Free: Table football game (West Molesey.) It has had a lot of useage and the green 'pitch' needs reglueing as it is a bit uneven. But it would work OK like that if you dont have any glue. The goal score register at one end is missing (the photo shows that one is still on that bottom goal) but that wont matter as you can just remember the number of goals scored at the other end. One of the goalie rods came out and i fixed it with a split pin and it seems OK. It doesn't have legs as it is made to just lay flat on a table. There are no balls with it but I have a ping-pong ball you can use.

Free: Tree branch loppers/cutters (West Molesey.) I am told they work but the extension poles/rods have been lost. Maybe you might be able to replace them with a broomstick or metal tube. The one with the orange top is made by Yeoman and is 150cm long. The other one is 190cm long and quite heavy. You can have them both or just one.

Free: Painting of desert island (West Molesey.) It looks like it has been painted onto a canvas, and so is a one-off. It has been left outside for a few days, so it will need a clean up.

Free: Kids bike (West Molesey.) Giant areva with 24 inch wheels and 6 gears. An Ai search says it is for children approximately 7 to 12 years old, typically fitting riders with a height of 4'2" to 4'9" (127–145 cm). The seat height is current at 64 cm off the ground but could go down 2 cm more. It is rusty in places, for example the front suspension doesn’t move but that isn’t easily fixable and really won’t matter. I have dealt with the rest of the rust and now got it working quite well. It must have had a lot of useage as the back tyre is worn down to the inner fabric so is likely to get a puncture fairly soon. It isn't in the way so you could collect it at the weekend if you want.

Free: Painting of clown (West Molesey.) Painting of clown. It looks quite old and recently it has been left outside for a few days, so it will need a clean up.

Free: Privet shrubs (could make a hedge) (West Molesey.) Gifted The photo shows 16 with small root balls and i feel reasonably sure that they will grow sucessfully if you get them into the ground before they dry out any more. They need to go ASAP so please say when u can come to look at them and take the one/s you want. Please supply a phone number.

Free: Table football thing (West Molesey.) It has had a LOT of wear but you either fix that or put up with it. The green 'pitch' needs reglueing as it is uneven. The goal score register at one end is missing (the photo shows thaat one is still on that bottom goal) but that wont matter as you can just remember the number of goals scored at the other end. Also, one of the goalie rods comes out if you pull it too far towards you, but i think i could fix that with a split pin and a jubilee clip on the end. Please say when u can collect and please supply a phone number in case there are any other problems with it.

Free: Embroidered 'painting' (West Molesey.) Gifted Is quite dirty and dusty (proabably been stored in a loft for years), the frame is coming apart, and the back of it is in very poor condition and has been reinforced with metal brackets to hold it together. is definately NOT going to turn out to be valuable.

Free: Painting of man and woman (West Molesey.) On a canvas so it is a one-off, not a print.

Free: Internal doors (West Molesey.) Gifted Paintgrade Internal Door, made by Magnet. Size is 1981mm x 762mm x 35mm. A neighbour has asked me to freecycle them, they look reasonably solid and for some reason they have bits of wood screwed where you would normally have a handle.

15d

Free: Privet hedge shrubs/bushes (West Molesey.) The photo shows about 10 which I will be removing for a neighbour VERY soon. If anyone wants them (or some) then please let me knw (ASAP) and supply a phone number and i will try to get them out with a big rootball so that you can sucessfully replant the ones you want. Privets are a semi evergreen (quite nice in the summer but a bit drab in the winter). Personally, I think cherry laurels are a far better choice for a full evergreen, and they are faster growing than privets.

Free: Microwave BUT very big AND (West Molesey.) Withdrawn Microwave BUT very big AND it came from South Africa so needs that plug converter. This accepts round pins to then fit a British 3 pin plug. It is 240 volts. It is huge (61cm wide, 34 tall and 50 deep). It is an LG MS5643GARS and has 'iwave' written on it. They say it works (but is too big for their house). I will test it to see if that is true IF you supply your phone number (as gesture of trust).

