@VillageLifeSW4 @CoolClapham Join us for a beautiful service of Lessons & Carols on Sunday 11 December @6.30pm! We'll travel in heart & mind to Bethlehem to hear good news of God’s love & celebrate with #scripture & #singing. Stay on for mince pies, mulled wine & Christmas cheer
First-time buyers could save up to £6,250, because they will now be exempt from stamp duty on the first £425,000. The purchase price at which they can take advantage of this relief has been raised too, from £500,000 to £625,000.

I got two keys cut at Treohan’s on Wednesday. I paid £10.90. I go in to get another set cut today (same keys) and was charged £13.90. The difference today the owner served me. This is not the first time. I want to support local businesses but the owner just takes the proverbial

Really disappointed with recent purchases at All Greens. They charge premium prices for their products, which is fine, but for items with questionable freshness. We returned a melon last week that had mould on it (bought same day) and today’s watermelon was mushy and inedible.

The new greengrocers/deli on Abbeville Road - All Greens - is a rather wonderful addition to the village. Amazing selection of high end and well curated products to choose from. Their tomato selection was my particular favourite! Well worth a drop in.

@VillageLifeSW4 @CoolClapham @claphammums This Palm Sunday we were joined by a donkey as we processed down Abbeville Road. As we recreated Jesus' journey into Jerusalem on the back of this creature we remember his message of love, acceptance & rebirth. #Passion #PalmSunday #Lent
