Request: Jars (Cefnsuran Farm LD7) Started making chutney as Christmas gifts, and realised that I must have had a clear out of jars. I'm sure I used to have dozens! Can anyone local help me out with a few? I don't need many - just 5 or 6, please.

Free: Strawberry runners (Cefnsuran Farm LD7) Withdrawn Small rooted runners from my strawberry plants. I'm tidying up my strawberry patch, and will have at least two dozen healthy little baby plants that will be composted if nobody wants them 😕 I know it's late in the season, but it's so mild I reckon they'd take if planted straight away, and give a crop next year. Collection from one-and-a-half miles outside Llangunllo.

17d

Free: Icing piping nozzles (Cefnsuran Farm LD7) A variety of piping nozzles for fancy cake decorating or swirling icing on cup cakes. Some are vintage (dating back to my childhood in the 60s and very likely beyond) and I inherited them without any of the necessary skills for making best use of them. I do hope someone may find them worthwhile. Contactless collection from one-and-a-half miles outside Llangunllo NOT Cefn Suran

56d

Free: Eight vases (Cefnsuran Farm LD7) Gifted EDIT FOUR have been promised so FOUR REMAINING Small heavy bottomed glass vases, not all perfect as some have small chops on the rim. About 8inches /20cm tall. Contactless collection from one-and-a-half miles outside Llangunllo NOT Cefn Suran. If you want fewer than 8 I could split them.

64d

Request: Plastic lidded containers (Cefnsuran Farm LD7) EDIT: I have been gifted a dozen or so, but would happily re-home more. As in the photo - does anyone have a great stash of these takeaway-type containers that they might let go? I find them a perfect size for freezing food, but rarely come across them. Or, if you are a regular takeaway consumer, you might consider saving them for me. Happy to collect from Knighton, Presteigne, Craven Arms and nearby.

68d

Request: Spray paint (Cefnsuran Farm LD7) I have this ugly but useful and functional metal cabinet. It's a bit scratched and battered . I've been thinking how much nicer it would look with a coat of paint, ideally grey, blue, silver, but whatever - does anyone have a can - or part of one - cluttering their workshop / cupboard? Thought it might be worth an ask. Or brilliant (inexpensive) suggestions for up cycling also welcome.

70d

Free: Strawberry runners (Cefnsuran Farm LD7) Withdrawn Bundle of about 15 strawberry runners, bare-rooted. Contactless collection from one-and-a-half miles outside Llangunllo NOT Cefn Suran. Likely to be more than one bundle, so don't be discouraged if you see that someone has already replied. They will needs to be planted/potted very soon.

73d

Free: Ramekins (Cefnsuran Farm LD7) Gifted Assorted glass and china ramekins and similar. Few matching. Contactless collection from one-and-a-half miles outside Llangunllo NOT Cefn Suran.

Free: Small electric fan heater (Cefnsuran Farm LD7) Gifted Working order. Contactless collection from one-and-a-half miles outside Llangunllo NOT Cefn Suran.

79d

Free: Tea lights and glass holders (Cefnsuran Farm LD7) Gifted Box of new and part-used tea lights and a fair few tea light holders made of heavy glass. At least a dozen, I should think, possibly more. To go as a lot, please. Contactless collection from one-and-a-half miles outside Llangunllo NOT Cefn Suran.

79d

Free: Wicker laundry basket (Cefnsuran Farm LD7) Gifted Removeable cotton liner has seen better days, but otherwise in pretty good nick. Contactless collection from one-and-a-half miles outside Llangunllo NOT Cefn Suran

80d

Free: Small freezer (Cefnsuran Farm LD7) Gifted Basic three drawer freezer, will be emptied shortly. One drawer was broken and has been mended but that does not affect use. Collection from one-and-a-half miles outside Llangunllo NOT Cefn Suran.

87d

Free: Deep fat fryer (Cefnsuran Farm LD7) Gifted Traditional type deep fat fryer, not top of the range but entirely functional. We've decided to stop using it, and I was going to take it to the tip on our next visit - but maybe a chip lover would find it useful. I'll empty it but I won't promise to clean it. Contactless collection from one-and-a-half miles outside Llangunllo, NOT Cefn Suran.

87d

Free: Vinyl flooring (Cefnsuran Farm LD7) Expired This is about to be lifted from my kitchen next week commencing 15th July. It's a very neutral grey/beige colour, non-slip finish. The largest whole area is likely to be a maximum of 2.7 m x 2.5 m (9fert x 8feet) but there are lots of cut in areas that are smaller. It hasn't really worked well for me as a kitchen floor; the non-slip means it holds on to the sort of muddy-pet-kitchen-spills-dirt that gets walked in to my place, and it is apt to stain. I think it would work better in an area with less traffic such as a bathroom or utility. I'm hoping it comes out reasonably intact and may be of use to someone else. Collection from one-and-a-half miles outside Llangunllo NOT Cefn Suran.

Free: Wi-fi 4G router (Cefnsuran Farm LD7) Gifted This served us well for several years, but we now have something even more marvellous mounted on the roof. If you are in an area with ropey broadband, but can get a mobile signal this works well as an alternative. It needs to have a data-only SIM fitted, then you're good to go. Can also have ethernet cables attached if possible - depends on where the router is sited in relation to your computer.

