Mahogany framed mirror (Central Lancaster LA1)
This mahogany framed mirror could be hung on a wall but it was designed to go on the stand, which is also made of mahogany. In order to do that securely, the stand needs to be repaired. It has the potential to look very handsome on a chest of drawers, or on a wall without the stand. I live near Lancaster railway station. Please say when you can come for it. Don't say 'any time' because it's not helpful. Thanks.

Tablet case, Liberty fabric covered (Central Lancaster LA1)
Gifted
This case for a tablet computer has been hand-covered with Liberty fabric. It has a magnetic fastener. I used it with a Samsung Galaxy tablet, which is not included in the offer. The Galaxy is 194mm x 122mm but I think that the case would also work with tablets up to 200mm x 135mm, for example iPad mini 2. Please say when you would like to come for it. I live near Lancaster railway station.

Spare ear pieces for Sennheiser headset. (Central Lancaster LA1)
Expired
I have a Sennheiser Presence wireless headset that works fine but the bit that goes in the ear doesn't fit in my ear very well. I don't have the alternative size silicone bits to try, but perhaps you might have some lying unwanted in a drawer? I would be very grateful. Thanks, Rebecca.

Galvanised dolly tub adapted for a twirly washing line (Central Lancaster LA1)
Gifted
This galvanised dolly tub/bin has a washing line socket set in concrete in it, so that plants can be grown in soil around it. Please take the washing line too. The dolly bin is heavy, so if you want it, be prepared for that! If you want to remove some or all of the soil to make it lighter to move, that would be ok. It will only have to be moved about 5 metres to where a vehicle could be parked in the ginnel for loading. Please say when you can come for it.

Toy koala (Central Lancaster LA1)
Gifted
This toy koala is made from opossum fur. Opossums are invasive species in Australia and not to be confused with the native possums. To give people an incentive to hunt the opossums, they are made into items for sale, which helps to fund this conservation work protecting native species. My aunt sent this as a present for my kids when they were little. Two of its feet are missing. I live near Lancaster railway station. Please say when you can come for it.

Gifted
This is a large poster of a painting by Claude Monet, of his now famous garden at Giverny. It's approximately 61cm tall and 92cm wide. It's in excellent condition as it's been in a tube since new, I think. It would look great framed. Please say when you would like to come for it. Thanks, Rebecca.
