Free: Kenwood food processor for accessories + spares or repair (Shoreham-by-Sea BN43) Kenwood multi pro, FP730 series, 900W food processor: about 15 years old, not used frequently BUT needs repairing. Problem: motor not working properly (when the power/speed dial is turned there's a brief, weak sound of activity, which then stops). I haven't investigated the cause or if it's repairable, but as we rarely used it we've decided to free up space in the kitchen and pass it on to someone who might be able to bring it to life and get some use out of it. It comes complete with all the original accessories (many of which have never been used), instructions and recipe book.

Free: Soft toy (lamb) made from kit (Shoreham-by-Sea BN43) Gifted I made this from a kit many years ago and as you can see I didn't assemble it very well (especially attaching the head - see close up picture), so it doesn't really resemble a lamb! It wouldn't be difficult to make it better, but I no longer have the time or the inclination, so I'd love to pass it on to someone who does, and maybe it could bring pleasure to someone young or old.

Free: Old keys (Shoreham-by-Sea BN43) Gifted Assorted redundant keys! Can anyone use them for arty/crafty purposes? If not I'll recycle them.

Free: Ice-maker for freezer (new/unused) (Shoreham-by-Sea BN43) Gifted Two ice cube trays with ice cube storage underneath. Twist the knob and the ice cubes in the tray empty into the container below. Excellent if you use lots of ice and have room in your freezer. Dimensions: 23.9cm long x 13cm high x 15.8cm wide. This came with our freezer (Hi Sense, but would probably fit other brands) and has never been used. It's a great idea, but we rarely use ice and prefer to have the extra space for food.
