Hi, thanks for the update. What happened to Nigel who used to run the Balham Bowls Club quiz? The Grove prize has always been the pot. On a memorable night about 18 months ago we won just under £300!

Pub Quizzes in Balham

Posted by Dave Cross on March 18, 2011 at 1:25pm 0 Comments

I like a good pub quiz and in Balham, there are currently plenty to choose from. Here are the ones I've tried. Entry to all of these is £2 per person and they all have a limit of six people to a team (although at most of them, teams over that number are allowed but you lose a point for each extra person). They all start at 8:00pm.

The Balham Tup

Posted by Dave Cross on February 2, 2010 at 9:23am 1 Comment

And then, a few months ago I met a friend who I hadn't been in touch with for years and he invited me to go along to the Tup on Sunday night for their pub quiz. My wife and I went along that week, enjoyed it and for the last two or three months we've been regulars there on a Sunday night. We've even won the quiz three or four times.

Parent and Toddler groups on Tooting Common

Parent and Toddler Group



In a quiet, relaxed environment with soft colours and natural materials children play freely with simple wooden toys, handmade rag dolls, play cloths and nature's toys like conkers, shells and pinecones. There is a seasonal craft or activity, e.g drawing with pure beeswax crayons, then tidying-up time is followed by a wholesome organic snack and the session ends with ring time, singing seasonal songs.

Parents and children from newborn to three and a half… Continue

X Crossing

Posted by Dave Cross on November 2, 2009 at 12:55pm 4 Comments

If all you had to go by was today's press coverage (which seems to be largely reprinted from the official press release) then you might well find it easy to believe that Oxford Circus was the first place in London to get a diagonal crossing. You might even be convinced by the line that this new crossing was inspired by… Continue
