Does anyone know of - or are you one - a qualified and reliable electrician. I need some wall sockets put in and either a switch to turn off a bathroom fan or a new and silent one put in. I hope that makes sense. Thank you.

Met share tips to stop burglars in winter crackdown
Some very good tips to avoid being burgled this winter. I was a victim of burglary in 2005 and although the advice is good - and should be kept in mind - it does sadden me that we have to go to these measures to prevent any attack on our homes.

Free guided walk - Saturday 30th
Hullo!
Do you like walking? If so, there's a rather special guided walk this Saturday, 30th September.
It's long at 21 miles but will be led by experts who know how to get people through it - or to transport home if they can't. It does require average walking pace for three 4.5 mile sections and cannot be slower. That said, many who've only joined with the first few miles in mind have found themselves finishing. Very few haven't made it to the end as the camaraderie and unfolding landscape keeps enthusiasm raised.
The details are set-out below and you and friends are most welcome to attend.
==========
THE BEST WALK IN LONDON!
The 'Green Chain Megawalk' is London's longest established long-distance guided walk, very many hundreds have taken part, all have thoroughly enjoyed the day and this Saturday, 30th, is the 10th anniversary.
The walk retains its popularity by passing through the Capital's finest landscape, unquestionably its finest woodland, and offers wonderful views over London and Kent later stretching right out into the Thames Estuary and over Essex. In the walk's 21 miles no less than 63% is off-road, increasing to 72% for the section after lunch. Remarkable and unsurpassed figures for a London walk of that length. The Green Chain footpath links together 4,500 acres of undeveloped land in South East London and this walk carefully balances distance and gradient to allow an excellent introduction to that outstanding resource.
The details...
* No need to register, just turn up.
* Meet outside Crystal Palace railway station at 09.15, Saturday 30th September.
* Finish by the Thames at Erith at 18.30 (6.30pm).
* A packed lunch is essential.
* You must be able to maintain average walking pace, that's 3mph.
* The walk is steep in parts.
* The weather forecast is good, no rain.
* You may join or leave at any point and there is excellent public transport throughout.
* We will not finish late!
* You participate at your own risk and are expected to be mindful of your own well-being.
Trains will be running from Erith for our return to central London.
The walk will be conducted by South East London's TfL/Walk London team of Allen Conley, Jim Kernick, and myself.
This is not a TfL/Walk London event as after promoting the Megawalk for nine years they have now ceased support for longer walks. As this is too good to lose we are offering our services voluntarily. We will accept contributions towards our expenses and time should you wish to make any but that is entirely your choice.
I look forward to seeing you on the 30th and please do contact me if you'd like any further details.
All the best
Ian

Primary Schools in SW London and Battersea
Hi! We're currently looking at primary schools for our little one. Chesterton Primary is winning in our eyes at the moment. It is reasonably close to home and the Ofsted reports are good from what I've seen online. It also has some great reviews on Google but a couple of terrible ones. Westbridge is also an option for the same reasons.
We are definitely still looking, so I would really appreciate some input from people who have had particularly good or bad experiences in any local schools or know anyone who has. Thank you! -
I managed to smash the screen on mine and need to send it away to be fixed by the insurance company. I’m wondering if anyone here has a spare/old phone I can borrow for a couple of weeks/buy until mine comes back. Please message me if you have one. Thank you!

Do you like to party - I am involved with a local Battersea Charity, Battersea Crime Prevention Panel. Every year we hold a fund raising dance in Battersea Park in The Evolution...this is our 25th year and it is on 25th November. It is a fantastic night, professionally run by the Smart Group, the ticket price includes a three course dinner, amazing cabaret and dancing. On the night there are dodgems, casino table, auctions and much more..... ALL the funds raised on the night go straight back into supporting Crime prevention and reduction initiatives in Battersea and Balham, including our own project, Battersea Summer Scheme.
As well as inviting people to come and join the party - subject to booking a ticket! - we would also always welcome people/companies who might like to advertise, donate prizes for raffles, silent auctions/live auctions...thank you in advance - I am very happy to answer any questions - and hope I have attached our flyer!

Has Battersea been renamed Clapham Junction?

Does anyone or know anyone that has Vodafone Broadband in their home in Perth?
You can get a deal for £33 a month a £1 for the router. BT currently charge around £46.50 for broadband line rental and calls, thats zero calls.
For £28 you can actually get a descent unlimited Vodafone deal.
I would rather not be the guinea pig here and try it first just in case its a bit Sh*&.
Any info would be good.
Thanks -
There are probably better places or ways of storing wine selections (like a pen and paper) but as i am lazy will use this just now. Plus anyone can add if feel the need.

British Heart Foundation - Inveralmond
Went down here this afternoon as I need a coffee table. Thought it would be a good place to go being a charity as well.
However, not all is as it seems and actually pretty annoying considering all of their stock is free.
There was a coffee table exactly like the one on this link. http://furniture123.co.uk/corona-1-drawer-coffee-table-cor011?refsource=FUadwords&gclid=COOJppnM79MCFeqT7QodkAIE3g
The price in the BHF store was £85.00 now surely that's not right. Fair enough get a reasonable price for the goods but when your £32.03 over what you can buy for brand new then I am sorry, they will be getting Hee Haw from me ever again! -
