Free: upholstery fabric (Epping CM16) Promised This was found in the loft when my daughter moved home. It was completely sealed in its original wrapping from the retailer. We just opened it at one end to see what colour it is. The roll is about 5 ft wide, and the label gives a length of 2.00 (metres, I presume). The colour is described as bronze. I would suggest it's a bit like rust - an orangey brown. Anyway, it's as new, and only 23 years old!

Request: Very large pot for a shrub (Epping CM16) Expired Our acer has fallen over and the pot has broken. I need to get a bigger one, so wondered if someone might have one spare - at least 18 inches diameter.

Free: Dyson pet hair attachment (Epping CM16) Gifted This came with our Dyson vacuum cleaner, but we've never used it. Apparently it's anti-tangle. Free to someone whose pet leaves hair all over the carpet!

Free: HP Envy 5446 all-in-one printer (Epping CM16) Gifted This has worked fine for several years, and still produces good quality printing. However, of late it keeps reporting a paper jam when there is no paper jam. I've tried all of the recommended solutions with occasional success. Maybe there is someone out there who would relish the challenge of sorting it out. I've been using the HP Instant Ink, which I have now cancelled; that means that the current cartridges will continue to print until June 19th, after which they will stop printing! After this it will take new HP or compatible cartridges or the new owner could sign up for Instant Ink.

Request: Cooker and microwave (Epping CM16) Expired I have a friend who was homeless, but the council has finally given him a studio bungalow in Debden, totally unfurnished. The following items would be much appreciated: Cooker, microwave. If you could help with either of these, that would be great.

Free: Flowerpots (Epping CM16) Expired This the result of accumulating pots over several years, over 50 of them. They are all plastic and of varying sizes from 3in upwards, and they will need a clean. Take all or some!

Free: Garden bench (Epping CM16) Gifted I received this from a Freegler a few days ago, but I have since acquired another, so don't need this one. This is a traditional style bench that needs a bit of help. It's basically sound, but the slat at the front needs sorting out. The support in the frame at one end has broken, so there is only half a hole. However, if it is fixed correctly at the other end, I think there may be enough at the left end for a nut and bolt to hold a new slat in place. Alternatively a new piece could be welded on to complete the hole. Not part of my skill set. Any takers?

Free: Hammock: advertising the film Mighty Joe Young (Epping CM16) Expired The film was made in 1998, so I guess we've had this in the loft for nearly 25 years! It must have been used at a Walt Disney promotional event. It's a perfectly good hammock - just needs two posts or trees the right distance apart, about 8 - 10 feet.
