Guillotine (Summertown OX2)
Gifted
This measures 55 cm x 17 cm. The handle is slightly bent, so you have to push a bit harder than if it wasn't - but it still cuts straight.

Dyson Hoover (Summertown OX2)
Gifted
This Dyson is quite a few years old. It was working well, but now the charging unit charges, but the Hoover only runs for a bit. A friend of mine said he would have a look, he thought it was something electrical and fixable. But he never does and now another friend has given me her old one, because she has a new one. SO I am releasing this into the wild of Freegle. If anyone who is more tekkie than me wants to have a go at mending it? Or parts might be useful??

china and glass ornamental animals (Summertown OX2)
Gifted
The penguin and peacock are glass, the rest china. I collected these as a girl in the late 1960s/early 1970. Hippo, rabbit and tortoise families still perfect. Big Ears has lost a bit of paint on his shoe. Elephant on the back of the line has a bit off the bottom of one leg. The Bambi characters are oldest and have all got some damage, badly mended (although a friend who is handier than me says you can get it off and start again). The Lady and the Tramp family - Lady and Scamp are perfect But Tramp is missing a leg. Person who will take them all will get them - I can't throw even the damaged ones away!

Old Dyson (Summertown OX2)
Gifted
Faithful old Dyson. It works BUT it only has the main brush and a smaller brush (see pic) AND the cord has got twisted. Only the amount of cord you can see in the pic come out. You can see where it is twisted and if you had more agile fingers your might well be able to untwist it ....

large curtain (Summertown OX2)
Gifted
This large, very colourful curtain is beautifully made - lined and possibly also insulated (it's very thick). We got it as a temporary measure to keep draughts out and it certainly did. It is 110cm long. The top end measures 200cm across - but the bottom is 395cm, so the top could be let out.

mother and child lamp (Summertown OX2)
Gifted
We bought this quite a while ago, then changed the front room lighting and didn't use it. When I took the photo I tried it to see if it worked and it didn't - but it might be a fuse in the switch or a loose connection ... I am not at all competent with wires ... It could be worth taking if you are happy to fiddle with the electrics/plug/bulbs. It is 1m80cm high and the base (widest bit) is 27cm.

Bought this Salter balance scale in about 1972. It is cast iron with a brass pan and cast iron weights from 2lb to 1/4 oz. Used it constantly up to about 2000. It then spend time in the garage, because I wasn't willing to part with it. This was a mistake and it now needs tlc. Still accurate.
