Request: Newspapers (March PE15) Received 1y - Looking for free newspapers... I know they are becoming rare now... they are useful in so many ways such as saving the table or carpet from messy hobby projects. Thanks if you have any to offer.

Free: Wooden Door - possible shed shelf? (March PE15) Expired 1y - Approx 198cm x 76cm. Quite a 'solid' firm door. UPDATE - handles and hardboard sheets have been removed from both sides, so now it's just a regular wooden door

Request: Pair of Crutches (March PE15) Expired 1y - When my back 'goes' a pair of underarm crutches might help me around the house and outside. I'm an average size/height adult male, approx 122cm to armpits (when I can stand up straight! ;-) Many thanks if you can help.

Request: Plastic Pipe (March PE15) Expired 1y - So I'm hoping to build a model castle! Does anyone have odd lengths of plastic pipe I could use for the towers. It doesn't have to be in great condition. Ideally I need 3ft (90cm) of 4" (10cm) dia; 3ft (90cm) of 2" (5cm) dia; 2ft (60cm) of 3" (12cm) dia. (approx sizes) Preferably not too far from March. Thanks

Request: Artificial Plants or flowers (March PE15) Expired 1y - Yes I know it's a long shot but wondered if anyone has any artificial plants or flowers they no longer want. I'm no gardener and have too much other work to be done with the old house I moved into, but it would be nice to brighten up a dreary house exterior. Thanks if you're able to help.

Free: CHINA COIN SET - make a mint! (March PE15) Gifted 1y - Here's your chance to make a fortune... well maybe... It's a mint set of coins from China (Taiwan) from decades ago, and for all I know might be worth a fortune? No idea but I'm letting them go for nothing! Guaranteed Covid-free from well before that era!

Request: Car Windscreen Sun Shade? (March PE15) Expired 1y - Does anyone have a 'spare' car windscreen sun shade, something like that in the picture? Shopping online can be risky because they often turn out to be far thinner than you expect. Ideal size would be 47"/120cm wide, 31"/78cm tall, but will try to make do with any size. Many thanks

Request: Walking Frame (March PE15) Expired 1y - My back's gone and a walking frame might help me get around the house. I'm a medium-size male. Many thanks if you can help.

Request: Wire Coat Hangers (March PE15) Expired 1y - I'm after any quantity and condition of wire coat hangers similar to those in the picture. The stiff wire is useful for so many practical applications! Will come to collect but preferably not too far from March! Thanks

Request: SCREEN DOORS - (anti-insect for exterior doors) (March PE15) Expired 1y - Does anyone have any 'fly screen doors' they don't need, even if broken or torn? Normal single door size (exact size not critical). I'm thinking of the 'solid frame' type (usually aluminium or maybe PVC), not 'magnetic curtains'.

Request: Emulsion Paint, esp Blue, Green, Yellow (March PE15) Expired 1y - I'm seeking odd tins of paint, (emulsion not oil-based please), mainly basic colours - bright Blue, or bright Yellow, or deep Green. Also black, a little red, maybe brown,.. They can be small amounts, used tins. I want to mix them to make a countryside-view mural painting on my boring bottom fence. (I have plenty of light green!)

Free: Dyson Vacuum Cleaner (March PE15) Gifted 1y - DC04 originally bought at a car boot sale, sort-of works but not very enthusiastically. A different one came my way so no longer need this one.

Free: TOILET SEAT, Plastic (March PE15) Gifted 1y - This is a spare, new, unused, still-sealed-in-bag, basic toilet seat complete with fittings. It came with a new toilet to which I attached a different seat.

Free: FOOTSTOOL THINGY - Antique? (March PE15) Gifted 1y - Here's a classic Footstool thingy I don't need. That's all I can tell you about it!

Free: two large armchairs (March PE15) Expired 1y - These big chairs have seen a few years, bit grubby but can still be put to use! Pictures are of one but they are a matching pair, complete with assorted cushions. They are on castors. Free: CIRCULAR RUG TRADITIONAL 8ft 2.4m Diameter (March PE15) Gifted 1y - This rug was in the house I bought but not needed. Probably needs a clean but apart from a little edge unstitched on the underside (see pictures) it seems fine to me.

Request: A4 - size Suspension File Dividers for Filing Cabinets (March PE15) Expired 1y - I have a small filing cabinet needing those 'file dividers' or 'suspension files' as in the photo. Maybe about 20 or so. I'd like A4 size and NOT the wider 'foolscap' size please (see photo). I welcome both 'normal' ones and expanding ones with thicker capacity to hold a lot of papers.