Free: Coffee table (West Molesey.) Gifted 54 cm diameter and 40 tall. Imitation bronze. Its a bit wobbly but is OK. The two things we never liked about it is that the top surface is very uneven so wine glasses could easily fall over. Also the outer 6 cm of it curves upwards by about 2 cm and that means that meal plates resting on the outer 6 cm don't lay flat there.

31d

Free: Small coffee table (West Molesey.) Gifted Made of acrylic to look like glass. It's a bit cheap and flimsy but is basically OK. It has two levels and that is quite usefull. 40cm diameter and 35 tall.

31d

Free: Wardrobe panels (to make something) (West Molesey.) Four wardrobe end panels that are about 60 cm wide and about 180 tall. They could be used to make adjustable shelving. And there are various other panels in the photo. I made a tall shoe stand out similar items once. Please respond ASAP with a phone number and i will get them and keep then dry until you can collect

Free: 55 bricks, some damaged (West Molesey.) I am advertising these bricks in the photo for a friend who lives near the Sumerford roundabout (Christchurch). He says there are 55 and some are damaged, some quite badlly. I think you could probably just take the ones that you want. They don't appear to have any identification marks on them,. Please supply a phone number and I will forward that and your email on to him.

Free: Old bike (West Molesey.) Gifted This is probably about 30 years old and is just one of those cheap bikes that Halfords sell. I have ridden it and it would certainly get you home if you want to come for it. It has 10 gears but with a derailieur on the front 2 sprockets. So this means it just has a normal set of 5 gears and a slightly higher set of 5 gears (and i think is better described has just having 6 gears). It fits an average height person (5' 8") so if you are about 5'4" to about 6 foot it would be OK.

48d

Free: Kids bike, with stabilsers on (West Molesey.) Gifted Kids bike, with stabilisers on but you can easily take them off (or I could for you). The seat is currently as low as it will go, and that saddle is 47 cm off the ground. So it would be best if you measure that height on your kid. I have checked the bike out and I am reasonably sure it is OK. Though obvoiusly that is definately NOT a guarantee!!!

57d

Free: Child car seat/safety seat (West Molesey.) Promised For 15kg to 36kg child. It is a Cybex solution X-fix ECE R 44/04. Is in reasonable condition and the previous owners say it is safe and everything you need is there. I THINK the two shiny rods in the bottom left of the second photo fit into your car and clip in and then you put your own seat belt round the child.

Free: Small deckchair (West Molesey.) Withdrawn Suitable for kids not adults. It is quite dusty and dirty as was stored in garage and then they repaiered the garage roof. The photo mokes it look nicer than it really is

Titles inclued,Midsummer in sweden, dutch swing college, whilst the city sleeps, paddy Robert, Franciuse hardy, frank sinatra, waht do you want to makes those eyes at me (those are just random examples i pulled out of the box).

Free: Magazine/newspaper holder (West Molesey.) Gifted From clean, pet and smoke free house.

69d

Free: Old heater (West Molesey.) It works Ok but is rusty and dirty. Made by ECKO and is 2 KW. It has a thermosat dial on it which works OK. It doesnt have an on/off switch so you MUST pull the plug out of the wall when you leave (rather than relying on the thermosat dial). It is 71cm wide, 18 deep and 50 tall.

70d

Free: Snake-charmer laundry-basket (West Molesey.) Gifted The ownwers say it is 50 years old (though I think less than that). has been in a dirty dusty garage so you wouldnt use it as a laundry basket. One handle is missing and it is a bit lopsidded. Could be good as an old theatre prop.

75d

Free: Kettle (West Molesey.) Gifted De Longhi. It has come from somebody who had to move out in a rush, so i am reasonably sure they were using it (and so it works). You could also have the toaster if you want.
