Free: Poorly stag horn fern (Prestonfield EH16) These two pups (?) got knocked off an existing plant which was in soil rather than on wood. I tried potting with compost and moss but they don’t seem to have taken, the leaves are wilting, and I don’t have time to try anything else. If anybody has the expertise to look after properly you’d be welcome to them.

Free: Old Venicci pram (Prestonfield EH16) Gifted This was given to us but we didn’t end up using it really. It’s quite old with wear and big but robust with good functionality, good on rough terrain. Offering in case useful to someone otherwise it will go to the tip. There’s a bassinet too.

Free: Baby carrier (Prestonfield EH16) Gifted This was passed on to us but we didn’t use it as already had one. Please note it came from a smoking household, I have given it a quick wash in the machine but it still has a bit of a smoky smell, not sure if it will come out with further washes. If you’d like it please say when you can collect, any time is fine as I can leave outside.
