Computer speakers (Sandford, near Crediton EX17)
A pair of powered speakers from the British computer brand "dan" from about 1995. Believed to be fully working as speakers, but may be the amplifier function is broken. They come apart so it should be fairly straightforward to fault-find & repair, at least as a pair of speakers. 16 cm wide, 25 cm high, 16 cm deep.

Bamboo Garden Bench, Needs TLC (Lipson PL4)
- Could do with getting gone as soon as possible. - Bamboo Garden Bench in need of some tender loving care. This bench has seen better days to say the least but I think it is still sturdy enough to still be usable if not pretty. It's fairly lightweight so could be carried although it's a bit awkward to do so. I don't have any cushions for it and it's not super comfortable to sit on without them I imagine it's possible to purchase fitted cushions for it or just use standard cushions. Dimensions: Width 126cm Height 74cm Collection from PL4

Table Top From Extending Table (PL4)
The top parts taken from an extending table the two parts slot together but with the rest of the tables frame there's nothing currently to hold them in place.

Not in perfect condition (see photos for examples) the legs had unfortunately been ripped off prior to me finding it so there is damage to the bottom. Dimensions: L120cm x W90cm Collection from PL4 Greenbank.

RF cable (Sandford, near Crediton EX17)
Two lengths each 10m of RF cable as used by UK Smart Meters in areas of difficulty connecting to the network. Each length has female and male SMA connectors, so they can be joined together. Bought in order to test if a smart meter connection was possible in my location. It wasn't, though problem was eventually solved by using a better antenna.
