Request: Step Stool Wooden (Forest Hill SE23) Withdrawn I'm looking/hoping for a wooden step stool to give me access to a high cupboard in my kitchen. The picture shown is of plans for making one but I think maybe I'm no longer up to the task.

Request: Compass (Forest Hill SE23) Withdrawn I am an elderly man. Looking for things to do to occupy my time. One thing I've got interested in is compasses. So if there's anyone with a compass they don't want any more I'd love to have it. I will not sell on anything I'm given.

Free: Walking sticks (Forest Hill SE23) Gifted Walking sticks (tied together for storage). You'll need to accept all of them. One of the sticks has a metal point so I shouldn't think it wise to walk the street or take them on a bus.

Free: TP-Link WiFi Range Extender (Forest Hill SE23) Gifted Bought it for specific purpose and it worked. Not used it since. You'll probably need to factory reset it.

Free: Collectable Candle Holder (Forest Hill SE23) Gifted Candle Holder. Cast Iron. 16cms tall. By Jens Quistgaard Denmark. Early 1960's. I obtained this some fifteen years ago (probably from some bulk house clearance job lot) and it has been gathering dust since then. I am offering this to a genuine collector only. I'll ask you to promise that you'll not sell it on.

27d

Free: Table lighter (Forest Hill SE23) Gifted Table lighter in the shape of a Policeman's Helmet with what looks like a Victorian badge. It doesn't work but I expect it only needs a new flint and some gas. The item was an unexpected extra in an eBay bulk purchase. As an ex-smoker its the last thing I'd want lying around. Marked Japan in the side of the mechanism. Offered to someone who will promise me that they won't sell it on.

Request: Broken computers (Forest Hill SE23) Withdrawn I am an elderly man. Looking for things to occupy my time. Until covid came along I used to repair broken computers. Not for money but to donate them for charitable purposes. If anyone has a broken computer system unit (not screen or printer) that they are throwing out please may I be considered. I will not sell anything I repair but will instead donate it to a nearby charity. Located Forest Hill can collect nearby.

Free: Artist's Easel (Forest Hill SE23) Gifted Made of wood with wing nuts to adjust. Total height approx. 180cm. I found it discarded up the road and thought surely someone will like it. I've done a minor repair on it for you.

Free: Dyson Cylinder Vacuum - Working (Forest Hill SE23) Gifted Dyson Cylinder Vacuum. See photo. Don't know model number. Mains not battery. It was working when I put it in the garage very recently. Complete with tools. I found it too big and cumbersome in a small over-furnished flat. You'll need transport because it's too big for the bus!
