Request: Internal floppy disk drive and spare floppies (Bradley ST18) Hi folks, looking for a working 3.5" drive from a 90s/2000s PC tower, with some old disks that I can overwrite. A 5.25" might work too if you happen to have one of those even more ancient beasts hanging around. It needs to be internal to accept a standard floppy cable (34 pin if I remember correctly). Thanks!

Free: Electronics destined for recycling (Bradley ST18) Two old PCs, no hard drives, one has no PSU bit both have CD rewriters. Printer - I believe this is working, may need ink and head cleaning. I think I have the power cable. Modems, headsets, power supplies and randomly a broken/dismantled electric heater.

Free: Old car charger, I think type 1 (Bradley ST18) Promised The holster on the front got broken (poor parking) hence the gaffer tape, but the unit was working when uninstalled a couple of years ago. Would only make sense to be installed where protected from rain/water ingress, and ideally out of reach of children.

Free: Micronta blood pressure monitor (faulty) (Bradley ST18) Powers on with 6v adapter (not supplied) and inflates but doesn't complete a reading (gets 'stuck' and seems to over inflate).
