Free: Large sofa, slots together (Bramhall SK7) Amazingly my husband is finally ready to part with this massive brown L-shaped sofa. It slots together on a wooden frame so could easily be transported in a large car with the back seat down. I will take a photo of the bare frame for replication in your home. This sofa has plenty of life left in it, though slight fading on some of the backs of the cushions. There is also a couple of small holes in the corner seat cushion, but I've always covered them with other cushions! We are a pet free and smoke free home. If you are able to collect it and have lovely manners then please message me. Collection near Happy Valley in Bramhall.

Free: OLD Freeview recorder - needs new HDD (Chorlton M21) This is an old DigiFusion FVRT150 - look it up and you'll get an idea of how old it is. Its HDD has failed. You need an 80 - 120 IDE HDD replacement. You can get one from eBay for under £10. You'll also need a 12V/ 5A power supply. But read to the end of this post. Why you might want to do this: It's a Freeview "set-top" box that can pause/rewind the programme you're watching, and record for later viewing. It came with an 80GB 3.5" drive but I replaced it with a 2.5" 160GB laptop drive, which is quieter and uses less power. (The original power supply couldn't manage the demands of the 3.5" HDD.) The FVRT150 can only use 120GB, but that doesn't matter. I had to get an adapter to fit the 2.5" drive. I'll leave it in the machine. You can also do things like adjust the start and end time of the recording, so not limited to the scheduled times, and edit recordings you've made by trimming the start and end. We got a BT Youview box to replace the Digifusion and I was disappointed not to have those options. Why not: We stopped using it when whoever was providing the 14(!) day electronic programme guide killed the service and we were left with only the current day's programmes: that is you could tune to what is on now or set a programme later in the same day to record, but not further ahead than that. Shame. Also it's Freeview only - no internet link or catch-up. If you want to see the enthusiasm people had for these machines, look for the DigiFusion discussions on DigitalSpy. It would be a pity to scrap it if anyone could make use of it, but off to the tip if no response in a week. Collect from Chorlton M21
