Free: Fake leather belt (Sheddingdean RH15) 108cm plus long dangly tassels. It doesn't have a buckle, you'd have to tie it, it's really just for decoration, but it's quite cool!

4d

Free: Large cork noticeboard (Sheddingdean RH15) 60cm x 91cm. Needs to be wall-mounted. I'll even leave some pins in it!

4d

Free: Xerox transparencies (Sheddingdean RH15) Expired Box of 100. Acetate sheets with paper backing, the kind we used to use in photocopiers to produce visual aids for overhead projectors! Schools probably don't use these any more but I wondered if they might be useful for craft projects.

123d

Free: Torch (Sheddingdean RH15) Expired 6.5ins long, takes two size C batteries, I think. I HAVE NO IDEA IF IT WORKS! Sorry, but it's very old and hasn't been used in a long time. I don't have any of the right size batteries, it just seems a shame to put the torch in landfill if there's a possibility it might be useful to someone.

Request: Pallet breaker (Sheddingdean RH15) Expired I'm really getting into making stuff out of pallets and a breaker would make the job a lot easier, if anyone has one they no longer need.

Request: Yacht varnish (Sheddingdean RH15) Expired I went on a workshop to make a chair from a wooden pallet and I've stained it and would like to varnish it. If anyone has a half or quarter of a tin of yacht varnish, I'd be very grateful. Thanks in advance.

Free: Music centre (Sheddingdean RH15) Expired Old (probably 30yrs) Alba music centre, comprising record deck, radio tuner, twin cassette deck and CD player (not working). It hasn't been used for a very long time but I wondered if it might be of use for parts.

Free: Garden trolley - no wheels (Sheddingdean RH15) Gifted This originally my friend's and it had an axle and wheels and was used to carry garden rubbish when tidying up the garden. However, the axle broke so for years I've been using it filled with soil for growing tomatoes in. If you have an axle and a pair of wheels it could be used for its original purpose or else you could use it as I did, as a tub for plants. It will be going to the dump on Tuesday if not given away here.
