Free: Toy cot (Old Coulsdon CR5) Expired 158d - Toy cot for teddies or dolls. Very good condition. Just a couple of small scuff marks.

Free: Used red roof tiles - not broken (Old Coulsdon CR5) Expired 158d - Probably about 25 of them. Feels bad to take them to the tip. Ideal for roof repairs as they are already weathered so won't stand out. Please let me know if you can use them.

Free: Toy cradle and small desk (Old Coulsdon CR5) Gifted 170d - The desk top is 60 x 40cm - this is not very big if you needed to work on a computer as well but great if you just have a small space. It is 76cm high so the height is fine for an adult. It has a drawer underneath. It is light if you needed to move it around. The toy cradle measures 54cm x 34cm (30cm high). Perfect for teddies and dolls. It has a couple of small scuff marks on it but otherwise in great condition. Please let me know if you are interested. I am in most days/evenings.

Free: Child's bike (Old Coulsdon CR5) Gifted 202d - Kid's bike. Nothing wrong with it as far as I know. Suitable for a child of 7-10 years old. Please let me know when you could pick up, preferably over weekend but Monday also good. Based in Old Coulsdon (we are not inside the ULEZ, in case that's an issue).

Free: Cot bumper (part), wool blanket and towels (Old Coulsdon CR5) Expired 1y - The cot bumper - only three parts as daughter wants to keep one section. Very cute pattern of animals. Good condition although it has been used for four children so showing that it has been washed many times. The parts which I am offering are: one section 4ft long, two sections about 2ft long. Also a valance which is to fit a cot bed about 4ft 2 by 2ft. Obviously, cot bumpers are not recommended for babies as they can overheat, but nice for toddlers. Ikea pure wool blanket, large single. Dry clean only. Only ever used as a throw. Three cream bath towels. These are well-used but in good condition and only replaced because of a change of colour scheme. Everything has been in the attic for a long time so needs a quick wash/airing to freshen up. Please let me know if you want any/all of these items.

Free: Kingsize duvet 12 tog synthetic filling (Old Coulsdon CR5) Gifted 1y - This has been in our attic for a few years but it was cleaned just before I packed it up. Please let me know if you would like it. It's in good condition. Free: Large child's blackboard and Ikea wall light (Old Coulsdon CR5) Gifted 1y - Blackboard on one side, white board on the other. It is about 110cm high when it is set up. Unfortunately, my daughter wrote all over the wooden frame with a marker pen. It's just quotes from her favourite book at the time so nothing offensive. I am sure that paint would cover it. The boards are about 40cm x 50cm. The Ikea wall light still worked last year when we took it down. Please let me know if you would like either/both.

Free: Britax Stage 1/2/3 car seat (Old Coulsdon CR5) Gifted 1y - Getting rid of daughter's car seat as she has now outgrown it (she is 9). I can guarantee it has never been in an accident.

Thank you Free: University level Economics books (Old Coulsdon CR5) Expired 1y - A dozen books, all in decent condition, from Economics degree.

I am having a clear out so don't mind what anyone wants to use them for - decoration, an alternative to the internet, chop them up for an art project, whatever. They are really heavy (almost 2kg each!) so please only ask for them if you can pick them up with a car. Thanks.

Free: Height adjustable table on castors (Old Coulsdon CR5) Gifted 1y - Lightweight, easy to assemble. You can choose what height to set it up at - you cannot adjust it while it is set up. Good for getting your laptop/sewing/meal close to you when you are seated. Can be easily rolled out of the way when you are finished. It is about 100cm across. Perfect for people with mobility problems.

Free: Large recliner armchair (Old Coulsdon CR5) Gifted 1y - Super-comfy recliner in dark blue fake leather. It's big enough for an adult and a child to snuggle up. It is about 21 years old so showing some signs of wear but still loads of years left. There is one part of the fabric on the footrest that has come away but could be fixed with a staple gun. There is a manufacturer's warning on the chair saying you should not let children play with the recliner mechanism - think it would depend on your child's personality - our kids never had any problems but were quite careful children. The footrest often pops up when you sit down so you do have to be careful, especially if you have small children or people with mobility problems, or you are carrying a hot drink. We did try to get it fixed but the problem just came back again. Small bits of green upholstery foam do come off underneath the chair from time to time but they just hoover up and it doesn't seem to affect the chair. The chair measures approximately: width 105cm, depth 84cm and height 90cm. It is heavy so would need two strong people to move it and probably a van. Please only get in touch if you are genuinely interested and can make arrangements to pick it up.
