Free: Tomato plants (South Hounslow off Central Av) We have several spare plants of different types and sizes. Some look a bit wonky but if they’re planted deeply and tied on to a support they will be fine and all should grow away soon and flower if put into a large pot or grow bag soon after getting them home. Let me know if interested and take note of my location before saying you’ll come. TW3 2QP. Types available: Plum (4), Stripey (4), Shimmer (2 only), Black (2 only; these are large and have black flesh when ripe), Beefsteak (11), Honeycomb (3 only)

Free: Curly Parsley plants (South Hounslow off Central Av) Gifted I’ve got some medium size curly parsley plants to give away. I’ve found myself with just too many!! I may be able to give away more than one per person if there’s not too much demand but I can’t guarantee that. So bear that in mind. I have about 5. Please look up my postcode before replying - TW3 2QP

Free: African violet plants (South Hounslow off Central Av) Gifted One purple and white flower plant, one mainly pink flowered plant with a subtle white edge and one dark pink plant (Bob Serbin) with a white edge to give away. I have other purple and white plants but they’re not all this big or in flower yet. If required I could spare maybe 2 more of that colour. These are slow growing house plants and can’t be placed in direct sun or their leaves burn but they do like good light and feeding regularly (& watering) regularly once compost is dry during main growing season (occasional water in winter). They prefer a slightly shallower pot as these are less likely to get water saturated. Medium warmth best. Multi purpose with added perlite I’ve found a good mix. Fairly easy to propagate from leaf cuttings (if you can be patient) but I’ve found flower colour still can’t be guaranteed.

Free: Curly parsley plants (South Hounslow off Central Av) Gifted At least one tray and possibly two trays of six parsley plants are on offer. Ready for potting on into bigger pots. I’d like them collected this weekend or Monday.

Free: Assorted plastic pots (South Hounslow off Central Av) Gifted We have accrued a lot of extra pots we don’t need. Would anyone like these? They are assorted sizes and they’ll need cleaning but they’d be great to grow on plug plants or plants you’ve grown from seed as well. I sometimes use the largest size (3litre) to put a few basil plants in the greenhouse in the summer. They do well in that size. Please note my location before offering to collect. I’m off Central Avenue in the TW3 postcode.

Free: Bubble wrap (South Hounslow off Central Av) Gifted Two carrier bags worth of assorted bubble wrap on offer. Just accumulated too much and need to declutter but it’s the kind of useful stuff someone might want. Please take note of my location and consider the travel time before expressing interest in picking this up.

Free: Children’s stories/music on tape (South Hounslow off Central Av) Gifted Does anyone have a cassette player anymore? Can you use these children’s stories and music? I have fond memories of putting them on for my kids but don’t have a use for them now!

Free: Assorted small hangers (South Hounslow off Central Av) Expired Eleven coloured (purple, blue and green) plastic coated small metal hangers probably most suitable for children’s clothing or perhaps some kind of craft activity or storage solution (eg ties/scarves). In very good condition. Please make sure you are easily able to get to my home off Central Avenue TW3 before offering to collect. There is often someone in so hopefully finding a mutually acceptable date for collection shouldn’t be too difficult.

Free: Assorted bubble wrap (South Hounslow off Central Av) Expired I have accrued a pile of assorted bubble wrap I don’t need but which could decently be re used. If that person is you please collect soon. There’s someone in at many different times so hopefully it won’t take long to find a mutually agreeable date and time. Please note my home is off Central Avenue TW3 so only offer to collect if you can easily get to my address.

Free: Car windscreen wash (South Hounslow off Central Av) Expired I have a virtually full container of car windscreen wash, which contains antifreeze. The label has gone but I got it ages ago from Halfords. I don’t tend to do a lot of miles so rarely need to refill the reservoir between services so this is just cluttering the garage. If you can use it let me know. Please note you’ll need to be willing to travel to Central Avenue in Hounslow to collect it. My road is off that road.

Free: Giant toy husky dog soft toy (South Hounslow off Central Av) Gifted Very large soft husky dog toy won in a fair a few years ago. Now my daughter is tidying things away and this can go to a new home. Fantastic toy for any child or perhaps good as a raffle prize in a school autumn or Christmas fair. One slight mark on left leg. May well sponge off very easily. Hardly noticeable anyway. Collection Monday or Tuesday this week or early Wednesday morning. Or next Sunday afternoon.

Free: Curver lidded lion face bin (South Hounslow off Central Av) Gifted Lidded lion face bin by Curver. In perfect working order. Used and well loved for many years in my children’s bedroom but now needs to go to a more suitable home. It has been as thoroughly cleaned as I could manage. They are still sold from new I believe

Free: Tomato plants (South Hounslow off Central Av) Gifted It’s not too late to try growing some, or a few more, tomato plants. I have some spare if you’d like of various sizes due to the container size they’re in. Hopefully they’ll grow away once they’re in a bigger pot or grow bag. Why not give them a go? They’ll need planting out/on as soon as possible though. I have small plants of the types 2 honeycomb (a sweet cherry which I think is orange; really gorgeous flavour), 9 plum tomatoes (great for sauce and cooking), 7 Shimmer. In medium plants I have 1 moneymaker and in large I have 1 Stripey (slightly striped markings), 1 Black (once ripe they are black but with a dollop of red at the top). Let me know how many and of what type you’d like. Ideally would like to have them collected during the weekend but I realise this post may not reach you in time for that so also tell me when you could collect. Please take note of my location and consider whether you can easily collect before saying you’d like some plants.

Free: Various types of bubble wrap (South Hounslow off Central Av) Gifted Various sizes and types of bubble wrap accumulated over time is free to collect from my address. Before offering to come please check my house is not too far from your location as I just want the wrap to go to good use elsewhere as quickly as possible. There’s three piles in the photo so a fair bit.
