Large speaker covers (Handside, WGC, AL8)
Expired
This is a long shot in case anyone is looking for someing like this. Pair of large wall speaker covers covered in linen type grey fabric, 60cm wide x 120cm high x 6cm deep. Picture shows front and rear. The speaker is supposed to sit behind the middle section (approx 25cm x 35cm), other sections can be filled with insulation. There may be a technical name or specification for such things, I don't know. Or perhaps they were made to measure for a particular media set up. A previous owner of my house left the covers, but not the speakers! They could easily be cut down.

Ironing board (Handside, WGC, AL8)
Promised
Ironing board in reasonable working condition (see picture of it set up, after cleaning it) with a fairly new cover. A bit rusty in parts where the enamel has worn off, but this does not affect your ironing! Ironing surface is 92cm x 34cm, plus iron rest, adjusts to three heights for comfort. Quite heavy. One 'ferrule' is missing, the foot taped, but it stands perfectly OK. I have never managed to find a cover that fits well, so the cover is adjusted with a drawstring. Has served me well, but needs to go because I am looking for something small and lighter.

Framed tulip print + black frame (Handside, WGC, AL8)
Gifted
Large framed print of Scott Olson blue tulips. Overall size 59cm square. Bought from a charity shop years ago, refurbished oak frame by sanding and varnishing. The label on the back suggests it came from IKEA originally. It is very heavy and recently fell off my wall causing slight damage to the bottom of the frame, needs some attention. Love it but no room for it now so it must go! The black frame is a new one which was delivered with the glass smashed, so needs new glass or perspex. For a picture 30cm x 40cm. Take one or preferably both.

Gifted
Two sun loungers, one blue, one green, with removable cushions, fold up neatly when cushions are removed. You lift the arms to lean them backwards, very easy.

Two Ikea Billy bookcases (Handside, WGC, AL8)
Gifted
Giving away two of the popular and versatile laminated chipboard Billy bookcases. Identical size, 80cm wide x 106cm tall x 28cm deep. Each has two adjustable shelves, The white one also has doors as shown. Built from flatpack four years ago, could easily be deconstructed to build something else. Needs someone handy to refix the backs which keep them true. As the backs have come adrift they are no longer stand 'square' but otherwise in good condition. They have just been moved around too much and too carelessly. Heavy but both should fit in the back of an estate car. Now empty and need gone this weekend as expecting a new bookcase on Tuesday.
