Free: whiteboard (40 x 60cm) (Berkhamsted HP4) I have a pretty good condition whiteboard 40 x 60cm which currently has hooks for hanging (portrait orientation) but they are easily unscrewed. The back is plainish wood - could maybe be used as a pin up board.

3h

Free: Cutlery for uni students? (Berkhamsted HP4) Promised I have some used ikea knives, forks and soup/dessert spoons if anyone is sending a child off to uni who could use them. Or for anyone who just needs cutlery? I only have three teaspoons, one of which doesn't match the other cutlery. Can be split up into smaller sets (two or four) if anyone just wants a few of them.

3d

Free: Single pretty hook-through earrings (Berkhamsted HP4) No idea if these might be useful to anyone, they're the (unlost) halves of favourite earrings for which I can't find a use... The pink-patterned one looks like different colours from different angles.

4d

Free: Nail polish remover (Berkhamsted HP4) Almost completely full bottle. brand is 'classics' and 250ml.

4d

Free: Old teatowels useful as rags? (Berkhamsted HP4) I have half a dozen of these, some a little frayed. I will put them in my rags-bag unless someone could make use of them.

5d

Free: old duvet (non-standard size) (Berkhamsted HP4) Withdrawn I have a used (but not too badly) duvet measuring 150cm x 180cm. Maybe it could be useful for a pet or animal sanctuary?

5d

Free: Nearly full 400ml bottle vaseline cocoa radiant body lotion (Berkhamsted HP4) Withdrawn I have this bottle which I reckon is about 80% full, originally bought by my daughter then passed to me because she didn't like the smell. Turns out neither do I! If anyone would like it, they're welcome to collect.

10d

Free: Cheese-making starter kit (school holiday fun?) (Berkhamsted HP4) Gifted Unused cheese-making starter kit, it says can make up to ten batches of marinated feta or queso fresco. It does have a BB date of June 2018 but as far as I can tell it would only potentially be rennet that might need updating - and you need to add your own milk.

19d

Free: Random bits of ribbon (Berkhamsted HP4) Gifted Various small pieces of ribbon collected over the years for adding to gifts etc. Whittling down our 'stuff' and hope someone might find these useful.

20d

Free: unused glue sticks (8g, Scotch brand) x 4 (Berkhamsted HP4) Gifted I used to need to buy these in bulk for the children to use at school but kids all done - these are surplus to requirements! Can all go together or individually.

20d

Free: unopened tub of nivea creme 200ml (Berkhamsted HP4) Gifted I think this used to be called night cream, heavier than the easily applied daycream. In case anyone is a fan and could use!

20d

Free: Lever arch files/plastic wallets (exam revision organising?) (Berkhamsted HP4) Expired We have enormous numbers of file-able plastic wallets and half a dozen lever arch files, in case anyone's interested in some or all of it.

102d

Request: feather boa and/or tiara for costume (Berkhamsted HP4) Expired For a murder mystery dinner costume - 'nothing should be understated'! If anyone has one or both these things I'd also be delighted to borrow and return.

112d

Free: red paper lanterns Chinese-look (Berkhamsted HP4) Gifted I have four of these, I think a tea light candle goes inside them. I'd prefer them all to go together.

116d

Free: puzzle books (Berkhamsted HP4) Expired As per the photos. A very few of the puzzles have been attempted/completed, usually in pencil but still plenty to keep some keen puzzler occupied!

120d

Free: Disney classic VHS video tapes (Berkhamsted HP4) Expired Selection as per photo - plus one Barbie movie, if anyone still has a Video player! My daughters collected these and have only recently agreed to give them up...

127d

Free: beige carpet offcut (long and narrow) (Berkhamsted HP4) Expired An unused carpet offcut, may or may not be wool. Measures approx 4.1M x 0.72M.

135d

Free: Silver-covered heart shaped cake board (large) (Berkhamsted HP4) Expired A used cakeboard which still has some life in it, surplus to requirements. Approx measurements 42cm at the widest point x 38cm from dip at top of heart to lowest point at the bottom.

135d

Free: i-pad (or similar tablet) stand (Berkhamsted HP4) Expired Worked well but now surplus to requirements. Reasonably heavy, very stable.

135d

Free: Various (opened) hand sanitiser (Berkhamsted HP4) Expired We have various hand sanitiser packs, three handbag-size and one larger. They have all been opened/partially used but for anyone who goes through a lot of this they might like to collect?

135d

Free: sofa bed (Berkhamsted HP4) Expired We have a dark blue 'suedette' sofa bed, which came from Australia with us several years ago and which has no fire labels. As a sofa it's a little saggy, but if someone wanted to replace the mattress (which is fairly thin) this is still functional as a sofa bed. And despite the sagginess, our children love it and find it very snuggly. It has seen better days but is in not too bad condition. Approx dimensions are 195cm wide x 85cm deep. You would probably need a small/medium van to collect.

137d

Free: White cardboard Frame mount (Berkhamsted HP4) Expired Still in the packing unopened, frame size 20 x 16 in, image size 14 x 11 in. In case anyone has a frame with those measurements just waiting...

142d

Free: rainproof weather-shield for strollers (Berkhamsted HP4) Expired Apparently fits most lie-back strollers, although it's been hiding in our loft for some time so not sure that will still be true...

142d

Free: MDF children's play base eg for toy farm animals (Berkhamsted HP4) Expired 49cm wide x 30cm deep, these base boards decorated to look like fields, a lake and paved areas might be fun for a little one. I would prefer that they go together...

142d

Free: blue and red large gingham squares (Berkhamsted HP4) Gifted I have about a dozen of these, measurements are approx 110cm x 1m. They vary in the extent of food-marking on them but might be useful to someone. Blue is a smaller check than the red, as per picture.

142d

Free: Chipped white dinner plates (Berkhamsted HP4) Expired Five x dinner plates and 2 x side plates, all with chips around the perimeter. I'm not expecting anyone to want them for their dining table, but they may be useful for a craft project?

157d

Free: unused kilner jar seals (small) - absolutely loads of them (Berkhamsted HP4) Expired I bought some of these jars (Jar photo just to show the sort of jar, not part of offer) and for each one four seals were included. I have given away the jars as gifts, so don't need the seals. Ruler indicates size (approx 7.5cm diameter).

167d

Free: large lidded pot for hob (but possibly not for food) (Berkhamsted HP4) Expired I have a large (I think aluminium) lidded stove top pot which I have used for boiling the Xmas pudding. Someone might have a use for it, although it looks unappealing for cooking in... The photo with the ruler shows the diameter of the lid for an indication of size.

Free: silver-cleaning stuff (Berkhamsted HP4) Gifted A silver polishing cloth and polish. The polish might be partly used but nearly full, the cloth I don't think has ever been used. We don't have any silver!
