Partially working fairy lights (Kennington OX1)
A long string of 'old-fashioned' (i.e. not LED) fairy lights, partially working. Originally this was a very long string which has been broken. This section (still several metres) has at least three working sections and potentially could be fully working if the faulty bulbs could be identified. Includes a tub of bulbs taken from the broken off end, most of which are probably working. It needs someone with the time and patience to work through to identify and replace the problem bulbs. Collect from Kennington, please say when you could come.

Free:
Base of a small oil lamp (Kennington OX1)
Base of a small oil lamp. At least I think that's what it is, although I have no idea how you could actually fill it! The base is the size to fit on the palm of your hand and sounds as though it's filled with something like gravel. It still has a wick, and the winding mechanism works. Collect from Kennington please say when you could come.

Small piece of mink fur (Kennington OX1)
Gifted
Small piece of real mink fur. About 20 x 10 cm. Before you bite my head off, I have inherited this from family ancestors. Since it's already here it seems a waste to bin it. Any takers?

Lavender scented candle wax (Kennington OX1)
Gifted
Lavender scented candle wax. Vintage. The instructions tell you to put a weighted wick into your desired container and pour in the wax granules. However it must have been used because there is no longer a wick in the box. Plenty of wax though and I think I might have a few wicks somewhere. Collect from Kennington, please say when you could come.

Kneeling chair (Kennington OX1)
Gifted
Kneeling/ posture chair. Good condition, adjustable height. I would take it to the charity shop but not sure they would accept it as no fire label. I think someone might have re-covered it in the past. Collect from Kennington, or I may be able to deliver if not too far out of my way.

Bouncy cushion (Kennington OX1)
Square cushion, very bouncy, I have no idea what this can be made of inside, maybe rubber? It's too rounded to fit on a chair. Maybe good for a child to sit on the floor? Collect from Kennington please say when you could come

Collection of lock-related bits (Kennington OX1)

Several lock parts, but none of the actual barrel mechanism or keys. I guess you could still use them to lock a door on the inside, like a bolt. Also a couple of the plates to get hold of to pull a door shut if you have a Yale type lock. Collect from Kennington, please say when you could come.
