Free: Bricks (Oxford OX4) Bricks, mostly flettons, some with mortar attached but it's lime so comes off easily. They're by the front gate at 5 Radcliffe Rd OX4 4BX. I can't promise them because someone may come along and take them, but if you want to save a wasted journey then please message me with your mobile number and I'll let you know if they're still there before you set off.

Free: Jones sewing machine (Oxford OX4) Gifted I think this is the same make as Brother. It works but may not be set up properly and need adjustment and/or cleaning. A minor inconvenience is that the hinges which are supposed to let the top of the machine fold back from the base to change the bobbin are broken so the top comes right off the base as shown in the third picture.

Free: Pfaff sewing machine (Oxford OX4) Gifted Pfaff varimatic 6085 sewing machine. Works OK for regular fabrics but not well for stretchy or thick ones (maybe a matter of cleaning and adjustment?)

Free: battery holders and connectors (Oxford OX4) Gifted Six holders for 8 AA cells each, giving 12V total for each battery pack. The battery holder have press studs like those on 9V PP3 batteries, and I'm offering a load (haven't counted them) of connectors which fit these. I would prefer them all to go as one lot but if you just want a few of either I could split.

Request: old laminate flooring (Oxford OX4) Withdrawn I'm after a few square metres (4m by 4m would be great) of skip-grade laminate flooring - aesthetics immaterial (it's for a cellar floor), ideally with useable underlay, and in or close to the OX4 area

Free: Ornate bed headboard and foot end (Oxford OX4) Gifted Next door neighbour asked if I wanted this and agreeded to me offering it here. It's just the headboard and matching foot end. The foot end at least is chipboard but both parts have stood up well to being outside for the last few weeks (I guess it's all heavily varnished) and seems in good condition considering. There are no other parts to make a working bed out of it so would require work to use it for anything.

Request: small HDMI monitor screen (Oxford-Freegle CGA OX4) Expired I'm looking for a small monitor screen with an HDMI input connector (like the one in the picture) Doesn't have to be fancy 4K hi-def or anything - just to see text on from a computer (Raspberry Pi) Likewise it doesn't have to be big - the size of a laptop screen would be fine.
