Free: Clean ladies tights with no holes or ladders! Medium. (Dysart KY1) Expired Since retiring, I rarely wear tights. These are all in perfectly good condition, I have checked, but charity shops only want packaged ones. They are tan or dark brown/grey, medium size. If someone wants them for wearing, I could add some black ones. They could also be used for stuffing cushions or toys or other craft items?

Free: Used bathroom carpet, washable, + new offcut. (Dysart KY1) Expired I have just replaced my bathroom carpet. See before and after photos. Most carpet sellers have stopped selling this and they may discontinue making them. This carpet was laid in 2009 and apparently it can be lifted and put in a washing machine! Who knew? It does not require underlay and was stuck to tiles with some double sided tape. It would need cleaned. I have shown the measurements in feet and meters. There are cut outs for where the basin and toilet and bath were but having replaced it with a very similar Jade green carpet, I also have an off cut the size of the bath insert from the new carpet.

Free: Plums for jam? (Dysart KY1) Gifted I have two remaining plum trees, haven’t been pruned properly at the right time of year, have produced plums which would be suitable for jam, they would need to be picked quite soon as they’ve started falling off but no wasp attack yet! See photos. I have a step ladder But I can’t reach or climb a ladder myself to pick them. But I can hold it for someone else!
