Free: Electric Heater (CT1) You can only have 1 fan setting (heat level 1), because the relevant control got broken for some reason I can't remember. Otherwise it seems to work fine. I'm giving it away because I have a few of these and don't need them all. They were donated by British Gas when the central heating was having major repair work. -- MODERATORS MESSAGE -- If you are expecting a reply PLEASE PLEASE remember to check your SPAM folder, you'd be amazed how many messages we find/or hear of that are missed because they've got sent to spam by over zealous email filters, Yahoo being by far the worst.

Free: 2 Identical Elegant Wooden Chairs (CT1) Gifted I put these on Freegle at the end of 2024 and nobody wanted them for some odd reason. They're both in perfect condition.

Free: Howdens Kitchen Worktop Offcuts (CT1) Gifted We had a partial refit of the kitchen 5 years ago and I kept these offcuts for some reason, thinking I might use them for something. I didn't!

Free: Plastic mounting for paper or pictures (CT1) Gifted I really don't know how to describe these pieces of plastic, and I can't remember their original purpose, but I think I used them for mounting small posters without the use of a picture frame. They can also be used to keep numerous sheets of paper together without stapling them. The long pieces are about 20 1/2 inches and the shorter ones 11 1/2. -- MODERATORS MESSAGE -- Please remember to check your account for 'Chat' messages from other members and/or site vounteers.

Free: 'Hedgehog' For Guttering (CT1) Gifted It's all been used of course, but still able to do its job of stopping leaves etc going into your downpipes.

Free: Microphone Stand (CT1) Gifted The height of the stand is no longer adjustable (something broke the day before I posted this), but the arm (where it says 'Senn' on the stand) operates perfectly, so as long as you don't need a lot of flexibility in height adjustment, this mic stand could still do its job for years. -- MODERATORS MESSAGE -- Please remember to check your account for 'Chat' messages from other members and/or site vounteers.

Free: 15" Soft Laptop Case (CT1) Gifted Originally it was for a 2012 Macbook Pro, so it might be thicker than current cases. You can therefore carry other items in it as well, such as paperwork or small accessories such as a hub. The zip has a minor issue, as you can see, but that doesn't affect use of the case at all. It can still be zipped up and the laptop safely transported.

Free: G-Drive Mini External Hard Drive (CT1) Gifted This drive (about 15 years old I think?) appears to be in good working order. If you have an old computer with Firewire sockets, you should be able to power the drive from there, which is what I always used to do. I find that when using the G-Drive Mini with USB, it tends to be necessary to use a separate power supply (12 V / 600 mA). That said, I have another G-Drive Mini which I'm keeping for backing up the data on a Macbook Air, and the MBA seems to provide sufficient power. I can provide you with whichever connecting cable you need for your computer: I have USB, Firewire 800, and Firewire 400 to 800 adaptor cables. Just tell me which you need. -- MODERATORS MESSAGE -- Please remember to check your account for 'Chat' messages from other members and/or site vounteers.

Free: Portable DVD player (CT1) Gifted I assume this device is probably 15 years old, though it's rarely been used. At the time of writing I've just tested it with a couple of DVDs. One worked fine, as did the controls on the player when viewing it. The other didn't seem to load, and I'm pretty sure the disk isn't scratched. What the problem was I don't know. If I get a moment before somebody collects the player, I'll investigate this further. It has a rechargeable battery, though I have no idea what condition it's in. If the battery's now too weak to use, you can easily remove it and take it to the recycling centre. The mains power supply seems to work fine. You won't be surprised to know that the screen isn't exactly 4K. It's not even HD, but if you're not fussy about picture quality and you've got a good pair of earphones to avoid use of the fairly poor on-board speakers, you'll find this player should be fine. After all, it IS on Freegle; I'm not trying to sell it! It comes with a user manual and a soft case. -- MODERATORS MESSAGE -- Please remember to check your account for 'Chat' messages from other members and/or site vounteers.

Free: 4 x 1.5 Volt Batteries (CT1) Gifted I think these were bought for use with a torch, but the torch got broken recently. I don't think they've been used much, if at all, as they're still providing approximately 1.5 volts. The red ones have no use-by date on them; the other two are dated November 2019. Nevertheless, there is absolutely no sign of chemical leakage from any of them. -- MODERATORS MESSAGE -- Please remember to check your account for 'Chat' messages from other members and/or site vounteers.

Free: Airfix Lancaster Model Kit (CT1) Gifted This has been in my family's loft for several decades. It appears that as a boy I started to build the model, and then stopped. Nevertheless, as far as I can tell, all the original parts are present. There would be no reason for any to be missing. 12th December, 12:45 am: I've just signed in to have a look at my account, and I'm amazed at the number of people who'd like the 2 Airfix models I've advertised! Hopefully I'll get back to you all tomorrow. I ought to give each of them to the people who replied first I suppose... -- MODERATORS MESSAGE -- Please remember to check your account for 'Chat' messages from other members and/or site vounteers.
