This free, two-hour session (you don't have to stay for the whole lot) is in Camberwell Leisure Centre in Artichoke Place SE5 8TS 6.30-8.30pm. It's a drop-in, not a course, if you come for one you don't have to come to any more (though we hope you would want to.

It's run by Southwark Cyclist Bruno, and his mate Thom with professional support from Charlie. What they teach depends on what you bring. They help you fix what's broken and tell how and why you are doing it. They carry small parts like cables but not not bigger ones like wheels. So if you know you need new tyres or brake blocks then bring them with you.

Southwark Cyclists is the borough branch of the London Cycling Campaign which campaigns for safer cycling throughout London. We campaign for safer cycling in Southwark. Our website is here: https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk. You can contact us on [email protected], tweet us @southwarkcycle or text me at 07842 640 207 and see if I can help. Like everything we do these sessions are free and open to all. Everyone welcome. Just turn up.

  Ask the surgeries. Most dentists I have been to were child friendly. The only one was the school dentist who'd come in a caravan and do lots of unnecessary work, which I now suffer from.
- Berkeley Homes 27 Storey flats in centre of Peckham - sign the petition

  Round-robin letter received this week regarding this. Main points are that the number of new homes is being reduced from 877 to 867. OK, not much change there, but.... "A reduction in the number of affordable homes from 270 (35% by habitable room) to 77 (12% by habitable room)" That's a 72% reduction in the number of affordable homes. I don't know a lot about this kind of thing, but it seems that just 77 affordable homes in a development of 867 is a massive pee-take in an area where a 1-bed flat is £400K+ if it isn't "affordable." If you're interested, the application can be viewed at https://planning.southwark.gov.uk/online-applications/ ref 24/AP/2074 and there's a lot of objections to the reduction in affordable homes. The drop-in sessions are Weds 26th Feb (Peckham Library) and Mon 3rd March (All Saints Church) at 3pm. Full details attached. 24_AP_2074-FILE_COPY_-_NEIGHBOUR_NOTIFICATION_LIST-4005193.pdf
- VW badge theft in ED - advice on next steps

  I noticed 4 gone in a short stretch of Bellenden Road alone this weekend. I had no idea it was to do with the tech and thought that it was a retro Beastie Boys thing. Showing my age. Sorry I can only find a Facebook link if you are too young to remember this: https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=578367166664170 Totally agree that it's a bad design flaw, and I bet the actual cost of the parts to VW is minimal so they could easily cough up some of the replacement costs. It's depressing that someone can go along a street popping these things off cars with very little worry about being prosecuted.
