Request: Old rope for rope ladder (West Meads PO21) Hi there, looking for some ripe to use for a rope ladder. I have a young tree climber wannabe desperate for me to make him one.

Free: Five reusable advent calendars (West Meads PO21) Gifted Five lovely ex fortnum and mason (don’t judge me they were gifts) advent calendars I’ve kept to reuse them never have. Been in the loft but seem in decent condition, I’ve wiped off any dust from the tops and they’ve been closed the whole time. Coaster for scale. Quite big and sturdy! Let me know how many and which ones you’d like. Pet and smoke free home. Fair warning. We have a small child who is playing with them, they’re huge and I can’t put them back in the loft so may get a bit bashed up if not collected this week 😅

Free: Moon and start crochet kit (West Meads PO21) Gifted Got this in the January sales last year. Box is a bit bashed but I expect it’s all there as I’ve not used it. Decided amigrumi type crochet is not the hobby for me! Coming from a pet and smoke free home.

Free: Dino crochet kit (West Meads PO21) Gifted I’ve started this, and cannot find the hook, but it’s just not a hobby I’m going to stay with. Could frog it and start again or just use the pattern and materials 🙂 Pet and smoke free home.

Request: Needle felting bits (wool/roving) (West Meads PO21) Expired Hi there, I did a class last week and am keen to have a go at home. I’m intending to buy a needle set and some wool but if anyone has any, even small offcuts in the Bognor area which they don’t want anymore, I would gladly rehome them. I’m planning on teaching my friends daughter so even having some smaller bits of other colours would be much appreciated. (I don’t have routine access to a car so while I appreciate offers from further afield anything beyond Felpham, Pagham or Chichester is likely to be too far so please don’t be offended if I politely decline)

Request: Room Divider or Screen (West Meads PO21) Expired Looking for something to hide the atrocity that is our conservatory...can’t do much with it but if we close curtains it make the room super dark and miserable. Wondered if anyone had a screen or two (I know I’d be super lucky!) as I thought might obscure while letting light trough/round. Have tried net curtains but need something a bit more...substantial! Please and thank you.

Request: Willow (West Meads PO21) Expired Is anyone trimming a willow in the locality? I whipped this up at the duck pond out of two small windfall pieces and my toddler was mesmerised. I’d love to show him how to make one or two of his own if anyone has any?

Request: Age 3-4 dodgy kids tops and bottoms (West Meads PO21) Expired Strange one...I almost always buy secondhand (economy...environment) but having just cracked out the 3-4 clothes for my little one, they’re all beautiful condition.

Request: 16mm tube/straw (West Meads PO21) Received Really specific but I rescued an awesome toy from a charity shop today. I didn’t know at the time that it was missing a key part, a 16mm outer diameter firm plastic tube/straw. I can return it but they’re just gonna throw it away if I do that. Wondered if anyone had anything maybe suitable? It’s a stomp rocket so needs to permit air flow and be rigid to fit in the base and the rockets. The company don’t do spare parts.

Request: Pea sticks (West Meads PO21) Received I made too many tomato plants and don’t have enough stakes to support…does anyone have any thin bamboo or any sort of sticks I can use to support the plants? 🙈

Request: Picture hanging cord 🤷‍♀️2m (West Meads PO21) Received I guess most sorts of cord would work 🤷‍♀️. I’ve got a big picture frame and picture of us for Father’s Day for the other half, sorted the fixings etc but don’t have any cord. With Wilko gone I’m not sure where to get it and feel like buying a whole spool online when I need like 2m is wasteful🤔…so I wondered if anyone on here had any cord suitable for hanging a pretty heavy a3 wood and glass picture frame above a fireplace? 😬 I can collect most days if you’re near Bognor/Aldwick. Thanks in advance 👍

Request: Small pins (West Meads PO21) Expired I’m looking for about 12 of these small pins. I’m making my husband a Father’s Day picture using old frames and they’re missing some pins. Hoping to get some free pins to save a few pennies. Also don’t really want to have to buy a whole box just for like 12 pins 🙈😅
