Single futon (Causeway Head S17)
Gifted
Single futon with yellow mattress cover. This was bought from Dunelm 2 years ago. The model, called Mito, is still available on their website if you want to check dimensions. This has only been slept on for a week or two, and I found it quite comfortable. It's been used a lot as a chair, and the cover is a bit grubby.

Roller blind 195cm width 160cm drop (Causeway Head S17)
This was from Blinds2Go. I ordered the wrong size, and they're made to measure, so I couldn't send it back. It's made to fit a recess 195cm wide and 160cm deep. You could probably fit it outside a recess that's perhaps 10cm or more narrower. And it will be OK in a window less than 160cm deep. The colour is ochre, and shades from a lighter colour at the top, as shown o the one on my door, in the second photo. How it fits in the recess is shown on the patterned one in another window.

Gifted
Wood-effect MDF (or similar) bookcase 203cm x 80cm x 28cm. A few marks on one shelf, and what look like damp marks right at the bottom of the sides. It should come apart, but I can't do it. Previous owner may have glued the top, middle and bottom shelves.

Two wooden cupboard doors (Causeway Head S17)
Expired
A bit of a longshot, but I wondered if anyone can use these. 2 Shaker style cupboard doors. I've had to replace them because the joints have come apart slightly, so the doors no longer fit the cupboards (one photo shows the worst bit). I think they're solid pine (one photo shows the hinge holes cut into the wood). 895mm high, 500 mm wide. .

2 old water butts (Causeway Head S17)
Gifted
About 85cm high, 50cm diameter. One has a blocked tap, but that might be fixable, or you could put a new tap in. No lids, I'm afraid

Old lampost (Causeway Head S17)
Gifted
This old lamppost was in my front garden when I moved in 2 years ago. It was connected up to the mains with a light bulb inside. I've just had it dug up, and I'm hoping there's someone who'd like to take it away! It looks like the top got a bit bent when it was laid on the ground, but I expect it'll bend back.

Dining table (Causeway Head S17)
Gifted
Mid-century (my brother bought it second hand in the 60s) wooden (oak?) dining table with extension leaf. Length 130cm (175cm extended), width 81cm, height 73cm. The legs attach with 2 screws on each one, so easy to transport. A little bit wobbly, but probably just needs a bit of gluing and maybe new or different screws. It was varnished about 40 years ago and now has a few dints, scrapes and marks.

Large, scruffy yellow swing-top bin (Causeway Head S17)
Expired
This is 70cm high. I used to use it to keep dog food in, in my garage. It's scruffy and battered but ok to store stuff like bird food in a shed or garage. I'll clean it up if anyone wants it - can't be bothered if it's going to the dump!
