This is the last session under the Arch this year. We don't carry on after the hour change -- the mechanics' hands get too cold and they can't see what they're doing. Seem like good reasons. They will be working away from 5.30-7.30pm. A pic of the Arch is attached.

Our great team of mechanics (volunteers led by a pro) fix brakes, index gears, pump up tyres, and look for the source of that squeak. They are multi-talented and enjoy a challenge so if you've got one, bring it along. If you can't get along then we also run a teach-and-mend session at Camberwell Leisure Centre on the first and third Tuesdays of every month. The next one will be October 15th. That is a bit later -- 6.30-8.30pm.

All this stuff is free and (we hope) welcoming. We are Southwark Cyclists and we are the borough branch of the London Cycling Campaign. Our website is here: https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk and the LCC's website is here: https://lcc.org.uk/?ref=nav. You can contact us on [email protected], tweet us @southwarkcycle or text me on 07842 640 207. I might or might not know the answer but I'm friendly.

  Hello! We are relocating abroad and so will be withdrawing our two children (ages 4 and 6) from St Dunstan’s College (Catford). If any family is considering enrolling children of a similar age, now would be an excellent opportunity—we’re required to pay full‑term fees unless the places are taken. Please get in touch if you’re interested or know someone who might be. Thank you!

  Hi I really thought I'd seen a more recent post on the forum about home education meet ups. I can't find it though.

  Thanks for your reply. I’ve subscribed to Ancestry a few times in the past but felt I wasn’t using it enough to warrant keeping up the subscription.
- Does anyone remember an incident from the late 90s/early 00s in which a young man fell to death from Dawsons Heights?

  Hi, I saw your post and just wanted to say that the incident you’re referring to did happen in the late 1980s at Dawson’s Heights. The person involved was named Carl Salawa, and he had just turned 18 years old at the time. Like you, I haven’t been able to find any news articles or official reports about it, If anyone remembers anything more about that time or incident, I’d really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks for sharing what you were told—it means a lot to know others remember.
