Aloe cutting (Kingsway BA2)
An Aloe brevifolia (I think) cutting, recently propagated as a pup of the parent plant and now (as far as I can tell) rooted and ready for a good home. I have included a picture of the parent plant, but I am only offering the cutting. It likes plenty of light but may be best out of direct sunlight. During the summer, an established plant needs watering about once a fortnight and feeding with every other watering; in winter it needs watering every three or four weeks. In the present heat wave, it will need watering about once a week to keep the soil moist. Can be collected from my front doorstep (off Englishcombe Lane) this weekend. When replying, please specify a day and time when you will commit to collecting it. Neil Forsyth

Large empty tin (Bloomfield BA2)
Someone bought these as a contribution to Christmas a couple of years ago. We’ve eaten all the crisps, but I don’t know if someone can make use of the tin? 24 cms high, 22cms across. It’s not particularly strong but it’s reasonably airtight with the lid on. Or might be fun just to use as a planter.

Wooden box for £2 coins (Bloomfield BA2)
This box is very solid and was handmade in order to collect and gift £2 coins - it held quite a few! Can’t think what else to do with it, and if no one else wants it, it’ll go to the tip. But I know how resourceful the Freeglers are - and who knows some of you might still be using cash and might like to use this as a way of saving/gifting. If you start now, you might get it full for Christmas.

Cardigan for creative mending (Bloomfield BA2)
This is a really lovely 100% Paul Smith cardigan, size L (14). It’s a deeper turquoise colour than it looks in the picture. I bought it in a sale, and it was always a bit too big for me, but before I could get around to reselling it, the moths had a nibble. I can’t bear to throw it away, and I can’t be bothered to mend something. I’m never going to wear. Does anyone else out there? Fancy having a go at creative mending on this one?

Car cleaning and polishing product products (Bloomfield BA2)
Promised
These have been in our garage for about 15 years…… I don’t know if anybody even uses them anymore? But perhaps youngsters who are into their cars? They are unopened, and garage is cool and dark so hoping they’re still okay.

Electrical lip plumper (Bloomfield BA2)
Promised
All the details are in the photos. Comes complete with USB charger - all that’s missing is the tube of serum. This came FOC as part of a review panel. My daughter and I both tried it and thought it was surprisingly effective, but neither of us were that interested in continuing to use it. It’s been sitting in a drawer for a few years, but no reason to think it’s not still working fine.

Compact trampoline (Bear Flat BA2)
We have a compact rectangular trampoline that our daughter has outgrown, good condition. The overall size is 6 ft x 8 ft and as its rectanglar it's quite easy to store up against a wall. The upper section of net folds down fairly easily so the trampoline can be tipped on its side to minimise storage space. Perhaps better suited to younger/smaller kids Ideally it would go to someone in the Bear Flat area of Bath as we could avoid complete dismantling and simply carry it round mostly assembled (to save you some time). Preference given to local people who actively donate on recycle

Fridge - free standing (The Mendip Golf Club BA3)
White fridge about 5ft high. Was using until this afternoon, but just replaced as needed a larger one for our business. It is missing 1 of its feet, but we just put some cardboard under it to stop the wobble. Works fine. Has shelves and a drawer at the bottom, plus shelves in the door. Hinged at the right, but think you can swap this if wanted.

Epson compatible printer cartridges (Priston CP BA2)
These were for Priston Festival's amazing, but temperamental and expensive the run Epson Stylus Photo R2880. They are not actual Epson but equivalents. We are happily liberated from the tyranny of such cartridges and have an Eco tank printer instead. You should be able to see the colour / number of the cartridges in the picture.
