Old but working pram (EH53 east calder)
If you’ve got a pram that the frame is good but the seat bit is past it’s best I’d be happy to take it off your hands and save it from landfill. I’m training for the Rob Roy mighty hike and my old dog isn’t up to all those miles. Was thinking if I get her a pram she’d happily ride along on all those miles. Happy to collect Edinburgh or West Lothian.

Hauk Dream’n Play (Langside G42)
Playpen or cot. Unfortunately it can no longer fold down due to the folding mechanism breaking but it has been secured in its upright position and has been perfectly safe for our grandson to sleep in. He is now too big and I don’t really just want to dispose as it is still useful, just not as a travel cot. You would probably want to buy a slightly thicker mattress.

Dining table and chairs (Juniper Green EH14)
Promised
Halo compact Plum dining table and four chairs. Made of ash wood. 120x 80. Extends to 170x80. Table is in pretty good condition although the bottom of the legs could do with a clean. Chairs are ash with brown leather(or pretend leather!!) seats. They need cleaned too . Two of them have puppy damage on a leg (see photo) but could be sanded down and revarnished. I think the table legs come off so it would fit in a car with the back seat down.

Canon Pixma Ink Cartridges (Dalry EH11)
My Pixma Inkjet printer is irretrievably broken. Have replaced it, and so no longer need the cartridges I had as back up. I have 1x a 551XL BK, and 1x a 550XL PGBK, unopened original Canon ink cartridges. Also happy to throw in the cartridges that are currently in the old printer... these will be 551XL in black, grey, cyan, yellow and magenta and 550XL in black... of these, from memory, 2, I think the cyan and magenta, were swapped in recently, and probably have a lot of ink left. No idea what the state the others are in.

Standard lamp (needs repair) (Chesser EH14)
Reading light plus uplighter with dimmer, about 185cm tall. Unfortunately the switch failed so the big dimmer light is stuck on at half power (so R14 LED bulb does not work, only a 200W incandescent monstrosity). I can't fix so getting rid of it.
