My son's school has suggested that we find an athletics club for him. They don't have anything like that at his school. He is young (year 2) but loves running and seems very fast. I think he'd really enjoy something like this, does anyone have any local recommendations? Many thanks

My daughter goes to South London Harriers. They train at Crystal Palace. I'm not sure what age they take them from (she's 13) but my son, who's in Year 4, has joined in a few times when we've gone to watch. I don't know of any other clubs around. Their email address is www.southlondonharriers.org.

Crystal Palace Sports Centre does athletics on a Saturday morning and an evening a week. They have a wide range of age groups. My daughter enjoyed it when she was in years, 3 to 4.

Defo echo a thumbs up for Crystal Palace Sat morning athletic classes. The coaches, Roy and Judi are amazing. They teach technique and take them from quite young. That for a couple of years would be fab and then something like South London Harriers who also train at CP and a route into competitions.

    • I would also like to recommend Andy for plumbing. I had a leak under my kitchen tap and he was able to visit and resolve the issue in the same day. Prompt and efficient service and very professional. 
    • It's about ensuring it's the medical facilities you are accessing, hence the sign-in actually in Tessa Jowell. And I think there are visual as well as camera checks, after all a number of people drive in and out of the car park to drop patients off. Clearly they are not parked up, so it's not relevant if they are fleetingly on camera. It's only those actually parked who need to identify themselves as patients. 
    • Thanks CPR Dave for the link to Southwark's leaf cleaning schedule. Good to see that.   I think that what may have happened was the leaves weren't cleared during the scheduled week for Whateley Road, which was w/c 17 November.  Then they were cleared a couple of weeks ago instead. We have been here through all of autumn,  and there has been a steady build-up of leaves on this stretch since October.  At one point there was a deep layer to wade through. The photos I posted were from 17 December, and as you can see,  the leaves had been trampled and compressed into the ground. It looked a lot worse at times.   Lots of school kids from the primary school walk up and down this pavement.   In case this happens next year,  I have found a contact page about streets https://www.southwark.gov.uk/parking-streets-and-transport/contact-us-about-transport-and-roads - so I could ask them what their plans are.  
    • Amrutha is excellent, unless you are died in the wool meat and two veg most will find the food to their taste and it certainly isn't a place that expects you to be a sandal wearing vegan. Recommend Matoon too, there are many great places in SE23, SE4 and SE26 if you get chance to get on a bus. Don't have takeaways very often and would only do this when they employ their own delivery people due to all the issues with the slave labour that is Deliveroo and the like (and numerous other issues).  Yes it is a different thread but I can't stop myself reminding people.
