Roofing felt (Sheddingdean RH15)
Does anyone have a couple of meters of roofing felt available? I had a new wooden BBQ station made this year (from pallets!) and want to make a cover to protect it from the winter weather. Thanks!

Garden trolley - no wheels (Sheddingdean RH15)
Gifted
This originally my friend's and it had an axle and wheels and was used to carry garden rubbish when tidying up the garden. However, the axle broke so for years I've been using it filled with soil for growing tomatoes in. If you have an axle and a pair of wheels it could be used for its original purpose or else you could use it as I did, as a tub for plants. It will be going to the dump on Tuesday if not given away here.

Candles, burner oil, etc (Sheddingdean RH15)
I've sorted out my candle collection. One or two of these items have been used and all are old but there's lots of life left in them. To go as one bundle, please, I will not separate them.

Fake leather belt (Sheddingdean RH15)
108cm plus long dangly tassels. It doesn't have a buckle, you'd have to tie it, it's really just for decoration, but it's quite cool!

Box of 100. Acetate sheets with paper backing, the kind we used to use in photocopiers to produce visual aids for overhead projectors! Schools probably don't use these any more but I wondered if they might be useful for craft projects.

Torch (Sheddingdean RH15)
Expired
6.5ins long, takes two size C batteries, I think. I HAVE NO IDEA IF IT WORKS! Sorry, but it's very old and hasn't been used in a long time. I don't have any of the right size batteries, it just seems a shame to put the torch in landfill if there's a possibility it might be useful to someone.

Pallet breaker (Sheddingdean RH15)
Expired
I'm really getting into making stuff out of pallets and a breaker would make the job a lot easier, if anyone has one they no longer need.

Large plastic drum (Sheddingdean RH15)
Gifted
Used as a water butt but it doesn't have a tap for a watering can, so I used to have to siphon the water out. Have got frustrated with it so bought a proper water butt now. 23" across the top, 37" high.
