My outside drain was overflowing and no amount of prodding with a stick was unblocking it. So I called Don the Drain (yes, that is his real name) and he sorted the problem quickly at a very reasonable price https://www.donthedrain.co.uk/

Hello, Looking for someone to distmantle an old shed, concrete a base for a new one and put up a flat-pack shed, as well as replace some fence panels. Anyone interested?

Thanks to everyone who recommended James the electrician - he fitted my small job in quickly (changing some bathroom downlights) and then didn't mind when I asked about loads of other little things. Great job and a great price. If anyone is in need of a good electrician, here's his number: 07816 160353

I emailed St Barnabas, thanks to Milan05 for suggesting that! They said they could forward the photo to the couple.

Thank you so much - I?m going to try all of those!

I was walking through the village yesterday (around 3.30pm, Sat 30th) and a bride and groom came out of the bit near the gallery in a tuktuk. This is really random, but my friend took a pic on his phone and when we looked at it last night we realised it was so beautiful and happy. Would love to get it to the couple. The bride had long, brown hair and the groom was in a military uniform. I know it?s a long shot, but if you know them give me a shout!

Hello - can anyone recommend a plumber specialising in Vaillant boilers? Mine is stuck on and over ten years old

I have two childrens' beds to give away, a bit scratched but with lots of life in them. Anywhere taking donations? I can deliver

Hello, I have some furniture that needs moving from one room to the one next door - not heavy. One bit is an Ikea Malm bed that might need taking to bits and putting back together again. I also need a single bed building. Let me know if you can help and I'll give you more details. I'm in Sydenham. Thanks!

Another recommendation for Paul. He replied quickly with a quote which was very reasonable - and then came round within a few hours to safely take everything away. I?ve got my garden back thanks to Paul.

Are you scared of the gym? I'm a newly qualified female personal trainer on a mission to help people who've never exercised before (or have been a stranger to it recently) get started and feel the joy. Because I'm new in the town they call Fitness, I'm running special offers throughout March. Check out my website here: https://www.everybodyfitness.uk/ I want to make fitness affordable, so if you get a group of friends together you can book a semi-private session in your home/garden. So you still get the tailored programming and attention you'd expect from a PT, but at a price to suit you. And nobody wants to be the bailing friend, so you get the accountability of a group too! Music is a massive motivator, so I also make bespoke playlists to suit your tastes - and help you push through your barriers. Drop me a message today for a delightful discount!

Steve came round to fix my washing machine last week when it conked out just as I was putting my holiday wash on. He's quick, friendly, reliable and reasonably priced. Highly recommended!

Can anyone collect a sofa (probably too worn to give away)from Sydenham and dispose of it?

I need some weeding and tidying (I don?t know the difference between weeds and what I planted last year!)

Does anyone know what time the curfew is? I really want to take my kids to see Kelis, but wondering if it's too late for them. Yes, I realise this is the most annoying post on this thread!

I called Dave because my boiler was leaking - he was there within an hour and fixed it, as well as finally getting the heating going (that had never worked) in my loft conversion. Really pleased!

I'd recommend Colin from CHS too - he's just been round to sort out my mice and rats and I didn't have to look at them! Really affordable too.

All sorted now - thanks to Kevin (smith 41 on here), who wrangled the very heavy mirror up the stairs safely. Would recommend!

I have a large, heavy mirror that needs moving up a flight of stairs. Quick job, will need two people, in Sydenham. Give me a shout with a price if you can help. Thanks

This is very helpful - and looking at these makes me want to up my budget!

Hello. Does anyone have a good-looking en suite? And if you do, where did you get it from? I need to buy a suite for my loft conversion, but they all look the same to me! Thanks in advance

Oof! Anything but the fire door! Did they tell you that halfway through?
