Request: BBC micro floppy disk/s (Ingleton LA6) I'm repairing an old BBC micro for a friend. It has a floppy drive (5 1/2") but I don't have a disk to test it with. Does anyone have any of these lying around? Failing that, does anyone have a blank 5 1/2" floppy?

Free: Shark's fin melon (Ingleton LA6) We were given this by my cousin who had grown it. It can be used in Chinese soup recipes because it is similar to shark's fin (apparently). Onion for scale!

Free: Long cardboard box (Ingleton LA6) Expired A good sturdy double-walled cardboard box about 110 x 19 x 13 cm. Seems a shame to put it in the recycling. Hope someone can make use of it.

Free: Canon camera tele- and wide angle converters (Ingleton LA6) Gifted I used to use these with an old Canon compact camera. I hardly had chance to use them before I lost the camera. I don't have the heart to throw them away, so I hope someone can find a use for them. They have 52mm threads so they might work with other cameras.

Free: Rejs dual pull-out kitchen bin (High Bentham LA2) Gifted With a 10 l and 20 l bin. Screws into a kitchen cabinet and has a soft close mechanism.
