Request:
Scooby Doo costume (to fit a medium sized adult) (Temple Cowley OX4)
Received
My group is going to a party in Scooby Doo themed fancy dress next weekend. I think I'm going to be Scooby Doo himself. I'll probably buy a costume, but before I do that I thought I'd ask if anyone nearby has one already. I can give it back afterwards if you like. Full or partial costume is fine.

Crafty bits (Temple Cowley OX4)
Gifted
A bag of crafty bits that might suit an older child or teenager. Includes fabric pens (slightly used), glass paints with a bit of glass and some bits of clear plastic to paint on, glitter glue, a balloon animal set (some balloons used, most still there), cotton wool, and a piece of blue sparkly stickyback plastic. Most of these have been in a drawer for a long time. I think they're in good condition but no promises.

Trolley (with wheel issues) (Temple Cowley OX4)
Gifted
Shopping trolley, only used once. This model I think: . The bag and frame are like new and one of the wheels is OK. Comes with a new pair of wheels which should fit but don't. Here's the story: My parents got me a trolley for Christmas. I used it to take my stuff home on the train. The trolley had a warning on it saying not to pull it down stairs, which I interpreted as "Be careful if pulling it down a flight of stairs, we won't be liable if you drop it on yourself" but actually meant "Pulling this down a single small step will cause a wheel to immediately and irreparably break". So that happened. The original wheels felt very light and flimsy, like something more suited to a doll's pram than a device for transporting heavy tins and vegetables, so I bought a sturdier pair like this: . Try as I might, I could not get them to fit onto the trolley. Later my parents got me another trolley which is second hand but better. If anyone is willing to put in the effort to get wheels onto the trolley (maybe a mix and match with another project?) you're welcome to the trolley and wheels.

Unused ducting bits e.g. for kitchen extractor fan (Temple Cowley OX4)
Gifted
Recently did a kitchen extractor fan DIY project that went a bit wrong- succeeded in the end but have some leftover bits. Would prefer if all could go together. - Grey 4-flap vent for a 125mm pipe. Brand new and comes with the screws and rawl plugs for installing it. - PVC flexible pipe, 1m length, 150mm diameter. Brand new and in its packet. - Aluminium semi-flexible pipe, ~53cm length when stretched out, 125mm diameter. This was cut off from a piece that we did use, so one end is slightly raggedy, but otherwise unused.
