Request: Vacuum cleaner (Joppa EH15) I need some spare parts to get my Black and Decker vacuum cleaner VL2040 model working again. The parts aren’t sold these days. Does anybody have one which they should have disposed of long ago? If it’s still working so much the better. We can negotiate a price. Thanks.
Free: Worn out bulb/housing for projector (Comiston EH10) This bulb has over 3,500 hours on it, so it's too dim to use anymore. But it comes in an interesting little metal housing. I thought it might be of interest ot a model maker/prop designer - it looks like something from a sci-fi set. Which would be a better end than just putting it in the recycling. Pound coin for scale in the photos. In Morniingside. Anyone?

Free: Kettle (faulty) (Kirkcaldy KY1) Black Dualit Studio kettle. Works fine but doesn’t switch itself off when boiling, not a problem if you can stand over it when on. Descaling might possibly cure it but it’s not very scaled up having lived its life in Fife. Will have to chuck it if no one wants it.

Request: Bottles (Barnhill DD5) Wanted Bottles I make my own kefir and up to now, I have decanted it into standard glass milk bottles, but they are not quite large enough. Recently I rescued a bottle that we were going to put in the council recycling bins and it turned out to be perfect for what I need but really need some more. It is a 690g Napolina passata bottle. See picture. If you regularly use this size of Napolina passata bottle, I would really appreciate it if you could save one or two for me. I can collect around Dundee and perhaps further afield. I know I could easily buy a bottle, but since I got my first kefir grains on Freegle as well as the Kilner jars for fermentation thought I’d see what Freegle comes up with! Thanks
