All types and conditions of bike welcomed. This is the place to bring the old bike covered in spiders which your children (or you) found at the back of the shed and feel it might be nice to try riding. It's a drop-in not a course. What you drop-in with decides what gets taught and the more decrepit it is the more everyone learns re-building it.

Everything is free and open to all. The guys carry some (small) parts but it's probably best to bring parts yourself if you know or suspect they are needed. The sessions are the first and third Tuesday of every month from 6.30-8.30pm. The guys who run it are just-in-time guys so they won't be early. But they are super-reliable and will come.

The venue is the Lettsom Tenants and Residents Hall at 114 Vestry Road SE5 8PQ. That's not an easy place to find so there is a picture here: https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk/events/free-bike-maintenance-with-hands-on-tuition-3/ and I would add words of encouragement because everyone who has found it has been very pleased.

This is a joint venture between Southwark Cyclists and the Lettsom TRA. We are the borough branch of the London Cycling Campaign which does what it says on the tin. You can contact us at [email protected] (slow method), tweet us on @southwarkcycle or text me on 07842 640 207

- Jags Swimming pool Temperature
  
  By JAGS Sports Club Team · Posted 26 minutes ago
  
  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. If you would like to discuss your experience in more detail, please contact us directly at [email protected] or 020 8613 6500 and we'll be really happy to help.
- 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?
