jo - nice area but very pricey around clapham! Just be aware that if you move a bit further out you get lots more for your money. We pay the same here for a 3 double bed flat as DH's colleague pays for one room in a shared house in Putney!
DH now up and once he's out of the shower I'll have one then head into town. Flying will be later!Mum to gorgeous baby boy born Sept 2010:j0 -

Thanks Rach, I know that its more expensive but I dont really know anywhere else and would like to be as close to my aunt and uncle as I can. The areas that Im looking at are 10-15 minutes from her, but away from the common. If you have any advice on areas I should look at, can you PM me please with them and Ill have a look. Thanks again xxSometimes lurking, sometimes posting, but always flying
