter circling overhead.  I looked out of the window ... more »

I heard it too and have heard helicopters circling in the past over this area but it doesn't happen very often and I agree with Vivian B that it is probably the police or medical services.

Was it about 115am? If so, it was a vehicle pursuit in which three people were detained. The police helicopter has a twiter account @MPSinthesky which will tell you where they are/have been. At least they got the bad guys,,,

I have a similar issue with Bolingbroke Grove running parallel to Trinity Rd! Is that a Wandsworth Road?
emmsar
Yes it is. Wandsworth goes up to South Clapham station where the borough of Lambeth starts.

My husband also had your same lifelong dream. I decided last year that enough was enough and it was time. We used our savings to buy him a piano and then I asked around for teachers. All our neighbours suggested the house at the end of the road. From ... more »
