Free: Well seasoned Eucalyptus logs for outside use in a fire tip (Pitchcombe GL6) Gifted Well seasoned dry eucalyptus wood for out door use only. It burns really fiercely so perfect for outdoor use and doesn’t seem to smoke badly but have had to give it away as we don’t use fire pits here. Please do not entertain idea of putting it in your woodburner indoors! It will tar your chimney very fast and the fierce heat may damage your wood burner. It’s brilliant as I burnt stuff on my bonfire and gave off super heat! Please stare when you can collect. The sooner the better please. We are around all day today. No messing about please. Please bring your own carrier of sorts. Bring bags & note steps are involved so you need strong arms.

Free: Canon printer Pixma MH6150 with instructions (Pitchcombe GL6) Gifted Black. Was in working order but I was trying to print but printer wasn’t printing and at the time I couldn’t find instructions how to clean heads etc… so I bought a new printer as needed one to work. This printer I’m offering is a really good one. I believe it will work properly once heads etc are cleaned. Instructions and trouble shooting instructions were found so you are welcome to give it a good chance to make it work properly.

Request: A raised toilet seat, a raised small for use in shower (Pitchcombe GL6) Expired My dear man has just had a very major operation and is about to come home after 11 days in hospital. He is still struggling to wash himself in the shower without grab rails or walking frame as stomach muscles are dreadfully bruised and sore from operation. So lowering oneself onto toilet seat or sitting to enable near proximity to wash legs and feet is still tricky. So a stool or walking frame to steady himself and a raised seat so it's not so far to sit down for toilet would be jolly handy. Has anyone got anything like that that they no longer need or use please?

Free: A 66 bottle Wine Rack (Pitchcombe GL6) Gifted This wine rack is still useable despite having seen better days. A paint and a bit of a mend would help but most of it is still absolutely functional and worthy of being used. My thoughts were perhaps there was a keen wine/ cordial maker who gets empty bottles and needs somewhere to stack them out of the way in the garage or shed. If no one responses then sadly I will have to take it to the tip which is a real shame but my garage will be demolished soon so no where to put it in the house. Had I a pantry in the house I would have done it up and brought it indoors!

Free: Ex conservatory Wooden windows in good order. (Pitchcombe GL6) Gifted I have about 4-5 ex conservatory exceptional quality wooden white windows made of some kind of hardwood that withstands wet conditions! There is no glass with it so this will need to be factored in. The space is suitable for double glazing easily. I used what I needed for my orangery to save money and had new windows fitted. If you would like to create your own outdoor room, now's your chance to make them. Two I think are long floor to ceiling and about 40cm wide and 3 I think are about 195 cm by about 79cm so nice sized windows. I haven't measured them for accuracy as it's raining and too heavy for me to move! You are welcome to view but best done as soon as possible as will need to get rid of them as am having my decking replaced around my summer house. They are currently sheltering under cover of plastic or under extension of summer house roof.

I may find more if you require more. They are not brand new but still serviceable. I cannot dissemble them so a big boot would be useful.

I am just a mile and a half north of Stroud just off the A46 by about 40 metres up hill. and near to the A4173 exit off A46. Please note I am deaf and cannot hear on phone as was deaf from birth.
