Folding metal enclosure for pets (Hitchin, SG5)
Expired
I used this as part of an enclosure for my ducks, but it had been used as a safe outdoor play area for guinea pigs before that. All the hinged sections concertina together to fold away. Collection from Gaping Lane, Hitchin SG5

6 piece garden set (Hitchin, SG5)
Gifted
Minus its cushions, the other armchair not shown in the photo is part of the set. Set comprises; - 2 armchairs - 1 sofa - 1 coffee table with removable glass top - 2 stools which fit under the table Metal frame with plastic 'whicker' effect woven covering, which is mostly fine, but less so in others. The cushions are long since gone. Might suit someone for a summer? Not especially heavy, but does not dismantle. Please only reply if you have the means to collect. We cannot deliver. Any takers? Collection from Gaping Lane, Hitchin.

Laundered seat cushion (Hitchin, SG5)
Gifted
Belonged to our late armchair. I had the feathers laundered, to clean and plump them up, but changed my mind and decided I'd sew a cover for it and make a floor cushion....then ran out of steam. Any takers? Could be turned into a floor cushion, or used to revamp an old seat cushion. Collection from Gaping Lane, Hitchin SG5

Needs a good clean, as has been stored in our attic, and would probably benefit from being repainted, this dressing mirror and drawer is otherwise in good condition.

Request:
Lazy susan turntable (Hitchin, SG5)
Received
Hi all I'm looking for a wooden lazy susan (like a round small table top connected to a smaller round piece, with a kind of turntable concealed in between). I've been tasked with making a prize wheel, and from researching it, a lazy susan is the easiest route. Attached pic is for an indication of what I mean (minus the cheese based goodies). I can collect locally and am in Hitchin.

Request:
Kettlebell weights (Hitchin, SG5)
Expired
Hi there I'm starting strength training and am on the lookout for kettle bell weights. I currently have 4kg and 6kg weights, so am looking for heavier ones (up to now more than 15kg!) that I could collect locally (I'm in Hitchin). Thanks for looking!

Trundle bed with 2 matresses (Hitchin, SG5)
Gifted
In good condition, apart from a few scrapes (could be blended with polish?). The bottom bed rolls out from under the top one and can be used at that height, or raised by using the pop out legs. This raises it to the same height as the upper bed, making either 2 singles or a double. We've currently got both the mattresses on top of the pull out bed, and those are included. The top mattress shown was bought separately and is not included. The top bed measures 1005mm wide, whereas the bottom frame measures 980mm wide. So approx 2m width if used side by side. Collection from Gaping Lane, Hitchin, SG5. We need it gone quickly, so priority will be given to anyone who can collect soonest. Please provide a contact phone number.

Bath seat (adjustable fit) (Hitchin, SG5)
Gifted
Simply sits across the top of the bath, with the underneath pieces adjustable to fit the internal width snugly. Great way for the less able bodied to sit in the bath to use a hand held shower. No longer needed, as my Mum got rid of her bath. Collection from Gaping Lane, Hitchin SG5

Free:
Fireplace hearth grate (Hitchin, SG5)
Expired
Not sure what the proper name is, but this sits in front of your open fire in the hearth. Was in front of our old brickette open gas fire, but I'm sure would be fine for all fireplace situations. Made of black pained metal, with little gold trophies/urns to each side. Lower section sits flush to the upper part. I've not described this very well, but it will make sense to those with open fires. Collection from Gaping Lane, Hitchin SG5

Large sansevieria houseplant (Hitchin, SG5)
Gifted
Large and very congested, this snake plant (a.k.a 'mother-in-law's tongue') desperately needs repotting. Divided up it'll make lots of smaller plants, or could be halved and they'd still both be huge plants. Very easy to care for, highly drought tolerant houseplant, happy in sun or shade. Plant pot included, but not the metal outer pot. Collection from Gaping Lane, Hitchin, SG5
