Re: Wandsworth residents can now enjoy free phone calls and mega-fast wi-fi from new network of multi-media hubs

I looked at one last night. To connect to the wifi you have to accept the following terms, which I was not willing to do! https://s14.postimg.cc/yyei5lri9/Capture.jpg "I understand and consent that my personal data may be transferred, stored and processed outside of the EEA." So I guess I won't be u...

Re: What DO we want on Northcote Road???

Draft House have just been taken over by Brew Dog, so expect the one on Northcote Road will change to a Brew Dog. Although there is already one on Battersea Rise, so maybe they won't keep both sites.

Re: Recommendation for chinese t/a please!

Agree there is a dearth of really good Chinese around here and Good Earth is expensive. Bayee Village in Wimbledon is worth a look if you're in SW19. Hadn't heard of Camile before, but looking at their site I see they're opening new branches in Battersea and Clapham to add to the one in Tooting Bec,...

Re: Star Wars - The Last Jedi

It's very long - over 2.5 hours, plus trailers and ads! Also worth taking into account.

Re: What shall I buy my wife for Christmas?

A weekend away - without kids if you have them - is always a winner! Maybe somewhere with a nice spa in January, which is always a dreary month.

Re: Alarming personal safety incident in Balham

Worrying if that has been reported more than once! I wonder if CCTV on the high street captured anything.

I think in a similar situation the best plan is to offer to or just call an ambulance, wait with them in a busy public place and then let the professionals handle it.

Re: Awful gym moment

How rude! I'd just ignore him if you see him again. I am convinced that whatever his problem it is nothing to do with you or your appearance or behaviour, so try not to take it to heart.

Re: Free cat food!

I'm very sorry for your loss. How kind that you want to pass it on. I checked and unfortunately Battersea Dogs & Cats Home don't take food donations. There's a Cats Protection shelter in Mitcham that would be glad to take it - http://www.mitcham.cats.org.uk/mitcham/contact-us Or perhaps a local food...
