Jigsaw puzzles (Emscote CV34)
Gifted
I would normally have donated these back to the tip shop but there are pieces missing (see pictures) or the box is a bit too shabby for gifting. They're still perfectly nice puzzles to pass the time on a wet Sunday afternoon.

Shower controls (Emscote CV34)
Gifted
Not sure of the technical term but there’s a polished chrome plate that goes on the wall and two square control knobs; one for the flow and one for the temperature. They’re unused but without any other fittings or instructions.

Dining chairs project (Emscote CV34)
Gifted
4 dining chairs, previously painted. Most of the prep has been done ready to give them a new look. Also included are 4 cut-to-size pieces of foam for the seat pads. I was going to give them a fresh coat of paint and some new fabric but I need them out of the way.

Polycarbonate sheet various sizes (Emscote CV34)

Various bits of clear and double walled polycarbonate sheeting left over from a project. Definitely enough to make a small cold frame or something similar.

Apple tree in a pot (Emscote CV34)
Gifted
Is there a school or community project or similar that would like to grow an apple tree? I got it for a bargain price but picked up the apple by mistake instead of the pear that I actually wanted. I could take it back but I'd rather donate it if possible.

Old metal dustbin (Emscote CV34)

Can anyone make use of this before I put it out for the scrap metal collector? Lid is a tight fit.

Large gas barbecue (Emscote CV34)
Expired
Needs a good clean and its trolley needs renovating as it’s been stored outside, although under cover. It’s very heavy so will probably require 2 people and a van.

240v to 110v site transformer (Emscote CV34)
Expired
Does anyone have a transformer for use with 110v power tools (the kind of thing used on building sites) that they no longer have use for please? I picked up a bargain saw but foolishly didn't register that it has a round yellow plug so now I have a saw that I can't use! Thank you freeglers.

Comfy wing-back chair (Emscote CV34)
Gifted
Really solid, comfortable chair. I acquired it as an upholstery project but it's too big and heavy for me to get it upstairs where I need it to go so it's been in my hallway for months! It's got some fading and either cat or puppy scratches, hence the upholstery idea.

Request:
Model Nimrod Aeroplane (Emscote CV34)
Expired
Does anyone have an Airfix model or similar, built or still in kit form, of a BAE Nimrod? Or has anyone seen one in a charity shop perhaps? My brother's young grandson desperately wants one like Grandpa used to fly in so if you have one in a loft gathering dust, please let me know! Thank you for reading

Car seat (Emscote CV34)
Gifted
Previously used occasionally as emergency Nana back-up. It fits in the car using the seat belts. In good condition but the cover could do with a wash as it's been gathering dust in a cupboard for a few years.

Booster seat (Emscote CV34)
Gifted
As the yougest grandchild is now 11 this hasn't been used for a few years. It was used once a week in the car and occasionally at the dining table so it's in good condition but the cover could probably do with a wash.

Large stuffed tiger shark toy (Emscote CV34)
Gifted
Rejected by the charity shop because of his 'wounded' fin! Not sure what he's stuffed with but he's a bit rustly, like a bean bag, but not squishy. From the tip of his nose to the tip of his tail he's about three feet long. Please don't let him end up in landfill!

child's rocking caterpillar toy (Emscote CV34)
Gifted
Perhaps suitable for a child minder/nursery? Because he's been cleaned up and repaired the charity shop wouldn't take him. I removed his cover, washed it, gave him a new antenna to replace the torn one then stitched him back together. It seems such a shame to just throw him into landfill just because he's had a bit of TLC.

Tap bits, unused (Emscote CV34)
Gifted
Not being a plumber I don’t really know how to describe these other than bits of taps. They might be useful for replacing broken bits? The tops are about 5cm/2”
