Computer speakers (Blencarn CA10)
Anyone need a set of small speakers? 30cm ruler for scale. They're pretty loud. I used to use them for watching a film on the laptop and they were great. Collection from Blencarn or Penrith.

Plastic filing cases (Blencarn CA10)
I have two A4 filing cases going spare. They're in good condition, except that the closure catches are broken on both of them. They vaguely stay closed when there's not muich in them but you'd just need to put a rubber band or something on them to keep them shut if they're full or you're carrying them by the handles as they gape open then. For a handover, I'm in Blencarn, but am in Penrith a few times a week if that helps.

Selection of printer cartridges (Blencarn CA10)
Cartridges from a few different types of printers. Some new and still sealed. Others were taken out after the printers themselves stopped working. A few were brand new, in an attempt to get one of the printers going. If you've got a printer that uses them, it'd be great if someone could get some use out of them. Collection from Blencarn or Penrith.

HDMI cable (Blencarn CA10)
Withdrawn
If anyone has a spare standard HDMI to HDMI cable, I'd really appreciate it. I seem to have 10 of every other cable known to man except an HDMI! Thank you very much.

Sturdy stakes for trees (Blencarn CA10)
Expired
I need to stake up some youngish trees and need some sturdy stakes around 5 feet long or longer. Some of the trees need posts or battens, and thick canes would work for some that are smaller. If anyone has any lying around, they'd be much appreciated. Thank you.

Antique billiard/snooker light (Blencarn CA10)
Expired
Large light fitting for a billiard table, made by E J Riley Ltd, makers of billiard/snooker tables and accessories. It's been lying around in the shed for years so is pretty scruffy but in good structural condition. Collection only from Blencarn (10 miles from Penrith).

Office desk (Blencarn CA10)
Expired
This is a large office desk with 2 drawers. It's been in the shed for a long time and the veneer on the top has split in places. Drawer handles are missing. But the structure of it is very sound. Metal frame. It could be cleaned up and used as it is, or upcycled. I upcycled an identical one, by putting sanded pallet boards on top of the original surface, it and it worked really well (see last 2 photos). Note: The one I'm giving away is the one in the first 8 photos... not the one in last 2! Collection only from Blencarn (10 miles from Penrith).

Mobile phone that takes mini SIM (Blencarn CA10)
Expired
Does anyone have an old mobile phone that takes the bigger standard size of SIM? My stepdad's phone no longer works properly but he has quite a bit of top-up credit on his current SIM, which is one of the old larger SIMs (mini, as opposed to the newer micro or nano SIMs). A phone with physical number buttons would be ideal as he'd struggle with the more modern on-screen keyboards. He only uses it to make/receive the odd phone call. Thanks very much.

Request:
Yew, Holly or Juniper trees (Blencarn CA10)
Received
We're putting in a new stretch of hedge and want it to be UK native evergreen. If anyone is planning to remove any Yew, Holly or Juniper trees, we'd be very grateful for them. We're after ones that are about waist height or slightly higher. Just standard UK native varieties... not variegated or special varieties. We'll obviously come and dig them out for you. Thanks very much indeed.

Blackcurrant or redcurrant bushes (Blencarn CA10)
Received
Hello, does anyone have any blackcurrant or redcurrant bushes that you want to remove? I have an area of the garden that's no longer suitable for growing veg so I'd like to dedicate it to my favourite fruit! Any size would be much appreciated. Thanks very much.

Scanner (Blencarn CA10)
Expired
This is a combined flatbed scanner and printer, but the printer side of things isn't working. (It does print, but I can't get the black ink to work... the other colours do work.) It could be useful if you just need a scanner. It's an HP Photosmart 5510. Collection from Blencarn or can arrange a handover in Penrith.
