Aptamil newborn baby milk (Coleshill B46)
Nine 200ml bottles of Aptamil newborn ready-mixed baby milk, unopened, still sealed, left over when my grandson moved on to regular cow milk. Apparently this is the best sort of baby milk. Apart from the ready-mix convenience, it has special stuff to make it more easily digestible.

Ikea Trofast tall storage unit (Coleshill B46)
Old and the buckets are quite tatty. We may jig things around to keep the better buckets in the unit we are keeping and give away the tattiest ones. Sorry. There is also an option to cut shelves to fit in the grooves and use it a a tall thin shelving unit. Or a mixture.

Surplus used file folders, ring binders, suspension files... (Coleshill B46)
After a big paperwork clearout we have a lot of ring binders, envelope folders, suspension files, and clear filing pockets left over and free to someplace where they will be useful. I have thrown out the really scruffy ones, but they are not new, and most of the envelope folders have old titles written on them.

Table football game (Coleshill B46)
Gifted
This was cheap when new and is a bit battered now - bits of trim missing and the table is not quite flat (if it ever was) so that the ball does tend to run to the edges and you have to pick it up and restart in the middle. But is does fold up and unfold to play. Grandchildren liked it. The table is 61 x 117cm but the handles stick out the sides. 56cm deep when folded up.

Extendable brush for cleaning the conservatory roof (Coleshill B46)
Gifted
Extends from 1m to 170cm. The bit where you should be able to attach a hose to flow through it is broken but I have found it still good with a hose on the side for the last few years. We are having a new proper roof so no longer needed.

Two roll-up bamboo blinds (Coleshill B46)
Gifted
Two bamboo blinds - the ones in the picture we still use - these two have been in the garage but are the same thing. 120cm wide. At least 180cm long. We never unroll them all the way so I am guessing conservatively for the last 30cm.

What more is there to say? It is what it looks like.

Green Rug (Coleshill B46)
Expired
Green Rug 173 x 234cm. Quite tatty but still nicer than hard floor underfoot. The cat liked to scratch at the corners; the green has worn away to expose the strings along a lot of the edges and a bit in places in the middle; and there are stains - the photographs are examples - there are more stains and unravelled bits.

Large Black bookcase/room divider (Coleshill B46)
Expired
This bookcase is still really attractive despite the bits of wear, which could easily be painted over and be less noticeable. 40cm deep, 150cm wide Chipboard with wood veneer. The veneer is worn at corners and has peeled off in one place as shown. The black stain has worn away in places on the open side, but these could be painted over. This came flatpacked from Habitat and really did slot together. It was very stiff at the time and will not come apart now so it is a large heavy item that would need a van to collect, but very sturdy.

Large Rug (Coleshill B46)
Gifted
Large rug 206 x 301cm. No obvious stains. Well-used but not really looking worn out. The tassels are a bit unravelled and there are loose strings where the black has worn away along the edges.

Jute Rug (Coleshill B46)
Gifted
Jute rug 170 x 230cm. Although it is worn flatter than it once was, it is still quite cushiony under foot. There are quite a few loose threads but only the one spot where the tufts have worn away.

Large Black Bookcase (Coleshill B46)
Gifted
80cm wide, 40cm deep. Chipboard with wood veneer. Flat-pack - can be disassembled for transport. Three fixed shelves and there were three adjustable shelves but now two so there is one big space which we have used as a side table, but could be at the top of display of at the bottom for bulky items. LOTS of storage space. We have had books double-shelved to give 6.4m of bookshelf on the four shelves. Slight stretching on the fixed shelves as shown but they are secure. The chipboard has crumbled around one of the holes for the adjustable shelves. We filled that but never did drill it out and try using it - we moved the shelf up one hole instead.
