Dog basket muzzle,size5 (brand new) (Edinburgh EH17)
An easy to adjust, secure plastic clips, brand new basket muzzle, size 5. (Sadly, it is too large for us.) Was only tried on once then sanitized. It is all black with stylish white visibility 'stitches' along the straps' edges. Forehead strap also included, safe and stylish muzzle. Large enough for allowing panting, good gap for reward treats, suitable for training too. The official description says: ''Eco Earth basket muzzle. Features a quick-release buckle for easy use and a durable TPR rubber basket that is sturdy; The reflective neck strap is adjustable for a custom fit and improved visibility. Size 5 Snout 3.9''/10 cm Recommended dog weight: 40-60 kg '' It is looking for a new canine :) Thanks.

Victorian Farm + Wartime Farm books (Edinburgh EH17)
VICTORIAN FARM (by BBC, 2009) - book depicting the series, with lots of colour photos and some recipes around A4 size, hardcover, smaller font size, 279 pages ''This historical documentary series finds archaeologists Alex Langlands and Peter Ginn and domestic historian Ruth Goodman on the Acton Scott estate, located in rural England and frozen in the Victorian era. The trio lives here for a year, using only Victorian-era tools and materials, such as those found scattered around the estate, to re-create everyday life during the late 1800s.'' WARTIME FARM (by BBC, 2012) - book depicting the series, with lots of colour photos and some recipes around A4 size, hardcover, regular to smaller font size, 249 pages ''BBC's turn-back-the-clock `Farm' series continue with this eight-part look at the efforts of historian Ruth Goodman and archaeologists Alex Langlands and Peter Ginn, who run Manor Farm as if it was during the Second World War. The programme focuses on all aspects of domestic and farming life of the period, with the team managing livestock, attempting to cultivate unused land, tackling new tools and technologies, and learning the basics of civil defence, while all the time confronting shortages. They face one of the biggest challenges ever seen in the history of the British countryside - what Winston Churchill called `the frontline of freedom'. '' Very cool books, looking for loving new home or homes :) Thanks a lot, Lillum

Vintage/retro glass display cabinet 3 shelves (fragile :) (Gilmerton EH17)
Looking for a caring new home is this vintage/retro plywood frame and glass shelves + glass sides display cabinet. Obviously, a fragile transport matter so please apply if you can transport it in one piece :) Suitable for collecting it with a car with cushioning for the cabinet (e.g. blankets, layered wrapping paper, bubble wrap or a combination of these). It has altogether three shelves/levels, the frame is a sort of beige plastic-coated plywood and all the two shelves and all sides except the back are glass. The back of the cabinet has a large mirror attached to it so whatever you place on the three storage levels will reflect beautifully. There are some pink and gold floral patterns on the two front sliding cabinet doors that reflect as well. Note: this furniture is not compatible with collision prone folks or with lively kids and pets! :) No cracks in any of the glass walls so far though, it's been well looked after. (Probably it would be easy to fix it up with a set of lights to highlight what is stored inside.) Photos attached if you use them. Dimensions: overall height 95 cm overall width 105 cm shelves width 98 cm first level starts at 25 cm space under the cabinet is 23 cm high top shelf is at 71 cm height the depth of the cabinet's top surface is 30 cm the depth of each storage level is 25 cm I cannot help with lifting it to your car but I can cheer you on! :) Good news: no floor levels to climb for the collection. I can also be very flexible with day/times for this as it has to go now. Thank you, Lili
