Soft toy - door stop (Risinghurst OX3)
Gifted
4d
- Postman Pat's cat, aka Jess, has been sitting on a book shelf for a while. He says he's bored and asked to be re-homed. Would anyone like to give him a new home? We used to have a dog, who was very oblivious to cats, so the two never made friends.

Samsonite suitcase (Risinghurst OX3)
7d
- Hard plastic case, big capacity. One of the closing mechanisms is misaligned, hence that side does not close securely. This could possibly be fixed by a practically minded person. A strap would help keep the suitcase secure if used for travelling by car. Useful for storing things in the loft or garage. I would say it's not suitable for travelling by plane or train.

Jerusalem Artichokes to give away (Risinghurst OX3)
Expired
1y
- Jerusalem artichokes going spare. They have been dug up by my allotment neighbour in Headington and either need replanting asap, or if you like to eat them, they are now at their best. Please respond as soon as possible, as they are doomed to end up on the compost heap if nobody takes them soon. Would be a shame. I have just planted some but am not able to take them all. I will also post this on Nextdoor and Facebook group.

electric blanket- not heating up (Risinghurst OX3)
Expired
1y
- I have an electric blanket which does not heat up - I have no idea what is wrong with it. Are you - electrically minded and may be able to fix it? - maybe have another use for it?? I seem to think that someone thought once that they could be useful with printing equipment? or as a capillary mat when raising seeds?
