...like tomorrow morning early, I rack my brain to work out the best way
to
get there by public transport from Balham. What do you reckon is the
best/fastest/least schlepping-your-case-around route? Every time I chose
one
way, I wish I'd gone another!


I have the same problem everytime I try to get there from Tooting and have
concluded that a taxi firm that specialises in fast routes to airports is by
far the most convenient way.

It's almost impossible to get from SW London to Heathrow on public transport
without going into Central London. If you don't want to pay for the Heathrow
Express, your best bet is probably:

Train to Victoria,
District to Barons Court
Picc. to Heathrow
