Free: card index boxes (Woodley RG5) - Both take 6"x 4" cards and come with a pack of edge-punched cards.. Clipping out 1 or more holes and inserting knitting needles through the pack allows the wanted cards to drop out. The subjects may be classified alphabetacally, numerically (up to 75) or using the 7,4,2,1 system to create even more detailed subdivisions - old technology but it can't be hacked and doesn't crash!. Unfortunately many of the lettered separator cards are missing.

Free: Tarpaulin/waterproof cover sheet (Woodley RG5) Gifted - Heavy gauge blue plastic coated canvas, approx 320 x 170cm, fair condition, one seam needs a few cm of re-sewing and needs cleaning up a bit. Was originally a tent ground sheet, recently used as a frost cover for my Fiesta Free: hydrometer (Woodley RG5) - for checking charge state of lead acid batteries, good condition Free: collection of trad jazz records (Woodley RG5) Gifted - Ken Colyer, George Lewis, Bunk Johnson, ODJB, Barber etc., about twenty 78rpm, thirty 45rpm, eight 10" LPs, all in fair/good condition with few scratches and in their original sleeves. Free: laptop shoulder bag (Woodley RG5) Gifted - black, little used Free: Garrard RC75 record changer (Woodley RG5) Gifted - I offer this as a restoration project. It worked OK when I copied my 78/45 rpm records to tape and has since sat in a cupboard. But when I checked somehow the mechanism has got out of synch. There is no damage, nothing broken or bent. I suspect that the geared cam that actuates the record changing and switch-off is misplaced from it's correct start position - for example it will play a stack of records but then switches off before the tone arm has fully returned to it's support. I replaced the original tone arm with a lightweight arm made out of CFRP and fitted with a standard cartridge mount.

Free: Used padded envelopes (Woodley RG5) Expired - bagful of about 30, various sizes, all good enough to be re-used Free: tea/coffee/herb containers (Woodley RG5) Expired - "Chinese" scene tin 8.7cm square 11cm high - decoration looks blurred due to flash reflection "Coffee" 10.2 cm dia 11.7cm high All clean and the lids fit well. I presume there was a china lid to the coffee jar - however the flexible plastic lid gives a good seal when pressed in at the centre to create a slight vacuum.
