Merrythoughts Donkey push along with wheels (Summertown OX2)
Gifted
This is a Vintage COLLECTABLE, in modern levels of safety, not really suitable as a modern toy as the materials it is made from may not be safe. It would be a great fixer upper. The donkey has a Harrods label on its tummy. The Merrythoughts label is on the metal frame. It has seen better days. **The nose is secured with tape. The stuffing is wood wood so NOT fire resistant. It is pretty much dry by the radiator after being out in a bit of rain well over a week ago. Please give time slot[s] and day[s] for collection. This will be covered/wrapped and left out for collection.

Metal tub/planter (Summertown OX2)
Gifted
Relatively light, like a tin tub. Approximate dimensions are HxWx D are26 x 49x 35 at the top. You can see it tapers to the base. There are some holes I made for drainage to keep it from collecting water. The metal seemed to keep slugs and snails off as well. I used it for salad greens with no real problems from them. Please give the relevant collectiom details. This will be left out for remote collection from the Summertown area.

Offering on the off chance someone might want these, otherwise they will go into landfill on Friday. They originally held fertiliser or bird feed.
