Two pairs of sunglasses (Bridgewood Gate ME5)
Promised
Summer is a-coming, the Met. Office (un)reliably tells us. Two pairs of “sunnies”. One pair for you and one for your BFF/sister/mother/grandmother/teacher . . . .

A floor standing shoe rack (Bridgewood Gate ME5)
Withdrawn
A shoe rack. Would probably suit women's shoes more than men's. Just the thing to sit in the bottom of your wardrobe.

Thomas Cook Travel Folder (Bridgewood Gate ME5)
This has been tucked away in a drawer for years. In the dim, distant past my dear wife and I splurged big time on a trip to Egypt. This was a present from the local Thomas Cook travel agent, together with a few bottles of cheap plonk, for helping to keep their kids fed. It came with me to Egypt but has not travelled anywhere else since. I hope someone on Freegle can take pity on it and treat it well.

Calligraphy stuff (Bridgewood Gate ME5)
Do you aspire to be a billionaire? Do you want to learn to write like Meghan Markle? Perhaps, this is where you start. Pens, nibs, ink, paper and even a “how-to” book. Get it for your kids, so you can retire at 40 and live the life of Riley. Sorry, Riley.

Oil painting (Bridgewood Gate ME5)
Oil painting - This is no Rembrandt but it has a certain charm to it. It looks as if it may be street scene somewhere on the Continent. I don't have any spare wall space that might be improved by it hanging there, so it has to go; hopefully, to someone who would like to have it in their home. I won't dump it but if no-one takes it, it will go back in a cupboard. It is approximately 60cm by 50cm.

Rio Slim Gym -The ultimate body toner (Bridgewood Gate ME5)
Promised
This has been tucked away at the back of a cupboard for goodness knows how long. I'm reducing clutter in my house and this has to go. It works on battery or mains. I've tested it to the extent that the light comes on when I plug it in. It looks as if all the gubbins are there, including some gel. The photos should give you the gist of what it is designed to do. The instructions are firmly aimed at the ladies (it is of its time, I think) but I see no reason why a chap/bloke/fellow could not use it. If you would like your, “hip outline to be more shapely and better contoured” go for it.

SpinGym (Bridgewood Gate ME5)

SpinGym - Girls, do you want to get those arms toned up in time for summer (sorry, cannot guarantee this summer - time's getting short - but next summer, for sure). These were all the rage on the shopping channel, QVC, years back but I see they are still being sold in the good ol' US of A. Google “SpinGym” and you'll find a YouTube video that explains how it works. Comes with the two original DVDs. A gym you can carry in your handbag. How cool is that? Please form an orderly queue.

A mini greenhouse (Bridgewood Gate ME5)
Gifted
A mini greenhouse Not a lot else to say about this. It's a metal frame with a translucent cover, suitable for small plants. In the photo, it is sitting on the end of a work bench, so you will understand it's not enormous. You won't be growing tomatoes in this baby but it still deserves its place in the sun. Can you bring some light into the darkness of this poor, unloved garden essential?

Two hanging baskets (Bridgewood Gate ME5)
Gifted
Two metal hanging baskets in need of rescue by someone that knows something about plants and stuff. Whenever, I go into the shed, they tell me they are fed up waiting for me to be kind to them and that they want to leave me. Could you be kind to my baskets and make them happy again?

Petrol lawn mower (self-propelled) - non starter (Bridgewood Gate ME5)
Gifted
Petrol lawn mower (self-propelled) This my old lawn mower. It was working OK when I last used it towards the end of '25 but couldn't get it to start this week. I think it probably needs some fresh petrol but I cannot guarantee it. It certainly needs a good clean. I bought it from B&Q several years ago and have had it serviced a couple of times in the last five years. It has always lived in my shed. If you want to take the gamble, please let me know.

19” tv (Bridgewood Gate ME5)
Withdrawn
A 19” TV - OK. Before you jump on this, please be aware that this has some age to it, it is not “smart”, and the stand has gone AWOL. However, it works perfectly well and has its remote control. If you want it for wall decoration, you could pick up a wall mount from a popular online emporium (you know the one; rhymes with “paragon” or “woebegone”) for about a tenner.

Wallets (Bridgewood Gate ME5)
Gifted
Wallets - It has taken me many, many years to reach that level of enlightenment, where everything has become much clearer to me. I realised that what I have needed all along was actually a purse with a zip, not a wallet, in fact. If you have yet to attain nirvana, that heady level of freedom from worry and pain in the back pocket, grasshopper, I can offer you these two wallets. One is brand spanking new; the other has been used, but is perfectly usable.
