Request: Metal curtain pole brackets (Earls Barton NN6) Expired I'm looking for metal curtain pole brackets (a bit like the one in this picture), diameter 28mm. If anyone has some to spare, I'd be most grateful. Thank you.

75d

Free: Self-adhesive floor tiles (Earls Barton NN6) Gifted 56 self-adhesive floor tiles. From Pep&Co Home 30x30cm each I got these from another Freegler, for someone else but they have moved house so don't need the tiles now. The tiles are fairly thin and might be useful for a shed floor or garage. Might also be suitable if your current flooring is really sad and needs a little uplift. As they are fairly thin, I am not sure how much foot traffic it could take. Please note that the photo is taken off Poundland's website. It is the same pattern that you'll be getting.

Free: Chest Freezer (about 190 litre capacity) (Earls Barton NN6) Expired A Norfrost Aura chest freezer, about 190 litres to 200 litres capacity. It could do with a replacement seal as the current one is worn but because it is a chest freezer, food will still stay well frozen as the cold air sinks. As it is, the freezer works best as a spare for occasional bulk freezing --- eg. if you have a party and need extra freezer space. If using the freezer for an extended time, it is best to get the seal replaced.

Free: Fridge Freezer (Earls Barton NN6) Expired This is an old fridge freezer which still works, and could be helpful to someone who is in need of a fridge freezer. Dimensions approximately Height 180cm Depth 60cm Width 59cm Please note: 1. The thermostat on the fridge stopped working a few years ago and we'd replaced it with an external thermostat, so this sits on top of the fridge (externally). 2. The fridge and freezer can be operated independently of each other. 3. The seal on the freezer is worn. This could be replaced. When we use the freezer, we push something heavy against the door so that it seals better, and it works. This fridge freezer is still working and usable (though inconvenient), hence we have been reluctant to replace it. However, due to circumstantial demands, we have to move it on. We were about to bring it to the tip but feel that it could be handy to someone in need of a fridge freezer.
