Mahon did our house. Absolutely brilliant job, highly recommend. http://www.mahonbrickwork.co.uk/

Hi We are moving house on 18/19th August. From East Dulwich to Guildford. We have already moved some large items ourselves and are packing contents into brown boxes. We are looking for some help with a large Van and a man/men to help us with the lifting, shifting and driving. Please let me know if you can recommend anyone or can help us. Many thanks

Hi I am looking for someone to put up a new garden fence and fix a broken post in our garden. Lay a bit of lawn and general handyperson to help with a few jobs in the garden. Let me know if you know anyone who would be able to help with this. Local, not expensive. I am on Upland Road. Thanks

I tried them but they dont do bike seats. They suggested looking for a coach trimming company. have found one in North London (CE More) and one in Sussex (Sussex motorcycles) but looking for somethong closer to home! I traced down the Herne Hill option but hes not in business anymore :-(

Hi Do you know of somewhere local to got a motorbike seat reupholstered? I heard there may be someone in Herne Hill? Cheers

Have you been watching this on Channel 4? Can Hugh FW do for fish what he did for the chickens... Over half the fish thats caught gets chucked back into the sea and its illegal to land it. You can join up at http://www.fishfight.net/ to stop this waste! Nearly 85,000 joined so far since its launch today.

We were at the Diwali celebrations at Trafalgar Sq yesterday and we had lots of interest. Its also less than 9 weeks to go before the registration period closes, so if you want to find out if its for you, please have a look at http://www.londonambassadors.org.uk/About/have-you-got-what-it-takes.aspx Thank you :))

No worries Mick Mac, apology accepted! Now, how about you taking part in something unique in 2012 - fancy being an ambassador for this great city we live in? Can you see yourself on the Southbank, at Covent Garden, in Hyde Park, Greenwich, Liverpool Street for 5 hours for 6 days? There will be a great training programme in 2012 and you'll meet some brilliant people and you get to take part in a once in a lifetime event. The Games they are a coming, and this is the best opportunity for a Londoner to get involved and promote the city to the world :)) If so, check out the website http://www.londonambassadors.org.uk/ and see if its for you.

Ahh, is it Shirley Not or Shirley Crabtree? Anyway - was down at the Greater London Volunteering network day today which was really good. All concerned about the CSR announcements today but looking at how the volunteering org's can improve their lot.

There is a twitter feed that can be followed @Ldnambassadors Been to lots of student freshers and volunteering fairs to promote the programme lately as the deadline for registering is December 31st. Only those who register will be invited to apply next year. The locations are starting to firm up - currently at 35 across the city, including visitor hot spots, the live sites, transport hubs and outside of some venues.

If you want to find out if its for you, why not take the quiz? londonambassadors.org.uk/About/quiz We were at the forum3 volunteering event a couple of weeks ago and are working with the volunteer centres across London. More soon...

Numbers are looking good for the ambassadors programme, I know because as of last week I got a perm job on the team running it for next 2 years! Am dead chuffed as always wanted to be involved when the Olympics come to town. Its less than 100 days to go before this once in a lifetime opportunity closes, so please check out the website: http://www.londonambassadors.org.uk/

Was down at Trafalgar Sq for launch of Paralympics on Tuesday, brilliant morning and lovely to see a good turn out

I hear what your saying giggirl, just got to weigh up the pros and cons of each I suppose. This one takes less time than the olympics scheme as its 5hrs x 6 days compared with 8hrs x 10 days. Its a once in a lifetime chance though so I just want to make sure I'm involved! It sounds pretty cool though, what with the free tracksuit, perks and stuff...... and well done Townleygreen, may see you there!

Forgot to say last night that they have a facebook page too with heaps more info / pictures, clips etc. facebook/london ambassadors Worth checking out.... any body else signed up for this or had a look?
