Free: Jewellery Making Magazines (L) (Haywards Heath RH16) These magazines are over 10years old, but the techniques are probably much the same & styles and colours can be adapted to suit....not that the designs look at all dated. When I have finished browsing through them, there will be more editions available (nothing more recent though). If interested please say when you can collect (Haywards Heath, Ashenground Road area).

Free: Baseball hat (Haywards Heath RH16) Withdrawn One-size (it says on the label) adult’s grey baseball cap, from M&S (it also says on the label). The picture isn’t very good because I had no-one to model it & the sun kept shining all over the place, and I was in a rush, but the hat is plain grey and in perfect condition. If interested please say when you can collect (Ashenground Road area).

Free: CARD-MAKING MAGAZINES (hh) (Haywards Heath RH16) Some old magazines with lots of ideas and tips for making greetings cards.

If interested, please leave a contact number so we can arrange collection. Thank you.

Free: Jewellery Making Magazines (Haywards Heath RH16) These magazines date from about 2012, but hey... jewellery is jewellery, and the techniques are probably the same. If interested, please leave a contact number to arrange collection. Thank you.

Free: Friendly Farmyard Puppet (Haywards Heath RH16) Would anyone like to give this friendly animal a new home and a purpose in life? He (or it might be a she) has been lodging with me for many years, doing absolutely nothing. She (or it may be a he) says, “I’m one of those puppets where you put your arm up through my body section, and into my head, so you can make my head and mouth move. I have lost one eye, but it is probably replaceable. I have been living with this woman for many years, mostly inside a drawer, with an occasional trip outside...outside of the drawer that is... but what I REALLY want to do is find a new role in life, maybe as an entertainer, where I can achieve my full potential.” So there you are, folks. Would anyone like to help this poor creature find their true role in life? Please?

6d

Free: Book of Craft Ideas (Haywards Heath RH16) Book of craft ideas for youngsters. Or for any oldersters if they want to have a go! Keep them off the screens, and doing something creative instead. Book for collection from Ashenground Road area....please say when you’d like to collect.

Free: bats! (Haywards Heath RH16) Gifted These bats have a mesh area for whacking whatever you’re whacking, so you’ll need to whack something soft, like a small sponge ball or a rolled up sock. That means, of course, that this could be a good game for children in the garden or elsewhere.... no injuries or broken windows. And if the sock-ball goes over the fence or gets stuck up a tree, you can easily replace it. So there’s another advantage...you can now use up those odd socks you’ve got hanging about! If you want these amazing play items, please let me know, and say when you can collect them. Ashenground Road area.

Request: Tea urn (bh) (Haywards Heath RH16) Does anyone have, or have access to, a tea urn that they (or whoever) no longer want, please? We’re hoping to get one that we can use for melting a quantity of wax, so it will need to be in working order and also have a concealed heating element. We’d be very grateful & it would be put to very good use. Thank you.

Free: MORE Grape Hyacinth Bulbs! (Haywards Heath RH16) Gifted I’ve just dug up even MORE of these bulbs! Any takers? It seems a shame to put them in the green bin, which is due to be emptied next Tuesday. Better get in quick!😄 Collection from Ashenground Road area

Free: Plants (Haywards Heath RH16) Gifted I have at last got round to doing a bit of gardening and there are a few bits I want to get rid of. There are grape hyacinth bulbs mixed in with a few bluebell bulbs (their bulbs all look the same to me!) and some golden rod plants (the insects love those flowers) & I can dig up some flowering forget-me-nots if anyone wants some. Any takers? If interested , please say when you can collect from Ashenground Road.🌱

Free: 5 Little Jam Pots (Haywards Heath RH16) Gifted If you’re planning on making some jam or marmalade, why not use these pots to treat five people to a sample of your wares? I bet they’d be thrilled! And as the pots are this little, there should still be lots left for you😄. Collection...if you want them...from the Ashenground Road area. (The pen is just there to indicate the size of the jars.)

Free: 2-Seater Sofa (Haywards Heath RH16) 2-seater leather sofa. The leather is in quite good condition, but the seat on the left (as you sit on the sofa) sinks a bit as the owner plonked onto the sofa rather than elegantly seated himself. The seat cushions are fixed, so you can't fix the support webbing, but it’s still comfy and the other seat is fine. There’s no fire label on it as current owner removed it early on because she didn’t like it showing🤪. It will need two strong men and a van if you want to bag this lovely bit of furniture from the Rocky Drive area of Haywards Heath. If you’re interested, please leave a contact number so we can arrange collection. Thank you.

12d

Free: Two Sprays of flowers or seed heads (Haywards Heath RH16) Sprays of artificial (they’re plastic!) seed heads. Or possibly flowers. I’m not sure what plant they are supposed to represent, but they could look quite lovely or realistic or something in the appropriate container and/or with some companion artificial plants. Or some real ones. Whatever, if you would like to have these items, please say when you can collect them (Ashenground Road area).🌱🦠

20d

Free: Black purse (Haywards Heath RH16) Black purse....looks like leather, but may not be, as there are no labels to say it is. It’s unused, but has been stored away for quite a while, so doesn’t look quite as pristine as new. Lots of pockets & couple of spaces for photos or I.D. card. If interested please say when you can collect (Ashenground Road area).

Request: Tea urn (Haywards Heath RH16) Does anyone have, or have access to, a tea urn that they (or whoever) no longer want, please? We’re after one to use for melting a quantity of wax, so it would need to be one with a concealed heating element, please. Obviously it doesn’t have to be like the one pictured above....we’ll be grateful for whatever we can get, as long as it works & has a concealed heating element. Thank you very much.

Free: Jacket (Haywards Heath RH16) Lightweight ‘jacket’. No labels in it, but feels like it’s made of polyester, it’s not lined & it measures about 24inches across the back from seam to seam, so, I’m just guessing , it’s probably size 16 or 18. If interested, please say when you can collect (Ashenground Road area). Thanks.

Free: Mattress protection (Haywards Heath RH16) Gifted Mattress cover, lightly quilted, flat (i.e. not a fitted one) and it measures 2metres by 140cm, so it should cover the top of a double mattress, if my calculation is correct.
