Packing materials wanted

Bubble Wrap wanted

Does anyone have any bubble wrap going that they want to get rid of? Just thought I'd ask on here before buying even more plastic that will end up in landfill. I can collect any time.
Many Thanks, Sam

Re: Primary state schools Balham

I have two children at Ravenstone and am a big fan. Mine are both very happy there. I love the school. It has a really special feel about it.

Re: Getting your haircut with a baby?!

I believe that Charlotte Cave on Balham High Road has an afternoon when they have an Ofsted Nanny on site to entertain the little ones downstairs while you have your hair done. You could call them to check.

New Italian on Hildreth Street

I have just come back from trying out the new italian on Hildreth Street. Spaghetti Bar is run by a group of young italians, has only been open for a few days and is, in my opinion, really good.
