Does any one have a copy of Friday’s Guardian newspaper (22 June) that they no longer require. I’d like to have it please. Happy to collect from Tooting/Balham area.
Thanks

Hi all, reasonable, reliable and professional gardener recommendation please.

My elderly neighbour is looking for a gardener to tidy up the back and front garden. There isn’t too much grass to cut. Garden needs tidying up due to weeds growing etc. If it works out well, she will require the gardener on a regular basis. Any recommendations appreciated.

My Miele washer/dryer is playing up. Is there an engineer out there who could look at it without charging a small fortune just to come out? Any recommendations gratefully received.

I have inherited a quantity of crotchet cottons and wonder if anyone knows of a school or college that would be able to make use of them for their students.

My usual walking mate is not going to be fit for about 8 weeks. I am looking for a woman to go walking with - in short fast bursts -20 mins - maybe three times a week. Also, needs to be in the morning from 9 am onwards -so would suit a retired lady. Please PM me if interested.

the flowers are at least 1 inch across and stand on longer storks than the normal low creeping star campanula that most of us know

Recommendations required please for a reliable person who can sand and varnish several floorboards in rooms and a hallway.

On the hops in the back garden -I don't recall having seen this variety before

measures 65 x 40 x 20 cms
dark teal colour
please PM me, if you want to collect from Tooting Graveney

Yay! Summer is here at last and the Fircroft Primary Summer Fair is fast approaching. See flyer for details!

I have two -for whomever wants to pick up from Tooting Graveney

I have a computer and I can’t get the screen and contents to be in colour. Everything shows in black and white including contents on desk top. How do I get everything to revert back to colour like it was before. I tried switching the computer off and then back on and nothing changes. I don’t remember pressing anything to make this happen in the first place. Any suggestions as to what to do. Help!
Thanks
Michelle

to collect from Tooting Graveney -FREE
Wooden frame, in very good condition and the inner panel can easily be replaced or painted over to make it more neutral........

i think it is called Rosa's Cafe.

It is so easy in Wandsworth to recycle household packaging when the one sack takes everything and, we have a weekly collection. However, I see several of my neighbours still don't put out recycling.
I think it should be made mandatory. I know this means that someone will have to be responsible for noting households that don't... and when it comes to enforcement, perhaps to issue a fine... which then brings another set of problems BUT I feel more needs to be done. .

Hi Everyone, I've finally plucked up courage to enter a photo competition. I have that feeling of getting the Eurovision 0 points! If you like my photo and feel able, I'd be thrilled if you could consider voting for me! Many thanks.

Does anyone know of a charity that collects new and unused canvas bags for children in Africa to use as their school bags to carry their books.. any information would be most welcome.

I’m looking for someone to mend a fence panel, remove a plastic roof off a shelter and put up some wires for a grape vine. This is a very small garden. I think I need a handy person rather than a gardener. Any suggestions??

End of season chimney sweeping

If you have had your last fire of the season, it's a good time to think about getting your open fire or wood-burner swept in readiness for next winter. The benefits of getting it done now are as follows :

To prevent any danger of a soot-fall during the summer ( this can happen when soot is left in the chimney and disturbed by wind or building work )

To preserve the life of your chimney, or chimney liner by removing harmful deposits.

Chimney sweeping is cheaper at this time of year - £65 now compared to £70 during the busy season from Sept to Feb.

Chimney sweeps have much more availability at this time of year.

Please call or text on 07421 385 091 or email sweep@tootsweep.com for an appointment at a time convenient to you.

Sweeping takes about an hour, and is soot & dust free - I use dust sheets to contain any mess, and a powerful vacuum to take it away, so your carpet & furniture will not be in danger from the soot that is removed.

Regards, Ian at TootSweep.

I'm really looking forward to the launch of the Fabulous Women and Marvellous Men Tooting Bec venue. Who's coming along? Not only will you meet lots of other lovely entrepreneurs, you'll also hear a very inspiring talk by Ian Crocker on "Maximising our return on investment from networking" but best of all, we'll be supping tea and coffee and eating lovely home made cakes and tarts by Richard (and if we are really lucky some sticky toffee pudding!)!

Tuesday 17th April, 10am to 12pm, Richard's Kitchen, 16A Tooting Bec Road, London

See you there!

Weekly Satsang Every Sunday at 5pm.

Have you been on a spiritual search for a long time and are still looking for answers?

Do you wish to find peace of mind?

Do you control your mind or does your mind control you?

Come and join our friendly weekly online meeting where the spiritual guide, Gabor Harsanyi, will be answering these questions and others. Gabor will speak about the practicality of being awakened to your true BEING. This is your birthright, so there is no need to deserve it or work hard to achieve it. Everyone has the chance to ask questions directly to Gabor.

Gabor Harsayni is a spiritual teacher. After many years of intense depression Gabor found peace by realising his own inner being. He now teaches others how they can also find their inner being, and how to live life from this new found sense of being.

For full details and to join the session visit https://www.treeofsilence.com/satsang.

Price: Free, though a donation of £2/£5/£10 is appreciated.

Tree of Silence (https://www.treeofsilence.com), who are supporting this event, are based in Tooting :)

Hi,

I know this is a long shot but would there be anyone out there who could recommend someone to help me do a re-design of the interior of my shed? Needs to have carpentry skills and a good eye for how to maximise available storage space.

Many thanks
Roz

Has anyone had gutters cleaned by someone they can recommend? Have been quoted exorbitant price for two small gutters above bay windows, so grateful for any recommendations. Thanks.

Just going through a load of stuff that an elderly friend of mine has asked me to sort. There's a pile of really interesting old publications including a copy of TV News to commemorate the Queen's Coronation. PM me if you're interested.

Do you have an audio cassette deck you don't want or need anymore? Or would be prepared to lend me for a week or two? I need to transfer some old cassettes to digital MP3 files, but do not have a deck with stereo audio output. Will be happy to collect from you and either return after use, or buy permanently if the price is right. Needs to be reasonable quality, but high end is not required. I have all the other gear - computer, audio interface, software etc. Please private message me, or respond on this board. Thanks!

Help. I have an oldish motorola motog mobile that announced yesterday that I no longer have a keyboard function. Please can anyone help or advise. Thanks

Hi - I want to move my washer dryer from a very awkward place to the bathroom. The bath will have to be removed. I’m not sure what is required- definitely a plumber and electrician, possibly a tiler. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I am looking for recommendations of where I can get my partners phone screen replaced, preferably local to Tooting. It's a Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge. Has anyone had personal experience of getting this done, if so, where did you go and how much did it cost please?
