Request: Heating oil tank (Crosby Ravensworth CA10) We need to rely on oil heating while waiting at least 2 years for a heat pump connection to be installed. Because of nature of installation we've been told it must be a bunded or double-skinned tank. So hoping someone is taking out a suitable tank that we may have. Best wishes

Free: Coffee table (Kendal LA9) Coffee table measures in inches 38 wide x 19 deep x 18 high (97 x 48 x 46 in centimeters). I have painted it white in a quick drying water-soluble paint (quick drying so easy to repaint). I put a piece of my wallpaper under the glass that protects the top of the table - so there is a template f you wanted to do the same. Or you might want to put photographs or art work or children's drawings under the glass. It is not safety glass but could be covered in clear sticky-backed plastic or similar. It is a good height for small children to kneel around for meals or play. Or you might just want it as a smart coffee table.....
