Bundle of old PC CD/DVD Games (Whitegrove RG42)
Expired
A collection of older PC CD/DVD Games. The collection consists of Medieval Total War, Star Trek DS9 Dominion Wars, Empire Earth Gold Edition, Starfleet Command III, Medieval II Total War, Hearts of Iron II, Sudden Strike Anthology (3 Volumes). No picking and choosing, please. Take one, take them all. Note that all of these games are made for much older hardware and operating systems than current computers so are definitely not guaranteed to work on your current machine. Here's one time when having an older computer will definitely be an advantage.

LG Travel Adaptor. (Whitegrove RG42)
Expired
Can't recall exactly what appliance this was the power supply for but it is an AC/DC adaptor producing 4.6V DC at 800mA through a rather specific design plug although if the voltage and amperage suit your needs you can always cut off the current plug and fit a regular jack plu to suit your requirement.

TV wall mount (Whitegrove RG42)
Expired
Never used wall mounting kit, designed for old style CRT type televisions size 14" to 17". I expect that a competent DIYer could probably adapt this mount to couple to the VESA type mounting plate for a modern led set of small to medium size being lighter than the older CRT type.

1990's style "Predator" Sports Watch -New (Whitegrove RG42)
Gifted
Bought some time in the 90's and just pushed to the back of a drawer ever since. Never been used! Have just opened it up and fitted a new battery to check if it works and it does! Apparently it is good to go diving to a depth of 50m if that is something that you like to do. Comes with a nice purple strap, as was popular in the 90's so here's your chance to take a step back in time, at least as far as your wrist watch goes anyway.

Collection of Nursery to Toddler toys (Whitegrove RG42)
Gifted
Here is a collection of toys suited to baby in cot/stroller up to toddler age. We kept these in storage after our kids outgrew them hoping, one day, that grand children might have a use for them. Sadly, that wish has remained unfulfilled so we would like to pass these on to either a young parent in need of things for their own child or maybe somebody running a child care centre in need of some extra items for the children they look after. I want this all to go to one person so no asking for particular items. What you see in the photographs is what you get. Please say when you will be able to collect. We are near to Tesco North store and available at most times with a little bit of notice.

Three hand saws (Whitegrove RG42)
Gifted
Three vintage hand saws dating back to around 1930's. These saws do not have any readily visible makers names on them but are still of good substantial quality. These belonged to my father in law who was very keen on carpentry when he was younger and only bought good quality tools.

Small but tough shopping bag (Whitegrove RG42)
Gifted
Ever wanted a little shopping bag to take just a few items that you could fold up and put in your pocket but was tough and wouldn't fall apart after a few shopping trips? Well here it is! This measures 375mm x 310mm x 100mm (open). Has zip closure for the main compartment and also has two smaller pockets on the front, one of which is also zip fastening with the other being open. My mother in law used this for years and it still looks like new. She doesn't go shopping any more so somebody else can use it now.

Two A4 filing boxes (Whitegrove RG42)
Gifted
Metal and plastic file storage boxes x 2. Each box is 360mm wide x 350mm deep x 270mm high. The boxes are lockable, not fire proof and designed for open folders, loose papers, books, etc rather than hanging files. I used to use these for routine paperwork until I accumulated too much paper on too many topics and migrated to a proper filing cabinet. Then these were used in the garage to hold workshop manuals and other technical materials but now I am having a clear out and, before taking them to the dump I thought I would see if anybody else could find a use for them.

Note that this is all or none, no picking and choosing puzzles.

Desk/Bedside lamp (Whitegrove RG42)
Gifted
Was fully working when put away but suspect bulb has failed and I do not have a spare for it. I used this lamp for a number of years, as a desk lamp and found it very handy as the head height is easily adjustable as is the angle of the head. I have included a picture of the bulb housing so you can see what sort of bulb is needed.

Old Johnsons Baby Bath X 13 (Whitegrove RG42)
Gifted
Some genuine unused Johnsons Baby Bath. My father in law used to suffer with sensitive skin and bought this stuff in bulk to take advantage of sale prices. Sadly, he never got to use it all up so this has been in storage for a number of years. The bottles do not have any Use By or Best Before dates and a simple sniff test reveals that it smells exactly like a brand new bottle so I assume it is quite safe to use. There are 13 bottles in all, 8 standared size plus 5 packaged as 50% extra free.

Mixture of Oil Pastels and Water Colours (Whitegrove RG42)
Gifted
A plastic box full of Oil Pastel Crayons and multiple pots and a few tubes of watercolour paint. The tubes still feel soft and runny but I haven't opened up any of the little plastic pots. Some of these may Have dried out but, equally, they may be perfectly usable. Any artists out there want some materials?
