Easy-paced flat ride with a Charlie Chaplin theme. Charlie was born and brought up in South London so a 2 hour ride from Peckham can include his birthplace and many places he lived in while growing up, including the Lambeth Workhouse. His mother took her family to the workhouse twice and Chaplin was sent to a school for destitute children.

Eventually his life got better. He went to Hollywood, married four times and had eleven children, received numerous honours. Details of the route and (briefly) his later life are attached.

The ride starts from Peckham Square (SE15 5JR 122 Peckham Hill Street) at 10am and ends in the same place at 12 noon. The route map is here: www.mapmyride.com/workout/2508868517. Harry will be leading. These rides are organised by Bruce Lynn and friends on behalf of Southwark Cyclists. We are the borough branch of the London Cycling Campaign. Everything we do is free and you don't pay anything on the day or any other time. The only rule is that children must bring an adult with them. Preferably a responsible one but any one will do.

Our website is here: https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk. The LCC website is here: https://lcc.org.uk//. The weather forecast is cloud but no rain and a bit warmer. Though that can change.

  Thanks for your feedback - we always appreciate hearing from members about their experience. The pool temperature at JAGS Sports Club is maintained at 29oC, in line with industry guidelines for mixed-use pools. This temperature has been designed to balance comfort for lane swimmers and families. Air temperature is also monitored regularly to ensure a comfortable environment for swimmers, spectators and staff. The shower Temperature Mixing Valves (TMVs) were changed in December to improve consistency, and we hope this has made a noticeable difference.

- Councillor McAsh defects to the Greens

  One wonders if he would have defected if he had, ahem, held on to the leadership of Southwark and whether he felt that "Labour are no longer the vehicle for social justice" during his leadership election........my how quickly things change in the thoughts of a politician 😉 I think this sums things up quite nicely: A senior Southwark Labour spokesperson hit back: “Local residents can draw their own conclusions about Cllr McAsh’s swift move from Labour leadership hopeful to the Green Party, after he didn’t get his own way. While he’s thinking about his own career, Southwark Labour are delivering for residents.” One wonders if he will stand as a Green candidate in Goose Green.

  No doubt if he determines to stand for a ward he will enlighten us - at least his track record is one of using this site to communicate (inter alia). I would suspect that (1) his personal views on traffic will have remained consistent but that (2) his views on local democracy and proper consultation will have as well.

  Yes, but I want to know where he stands on all this stuff now. My feeling is it won't be any different from Labour?
