Silver blind for uPVC door, clip in (Weetwood LS16)
Gifted
10 yrs old and from a kitchen, but in fair condition and not too dirty! Much loved and useful silver blind for back door. It clips in the gap where the glass is and may have been made to measure, so ? May not be of use to anyone. The blind sits in a white plastic frame, which measures on its outside approx 59cm x 194 cm. The glass in my door measures approx 54 x 186cm. It’s unlikely it will fit exactly into a door, but maybe it can still be used, ?

Purple and silver blinds (Weetwood LS16)
Gifted
10 years old, but really loved these! They have to go as no longer needed. They were made to measure, so unlikely anyone will want them or be able to use them. There are two x large and two x very small in length. See photos. Large are approx 140 cm drop (actual blind panels), and approx 145 cm wide. Small are approx 140cm drop and approx 28cm wide. Both sets are fixed by brackets to the baton above the window. I am about to take down and will save all screws and brackets etc. hopefully someone can make smthg of these blinds.

Very old Black and Decker CarVac Super (Weetwood LS16)
Gifted
Very old Black and Decker CarVac Super, a hand held vacuum for cars. It operates from the car cigarette lighter ( do new cars still have these? I don't know). I have not tested it as our car is parked elsewhere due to the ice etc, but I have no reason to think it doesn't work. We were given it and haven't used it, just because we don't clean our car! It has all the bits and instructions. It has been mended with some insulation tape, so perhaps the flex got a bit worn, so care needed when testing it, maybe it might need a proper repair? But it could still have some use?

Ex-allotment Qualcast Turbo SR 40 petrol lawn mower (Weetwood LS16)
Gifted
ex-allotment paths lawn mower, donated by a previous allotmenteers. Been well used but probably has some life left in it. We think it still works, but cannot guarantee this, it may need some work on it, this genuinely isn’t know. We were given another mower and have used this for a couple of years, so we don’t know whether this one still worked at that time ( the personnel has changed). Taken as seen, was a good piece of equipment. Good for people who have some tinkering knowledge perhaps? It would help if, when replying, you add some text, rather than just asking if it’s still available. This helps decision making when there are lots of replies.

Oldish Yoga Mat (Weetwood LS16)
Expired
A blue and gray yoga mat. It’s in good condition. It has some slight marking on it, where I did a class in a church hall that had recently painted its floor black! I washed it a couple of times, but some staining still remains. It’s a cheap ish yoga mat, so a bit squeaky and a bit slippy, and not very cushioning, but still very usable as a yoga mat. It is lightweight for carrying. Could be good as an under layer or for using eg to kneel on in the garden etc.

Parker knoll easy chair good for reupholster project (Biggleswade SG18)
Expired
Parker knoll easy chair. In good condition structurally, but the fabric is showing some signs of wear, although I think it could just do with a good clean? They are 20 odd years old, and I do not think they have the fire labels that charities etc require. If cleaned or perhaps reupholstered, they could still have a good life. To collect this Mon pm or Tues am only

The longest zip you have ever seen! (Weetwood LS16)
Gifted
I doubt anyone will want this, but I have just cut a yellow zip out of the cover for a mattress topper (long story). It’s currently been fixed as a circular zip, but can be made linear. It’s 680cm long! I guess you can cut it and shorten it to any length you want, just secure the end of the zip by sewing over it well? It’s a good quality zip.
