Free: Seville Classics Sit-to-Stand desk (Wallsend NE28) Gifted 152d - Seville Classics Airlift Pro Pneumatic Sit-to-Stand Desk Riser. Does not include the keyboard tray, but one could be put on without any issue. I got this from someone on Freegle a couple of years ago. Since got a standing desk so this is no longer needed. Feels right to offer it up for someone else to use. I will leave this up for a few days, so please don’t get snarky if I don’t reply straight away :-) Collection from Wallsend town centre

Free: Habitat/Argos 6ft Christmas Tree (Wallsend NE28) Gifted 180d - Offering an Argos/Habitat 6ft Evergreen Slim Christmas Tree for someone who wants a tree but doesn’t have one. We got this a few years ago and needed a slim tree for a small space. We don’t use it now, so it would be nice to give to someone who doesn’t have a tree but would like one. I’ll probably leave this up for a couple of days; please don’t get shirty if I don’t reply immediately. Cheers!

Free: Roof bars for Citroen Berlingo etc (Wallsend NE28) Gifted 216d - 2 x roof bars from a Citroen Berlingo. May fit other vehicles. I don’t know much about them; removed a couple of years ago but not used since and no longer have the vehicle. So I cannot offer advice as to how they fit or secure onto the vehicle.

Free: Aquael aquarium heaters - repairs (Wallsend NE28) Expired 264d - 2 x Aquael aquarium heaters. These had a bit of a wobble on me not long ago and failed - they might be absolutely fine and the thermostat just a bit gummed, but I needed a replacement there and then. If you want to unpack and clean them up they may be ok still. Collection from Wallsend.

Free: Old valve radio (for a project) (Wallsend NE28) Gifted 307d - A Ferranti 147 valve radio. I picked this up years ago intending to work on it as a project.

Free: Basic side table (Wallsend NE28) Gifted 307d - Super basic side table. The original top broke long ago (it was glass topped), so I replaced it with a basic white gloss top. Nothing special but it functions as a side table. Bit grubby as been in garage for a few years. Will leave outside at agreed time. Collection from Wallsend town centre.

Request: Twinwall polycarb (plastic glass) (Wallsend NE28) Received 1y - Hello, If anyone has any spare twinwall polycarbonate lying around I’d be very grateful to take it off your hands please. The kind you would use in greenhouses or as a clear plastic roofing material. I built a cold frame with some previously but need some more for the roof. The frame is timber and I will be recessing twinwall into grooves to hopefully make it warm and watertight. If you have any spare lying around I’d be super grateful to take it away. Many thanks, Alex

Free: Genuine Ford wiper 40cm Fiesta rear (Wallsend NE28) Expired 1y - Found in the garage from our previous Ford Fiesta. Rear wiper (40cm). Probably needs a new rubber but the rest looks absolutely fine.

Free: AEG double oven (electric) (Wallsend NE28) Gifted 1y - Tldr: No, I won’t deliver this… Please read :-) Bought this ages ago from Gumtree but have never gotten around to fitting it - it is a double oven so I would have needed a larger unit than I currently have. Great aspirations and all that… I presume it still works, it did when I bought it like 4 years ago. That said I cannot guarantee it still does of course, though there is no reason why not. It’s only been stored in the garage. It is of course offered without any guarantee or anything else - it is up to you to find a competent and qualified person to test and install. To answer a few potential queries (I listed this before but got fed up and took it down): - “Can you deliver it to me?” No. It is big and heavy. You will need a large car. I did fit it into a Fiesta but that was farcical and I would not recommend. - “Can I plug it in and test it?” No, it will require a power lead. - “If I bring a power lead can I plug it in?” No, it is in the garage and I don’t want a high draw device running on that circuit. - “Is it gas?” No, it is electric. - “If I pay the fuel can you deliver?” Still no, sorry. Collection from Wallsend, very near the town centre. You will be able to pull up outside to put it into your vehicle.

Free: Monitor stand (Wallsend NE28) Gifted 1y - Monitor stand from an Iiyama monitor, though they have standard fixings so should work for most. Was white but is now a sun-faded cream colour. Might go back to white with a lot of scrubbing. Collection from Wallsend

Free: Beko gas hob pan holders (Wallsend NE28) Gifted 1y - Taken from a Beko HQAW64225SB gas hob. Heavy. They’re in pretty much as new condition- the hob didn’t work so they’ve never been used. Collection from Wallsend.

Free: Epson Expression XP-342 printer (Wallsend NE28) Gifted 1y - Epson XP-342 printer scanner. This has a weird print issue that I can’t resolve. Refuses to print black properly, misses lines and suchlike. It has a full cyan cartridge, mostly full black and magenta replaced on Friday. Tried cleaning the printhead by removing and fully soaking, plus the cartridge but still not working. I can’t be bothered to sacrifice yet more ink running print cleaning. If you want to try your hand please feel free! Probably suit someone who wants to refill the cartridges until you can coax life out of it! Collection from Wallsend, near the town centre.
