Wide Fridge Freezer (Great Missenden, HP16)
Gifted
This fridge freezer works, it has a full set of internal shelves, pull out shelves, bins and door balconies. The water dispenser works - requires plumbing in and a water filter for this feature, and for the internal ice maker*. The *ice maker is not currently functioning and we had a bit of a drip out of the bottom around the time the ice maker stopped working but an appliance engineer should be able to fix it - as well as plumb it in. It is in really good condition for its age - just a couple of dings on the outside, but it's age, + the ice maker fail, + a refurb going on around it, means it has to go - and before the weather turns because we have no where to store it except where you see it in the picture. It is slightly deeper than average, EDIT: measurements are 90cm wide x 178cm tall x 72cm deep (Depth includes handles out front and some things at the bottom behind it).

Double Bed + 2 mattresses (1fm,1sp) (Great Missenden, HP16)
Gifted
Standard 4 ft 6 double. Metal and wood base, cream leatherette covered sides and headboard. Visually showing some age but a bit of cream cleaner should bring it up nicely. The bed has 2 mattresses: one is sprung and the other is memory foam. The memory foam mattress suffered some spills but the cover zips off and I believe it can be washed. The marks are not great I admit but a proper mattress cover which you might use anyway would make that irrelevant. We are a non smoking household and not smelly people (as far as we can tell 😆).

Dog Food (Great Missenden, HP16)
Expired
Is my dog fussy or just very selective? Same thing I guess. 2 x Chicken and 1 x Turkey, Sealed packs from the Harringtons selection box. Each pack is about 400g I think (I no longer have the box). I wrote the flavours on the tops so I didn't have to squint at the back of the packs. This was a change from his usual wet food and it doesn't suit him, even though it's a very good brand. Oh well back to the home roasted chicken and steak trimmings. He eats better than we do.

Pair of Light Wood Stools (Great Missenden, HP16)
Gifted
Plain and functional. One of them is a little wobbly and needs a tighten up, but we've found them to be very robust and strong - they've supported some very robust bums in their time and yet still have a lot of life left in them.

Sony Stereo HiFi 4 Parts, Radio OK (Great Missenden, HP16)
Gifted
🪛📻🔧 The radio still works and I was told the CD player just needs a run through with a disc cleaner. Other than that offering it as seen in the pictures. I haven't dumped this yet in case a repair enthusiast could use it as a donor for parts. Sony CFD-515 - main body only, no speakers. I'll give it a few days but I'm off to the dump early next week.

Old Anonymous Photographs (Great Missenden, HP16)
Expired
I'd like to give them a new purpose. Hi Trashers, Freeglers and Cyclers, - Pre-1960's (ideally but not exclusively), and sepia/black and white would be particularly of interest. - Subjects including people/portrait photos, rural/urban/suburban/industrial scenery, objects even - anything that really seems from a much earlier time or way of life. No limit really, just anonymous/forgotten people, interesting times/places/activities. - For creative based projects - collages, inspiration and portraiture exercises (art therapy). I think it's better than putting the traces of real lives through a shredder or into landfill. Please note:- if some (not all) are particularly interesting I might make them available via a suitable sharing platform online for community interest or other platforms that offer a profit incentive - depends on what type of interesting they are. This might help me a little financially as I am a carer with restricted opportunities to go out and work outside the home for any useful period of time. - I have quite a lot of flexibility for collection times most days, however I might be limited on how far I can go depending on my care duties that week. Thanks for reading. [ Items received in response to this request will be resold ]

🎊Inflatable Birthday Decoration (Great Missenden, HP16)
Gifted
Multi coloured foil "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" Letter height approx 14" when filled. Letter span: currently strung across about 12 feet/3 meters. For easy ref that makes each letter (and the space between) just a bit larger than a full A4 page. These are available fully air-inflated only and any that are going down can be refilled by inserting a straw in the valve as shown. I figure you might be able to flatten them and go again with helium if you really wanted to - note the valve is self sealing and not plugged, which may or may not work with helium. Happy Birthday to whoever wants it 🎊😁.

Summer Dresses Age 5 to 9, + other (Great Missenden, HP16)
Gifted
🧺 Freshly washed (as you probably guessed) having been in storage. Most of this seems to be for 6 to 8 years but the odd thing is a size smaller or larger. However, like most clothes it will depend on the proportions of the child in question. (My youngest wore even the smallest of these with leggings beyond the ages.on the labels). The black evening dress is to fit an average nine year old and has a pair of sparkly tights to go with it - that one was hardly ever worn. There is also a pair of jeans with white patterns on and a long winter jumper.
