Meter for experimenter (Aylestone LE2)
Gifted
This is actually an electrician's loop tester, but appears non functional. I do not reccommend using for mains testing as this clearly will not be to current regs and likely faulty. But in a nice box and could be of use to someone. Been in my shed for years.

Two vintage canvas tents (Aylestone LE2)
Gifted
Two old (maybe 1930's-50's) thin canvas single person tents. These are for the vintage enthusiast, not someone who prefers modern fabrics and sewn in groundsheets! Lovely to use, but def summer tents. The white one has poles and better condition, the grey one no poles and some old repairs, needs tlc. made for hiking, fairly light weight, fine cotton. There is something about canvas tents I love, more connection, less plastic, but I have others and need to thin out.

Lime tree (Aylestone LE2)
Gifted
A young and healthy lime tree in a pot. The tree comes in to leaf every year, and is just about to. It is in a fairly small container and would be much happier planted out, but of course limes can grow to a large size. A container will limit it's growth, but it has likely outgrown this one. Height about ten foot. Will need suitable transport, and ideally two people with a barrow to move.

Three printers. Stylewriter 1200. Color Stylewriter 2500 and HP Deskjet 1000. Suitable for Mac Classic OS 9 and before. The HP ok with an older (1990's?) pc as well. Don't know if they work, will certainly need cartridges to test, although there are some in there. THESE ARE NOT SUITABLE FOR SOMEONE WHO JUST NEEDS A WORKING PRINTER.