Request: Crumpet rings (Cefnsuran Farm LD7) Expired Anyone have any of these that they no longer want? I rather fancy experimenting making crumpets, but the cost of crumpet rings is quite high - especially since I may make them only once if the experiment is a failure!

186d

Free: Electric kettle (Cefnsuran Farm LD7) Gifted Working order, just descaled it, we thought it was tripping our electrics and bought a new one, but the culprit turned out to be the toaster, and this kettle is blameless. Not perfect condition - there is a pale tea stain on the lid and some other age-related discolouration of the plastic but pretty good.

192d

Free: Raspberry canes (Cefnsuran Farm LD7) Gifted LAST CALL - there ended up being many more than just two bags. But I have just about finished digging them out where they colonised when my back was turned. And the hot weather isn't kind to shallow rooted plants in plastic sacks. 2 bags of autumn fruiting raspberry canes, as dug. At least 15 canes in each bag, probably more. Contactless collection from one-and-a-half miles outside Llangunllo NOT Cefn Suran. They would like to be back in the ground very quickly, if possible. If you want to collect at the weekend, I'll almost certainly be digging out more, just let me know when you reply.

206d

Free: Strawberry plants (Cefnsuran Farm LD7) Expired Last few bare rooted strawberry plants recently dug up. Not sure on variety, probably a mixture of one and two year old plants. Contactless collection from one-and-a-half miles outside Llangunllo NOT Cefn Suran.

217d

Request: Ethernet cable (Cefnsuran Farm LD7) Expired My computer thinks my ethernet cable is faulty. I'm not convinced, and think the problem lies elsewhere, but does anyone have a spare functional ethernet cable I could try, please? It needs to be about 2-3 metres long.

219d

Free: Strawberry plants (Cefnsuran Farm LD7) Gifted Last call on strawberry plants! I reckon there will be enough for three bags with 20+ plants in each, so fair shares for all. They're all in a big plastic trug at the moment, I haven't counted them. Bare rooted, mixture of two and one year old plants, can't remember variety, sorry. Contactless collection from one-and-a-half miles outside Llangunllo NOT Cefn Suran.

220d

Free: Strawberry plants (Cefnsuran Farm LD7) Gifted Bag of approximately 20 strawberry plants at least, bare rooted, just dug up, probably a mixture of one and two year old plants. No idea what variety, sorry. Think they crop in June/July as far as I can recall. Have got two bags available. They would be happy to get their roots into soil or compost soon. Contactless collection from one-and-a-half miles outside Llangunllo NOT Cefn Suran.

224d

Free: Little rhubarb plant (Cefnsuran Farm LD7) Expired I moved a rhubarb plant last year, as I had two too close together. It's settled fine into its new place, but also left a chunk of itself behind. As you can see it is already being overshadowed by the bigger plant. It would need to be nurtured this year, then you could probably start cropping it next season. Would be nice if you were prepared to excavate it yourself, but I can have another go at digging it out completely if you would prefer. Collection from one-and-a-half miles outside Llangunllo NOT Cefn Suran.

236d

Free: Chilli (Cefnsuran Farm LD7) Gifted A few rather leggy but otherwise healthy chilli pepper seedlings. A few cayenne, lots more jalapenos. Collection from one-and-a-half miles outside Llangunllo NOT Cefn Suran

238d

Free: Brassica seedlings (Cefnsuran Farm LD7) Gifted EDITED to add - I've split into two bunches, it's still an enormous number of seedlings if they were all to survive. They desperately needing potting on! I'm taking about a dozen of each today, the rest are spares for someone or compost. There is Early purple sprouting Nero de cavola kale All year round cauliflower Kohl rabi purple delicacy Sutherland lake Brussels Evesham special Think that's all. Collection from one-and-a-half miles outside Llangunllo NOT Cefn Suran.

244d

Free: Heater (Cefnsuran Farm LD7) Gifted In great working condition - I just switched it on, and it got hot very quickly. Ideal for the cold snap we've been promised for Easter! Has been stored in somewhat dusty but dry space, so could do with a clean. Has various heat settings and a timer function (though I have not tested the timer). Rolls on castors. Contactless collection from one-and-a-half miles outside Llangunllo NOT Cefn Suran. Dimensions (approximate) height 66cm / 26", width 42cm / 16", depth 17cm / 7".

248d

Free: Cat bed (Cefnsuran Farm LD7) Expired Used, furry cat bed with removable cushion. Considering how extremely rarely my cats have used this, surprisingly hairy. Contactless collection from one-and-a-half miles outside Llangunllo (NOT Cefn Suran).

254d

Free: Coffee table (Cefnsuran Farm LD7) Expired Unremarkable, not in especially good nick but completely functional, approx 35 inches 89 cm long, 16 inches 41cm cm wide , 16 inches tall. Collection from about 1 and a half miles outside Llangunllo (NOT Cefn Suran)

265d

Free: Door curtain rail (Cefnsuran Farm LD7) Gifted The sort that raises and moves the curtain as the door is opened - see photos for appearance and dimensions. Contactless collection from one-and-a-half miles outside Llangunllo NOT Cefn Suran

Free: Yoghurt maker (Cefnsuran Farm LD7) Gifted As per photos. I bought this second hand, it's not been used by me, but seems all present and correct. Collection from one and a half miles outside Llangunllo, ( NOT Cefn Suran)
