Free: New Scientist Magazines (Eccleshill BD2) I have about 30 recent copies of the New Scientist magazine to offer. I've read and enjoyed them all, although some of the content is a bit over my head! Just wondered if there is a freegler out there who would also enjoy them? I'd like them to go where they will be used. Might suit someone teaching A Level science, or an A level science student? Or someone with a general interest in science? They contain loads of articles of various lengths on a broad range of modern scientific topics. Please get in touch if these pique your interest. Or if you have any suggestions about where they could be donated, and be useful. Collection only. Please leave a contact number if possible. Thanks for reading.

Free: Slide projector with screen (Eccleshill BD2) Gifted This is a very old machine, which hasn't been used for years, but there may be someone interested in taking it to play around with? The machine is a Prinz Consort, and I have seen similar on FB, so it's likely to be of interest to someone. The screen is a Lumenta Cristall - again it's not been out of the box for many years, but we used (as most families who took up photography using slides) to have family slide shows fairly regularly in days gone by, so there are memories. If you think you're interested, or know of someone/somewhere that might be, then please get in touch with your details. It's a very heavy machine, so it's collection only. NB. The plug appears to be a VERY old round three-pin, so you would need some kind of adapter to use a modern plug socket. Thanks for reading.
