Free: Digital caliper - faulty (OX10 Cholsey) The display is very faint even after I changed the battery. Feels solid and good quality though, so would be great if someone knows how to fix it.

Free: HP Magenta toner (OX10 Cholsey) This has been opened but not used as there was a problem with it. I'm sorry, I can't now remember what the problem was

Free: Fermentation lids for Mason jars (OX10 Cholsey) Here are 4 fermentation lids for Mason Jars (American Brand). They do NOT fit British Kilner jars. I didn't know that! The opening is the same size, but the thread is different. You add water to the top, which creates an airlock allowing CO2 to escape without germs getting in. Diameter outer probably 3" , inner more like 2 3/4. Also on other sites.

Free: Strainers for tea and coffee (OX10 Cholsey) Bits from cafetiere and teapot. Glass on both is missing, but they are interchangeable and would work with a mug. Also, people turn broken cafetieres into stylish ear ring holders, but I don't wear ear rings!

Free: Holdall spares or repair (OX10 Cholsey) Gifted Large wheeled bag with rucksack straps in need of repair. The bit that NORMALLY breaks, i.e. wheels and handle is absolutely fine, but other bits would need sewing up. It's a shame as it has lots of useful pockets and is quite lightweight.

Request: 27" back wheel for vintage bicycle (OX10 Cholsey) Expired Looking for a 27" freewheel back wheel for dreailleur gears (near to Cholsey as I don't have a car). This was typically used in 1960-1980s road bikes and is slightly smaller than the size used on modern road bikes. Happy to trade for a different size.

Free: Bin from rotating compost bin (OX10 Cholsey) Expired Still available The stand is missing from this one, because it collapsed, so probably better to use for something else, unless you want to make your own frame. The second photo shows it next to another one to show what it SHOULD be like. And on the third photo, I added a house brick for scale. Also on other sites

Request: egg boxes (OX10 Cholsey) Received My chickens and ducks have been very productive recently, so I may soon run out of egg boxes. I can collect in Cholsey or nearby, but even better would be if you can leave some in the honesty box in the Amwell Place Car Park in Cholsey (OX10 9NZ, ). Then you can meet or feed the birds too.
