Old Toshiba laptop faulty (Ruddington NG11)
I have a very old Toshiba laptop that needs a new home. It dates to the early 2000’s and runs windows XP. It comes with the system recovery CDs and interchangeable CD and floppy disk drives. The battery is included, although it’s capacity is very much diminished. There is no power supply. It is faulty and will not power up or turn on. The case has numerous scuff scrapes and a broken piece on the back. The hard drive has been wiped. Probably best suited to a collector so I thought I would offer it up before it goes to the tip. To be collected from Ruddington.

hairpin chairs (Castle Donington DE74)
x2 light Elmwood chairs (x2 hairpin leg attachments and x2 back and base pieces that are the pieces of wood alone in the photos). I have tried to sand it and gone too close to the grain of the wood and tried to use Wood dye.this was not successful. If anyone knows what they’re doing and can up cycle or paint them including fixing the screws in the wood would be a shame for them to go to waste. Legs spray painted black also (were white) Some scratches as can be seen on pictures due to being moved, spray will fix this. Bought off Facebook marketplace and don’t go with furniture.
