Free: 7" Android Tablet pre-programmed with EPOS. No Password (Stroud GL5) Gifted 23d - 7" (diagonal) tablet with old version of Android, and pre-programmed with EPOS software, but I don't have any login information. I am not sure if it can be used as a standard tablet - you would need to circumvent the boot-up of the Epos software, but somebody may be able to do it. At least it comes with a working AC adaptor, which may be of use.

Free: 3M Touchscreen membrane for 15" monitor, with I/f (Stroud GL5) Gifted 28d - Bought this many moons ago, but never got round to using it. It's basically a touch sensitive piece of clear glass to fit on a 15" monitor. It comes with the interface card, but you will need a special cable from the i/f card to a serial port. Comes with (very brief) instructions and software CD.

Free: Headsets with mikes - big box of them, USB and 3.5mm jacks (Stroud GL5) Withdrawn 34d - There must be 30+ units in this box. Mainly Plantronics. They came from the closure of an IT company. Unfortunately, the clearance agents just threw them all in a box. I have sorted a few out which I have already Freegled, but it is a nightmare trying to untangle them. TBH a fair few of them look to be in well used condition, but if you have the perseverance, I am sure that some workers and spares could be extracted from this rat's nest of cabling.

Came from an office clearance, so probably works, if you have the PSU.

Free: 2 Logitech USB mice - 1 black, 1 grey (Stroud GL5) Gifted 47d - Good condition, working order.

Request: Potato Ricer (Stroud GL5) Received 48d - I am tempted to buy one, but I suspect they are the sort of item that gets used once or twice, and is then condemned to sit at the back of a cupboard, waiting for a clear-out. So if anyone has one that is languishing, unused, I would be glad of it. Request: Nintendo Wii system (Stroud GL5) Withdrawn 53d - Looking for a Nintendo Wii system with remote which will run the Sports disk - Tennis etc. If anyone has a unit they are not using any more, I would be grateful.

Free: Dell KB7120W Bluetooth keyboard for Windows (Stroud GL5) Gifted 84d - Dell KB7120W Bluetooth keyboard for Windows. All working EXCEPT spacebar needs to be hit dead-centre. I have tried fixing it, but failed. It is a good keyboard otherwise, and can, I believe, be connected to 3 different computers, and you can switch between them via a function key, but I have not used that feature.

Free: Fujitsu ScanSnap S1500M pass - through scanner (Stroud GL5) Expired 96d - I bought this a few years ago, knowing it had a fault, and intending to fix it, but never got round to it. Basically it is a duplex scanner, so it should scan both sides of a sheet. but the one of the glass lens covers has a crack in it, so you can only use it effectively as a simplex (one-sided scanner). It should work with Windows PC's and some earler versions of Mac OS, but you will have to download the ScanSnap manager from Fujitsu. Needs a standard USB 2.0 A-B printer-type cable.

Free: Flute Sheet music for Grades 1 & 2 pupils - Pub. ABRSM (Stroud GL5) Gifted 97d - ABRSM "Time Pieces for Flute - vol 1" for Students Grade 1 & 2. New, never used.

Free: Sturdy pasting table 160cm x 80cm x 4cm - legs removed. (Stroud GL5) Expired 103d - I bought this about 20 years ago, and it is in very good condition, but a few years ago we took off the legs to use it as a trestle table. This is not one of the lightweight, flimsy pasting tables that you often see, it is solid and rigid. We just don't have a use for it anymore.

Free: 7-day electric plug - programmable (Stroud GL5) Gifted 115d - New, never used. I bought this with a view to using it to switch a radiator on and off in the early hours. As soon as I had bought it, a friend recommended me to use "Smart Plugs". I have now gone in that direction, so this is surplus to requirements. Only bought a few months ago from Screwfix for about £12. I have mislaid the instructions but you can probably download them on-line, or worki ot out.

Free: 4-LED striplight for under-shelf use (Stroud GL5) Gifted 119d - Boxed, never used. Dialight 24v strip light for under-shelf use. One only. I think they were linked together to form lighting systems. See last photo for connector.
