Free: 3 packs of toothpicks (Haywards Heath RH16) Three sealed packs of plastic toothpicks (new, unopened, unused, obviously) with 100 in each pack. I ordered lots as they were cheaper per unit, even though there’s far more than I’d ever use! What a twit I am! Never mind, maybe 1, 2 or 3 people may benefit from it. If interested (for your teeth’s sake or maybe for an art project or something)) let me know how many of the packs you’d like, & when you might collect. Ashenground Road area.

Free: Electric carving knife (Haywards Heath RH16) This knife hasn’t been used very much & has been in the cupboard unused for ages. It’s clean & works fine. If anyone wants it please make sure an adult comes to collect it. (Not that I’ve ever had any person other than an adult come to collect anything, but best to be on the safe side.😁) Thank you.

Free: Bubble tubes (Haywards Heath RH16) These tubes (each is 11cm/4inches tall) are empty, but I can’t bring myself to throw them away, as they could be filled & re-used. Big bottles of bubble liquid are available from supermarkets for that very purpose. Is there anyone out there who would like to use them, maybe for party or wedding favours? Or just to give away to any children (or even adults!) as an ‘unbirthday gift’ or something? Or maybe use them in some artistic project? Probably best if they all go together. If interested, please say when you’d like to collect them…I can leave them outside for you (Ashenground Road area).

Free: Pompon making gadget (Haywards Heath RH16) Clover brand PomPom maker. There are instructions with it, and there are instructions-with-demonstrations available on YouTube. It looks as if this gadget makes one-size pom-poms about 4.5 inches in diameter. Any takers? Collection from Ashenground Road area.

Free: Two armchairs (Haywards Heath RH16) Withdrawn Two sturdy armchairs, with the covers a bit worn and faded in places, as you can see from the pictures. The current owners need the space and are giving them away…but very reluctantly, as the chairs are very comfy, have no ‘sag’, and there’s lots of life left in them. Approximate overall size of each chair: height: 85cm; width: 91cm; depth: 97cm. Collection from Lindfield, near the Common. Please leave me a phone number so we can arrange collection.

Free: Bridesmaid/Flower Girl accessories (hh) (Haywards Heath RH16) Withdrawn Two ‘Flower balls’ & two flowers/ribbons to clip in the bridesmaids’ hair. Sorry I don’t know the correct names for these items. I sure there’s something much posher than I came up with! Whatever, they’ve only been used once, and are clean, but have got a bit squashed while in storage, so could do with a freshen up. This shouldn’t be a problem with a bit of patient fiddling & maybe a slight damp spray. Any takers? They’re very pretty & would probably cost a bit new, so I’ll wait awhile to give more people a chance to reply; then I’ll choose according to the replies I get (if any). 😁
