Free: BT Modem/Router and other WiFi Kit (East Ruston NR12) Gifted This is old style kit (802.11g/802/11b) not used in the last12 years, but still with original boxes manuals CDs etc. Probably more suitable to a collector than for mainstream use these days. Abandoned using it when we moved to this house (In those days I got between 0.8 and 2.0Mbps Now there's a cabinet in the village but these days a mobile connection is still faster than a landline). Now we're moving again and this kit will be going to the tip if not claimed by anyone.

Free: Challenge Extreme Jig Saw (East Ruston NR12) Gifted I probably abused this drill a bit. Certainly I broke a number of blades when using it. I won't be using it again and it will go to the tip if not claimed before our house move.

Free: Freeview Box and DVB card for PC (East Ruston NR12) Gifted Two items. If you have a TV with a non-working tuner the Freeview box will solve your problem. If you have an old desktop PC which can be connected to a TV aerial then you can view and record anything on TV on your PC. Haven't used this kit, but from what I understand it doesn't suffer the problems often found with modern recorders and it will allow you to edit recordings to get rid of adverts in films, etc. Will go to the tip if not claimed before our house move.

Free: Black and Decker Hammer Drill (East Ruston NR12) Gifted Used for many a year until I got a cordless drill. It been sitting in our shed for ages and will go to the tip if not claimed before our house move.

Free: Parkside Electric Scraper (East Ruston NR12) Gifted Bought for a single job 12 years ago. Still in original box with manual. The blades show a little sign of rust after being stored in a shed all this time. If not taken before our house move will go to the tip.

Free: Inflatable Bed (East Ruston NR12) Gifted Blow-up bed with flock upper surface. Approx 76" x 56" x 12" with mains powered pump. Daughter gave it to us, but we don't need it! Moving House! Needs to go!

Free: Wall Mounted Fan Heater (East Ruston NR12) Gifted Black and brushed steel wall mounted fan heater 34" x 19" x 6" with thermostatic control and glowing ember effect. (Lit by a low wattage bulb, the embers are the original chalk dusted stones. You'll tell immediately if your children have picked them up. They'll have dusty white hands!) Includes the wall mounting bracket. Brought from another house in 2013 but never used here. We're moving again, hence the deadline. Save it from being tipped!

Free: Sky Digibox (East Ruston NR12) Not used since 2010. Working then and presume it does now, but I know things have changed at Sky. We used to use it with their free service (100 or more channels) Yes, they had to offer a free service under government regulations as we went digital, as not all areas could receive the new digital service when analogue TV stopped broadcasting. It still has the original Free service viewing card. As you can see it dates from before HDMI connections so we are supplying a SCART cable with it. Even comes with the original manual! Not available for collection 28 May - 2 June.

Free: Sharp Hard Disk Video Recorder (East Ruston NR12) Not used since moving to our current house in 2013, but working then and no reason to believe it isn't now. We're moving again so need to clear the clutter. Complete with user guide and power supply. As you can see it's pre-HDMI ports, so there's a SCART lead included. Not available for collection 28 May - 2 June.

Free: Assorted Computer and TV Accessories (East Ruston NR12) Gifted A collection of used and in some cases obsolete technology, but believed to be fully working and in original manufacturer's boxes. Some manuals may be missing. They include a Freeview set top box (good for a TV with broken tuner!) TV card (to turn computer into a TV) Modem/Router and wifi periferals for laptops. external DVD writer, etc. They'll all been sitting unused in a cupboard or under our bed for ten years, but we're moving house soon and they need a new home.

Free: Trio of Fuji Digital Cameras (East Ruston NR12) Gifted Bought and used from new over the last 20 years. Two come with original boxes, CDs and printed manuals. The newest, bought 10 years ago, has damage to the battery lid, so you need to hold it on with a rubber band. Various extras including a cases a wide angle lens, etc. We're moving house and it really is time to start getting rid of things!
