Lots of New Year's Resolutions seem to include taking more exercise. And lots of the advice about not abandoning them in February includes: start small. So here's small. Take the bike out of the shed and take it to Camberwell Leisure Centre to our tuition-and-fix team who will help you fix it up for spring. It's free and everyone is welcome.

The guys will be indoors at the leisure centre in Artichoke Place SE5 8TS from 6.30-8.30pm. They are friendly and knowledgeable and they don't mind dust or spiders. They carry small parts like cables but not bigger ones like brake pads, tyres or even wheels. However they can tell you what you need and most of this stuff can be purchased locally till 7pm.

The guys are all volunteers from Southwark Cyclists https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk and SC are the borough branch of the London Cycling Campaign https://lcc.org.uk. We campaign for more, safer, cycling in Southwark and the LCC campaign for the same thing London-wide. First step to safe cycling is a safe and comfy bike. Next step: our Healthy Rides: https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk/healthy-rides/.

You can contact us on [email protected]; tweet us @southwarkcycle or text me on 07842 640 207. I may not know the answer but I can probably find out.

- Jags Swimming pool Temperature
  
  By JAGS Sports Club Team · Posted 36 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?
