various net curtains, some new and unusued (Cookridge LS16)
Gifted
We are moving house and I just found these in a suitcase. Some were new and never put up and others had been used, but were too good not to keep. I had forgotten about them, but there are blinds in our new house and we won't need them. Most were for large windows, but can easily be shortened and reduced in width. Ignore the creases... as I said, they had been stored in a suitcase for a few years.

Light panel on book page (Cookridge LS16)
Gifted
We were given two of this for Christmas. It seems a battery needs to be inserted and then the light panel is put over the page to be read in the dark. New and unused.

Cushioned kneeling pad for gardening / DIY in house (Cookridge LS16)

Another Christmas present we won't be using. It's a cushion with material on one side and plastic (for ground) on the other.

Folding seat for resting when standing is too much (Cookridge LS16)
Gifted
This folding chair, which doubles as a walking aid, was used only a handful of times. It's excellent when you need to sit down and rest after standing (or walking) just a little too much. Also great to use in the kitchen, etc. when working sitting down is easier than standing up.

Book - The Colosseum (Cookridge LS16)
Gifted
I got it second hand some years ago. Although not new, makes interesting reading (lots of photos, too)

Free:
New/Mint - Civilisation and Oxford History of Classical Art (Cookridge LS16)
Gifted
I bought the books years ago but never even opened them. Would make great Christmas presents, as they are new and unmarked.

Large DVD / CD case (Cookridge LS16)
Gifted
Can't remember how many DVDs/CDs fit in there, but it's a lot. We don't need it anymore as we have thinned out our DVDs.

Wearable blanket (new and unpacked) (Cookridge LS16)
Gifted
I got this for Christmas last year, but never wore it, nor opened the packet. I remember seeing a photo of it and it looked warm and cosy (it's just not my kind of thing), but should be great for this cold weather.

large piece of gold curtain material (Cookridge LS16)
Gifted
I had this left over and kept it in a suitcase for some years (in case I wanted it again). The piece on the left is folded.

Ladies gloves, new and never worn (Cookridge LS16)
Gifted
I bought these to wear when I'm stargazing at night and sit outside. But then found others more suitable for that. I never wore them. I would think they were medium to large size

Boxes for moving house (Cookridge LS16)
Received
I have a few hundred books and need boxes that are strong, but also not too big for my books. (If too big, the box will be too heavy to lift). A kind Freegler has kindly given me a lot of boxes already, but I have also been buying more. Are there any Freeglers out there who have the kind of box I am looking for and which are no longer needed?

I think it's 100 mm wide, but I don't know how much there is length-wise (don't want to unroll it to measure).

Request:
Moving home - dozens of boxes (Cookridge LS16)
Received
I've got a few hundred books; boxes I need can't be too big (otherwise the box will be too heavy), but should not be shoebox size either. Does anyone have boxes left from either decent size Amazon / etc. deliveries or their own move?

Complete course material for Open University Course SD805 (Cookridge LS16)
Expired
This is for an MSc in Psychology. The module was 'Issues in Brain and Behaviour'. I took it in 2007 and kept the material. The two options given were on 'Neural Ageing' and on 'Addiction'. The various papers fill a box file. Due to house move I have to thin out books and papers. It seems a shame to throw it away. There is a lot of fascinating reading there if anyone is interested.
