Autumn fruiting raspberry canes (Ellesmere Port CH65) Dug up ready for replanting. These raspberries really spread in good soil, and produce loads of fruit from late summer right through autumn. Sorry, I don't know the name of the variety, mine were a gift from a friend thinning his plot. They don't need too much attention once they're planted - water in hot weather and cut down to the ground after they've finished fruiting. There are lots of roots available but they could do with planting soon. Collection from Ellesmere Port.

Garden parasol with stand (Ellesmere Port CH65) Gifted Green and white striped parasol. Lightweight, so needs tying down or will blow away! The base is hollow to fill with sand or water. All parts are there except bung, went missing while it was stored in a shed. (We tried replacing it with a wine cork but it went right through the hole and is still inside the base.)

Antique oak dining chairs x4 (Ellesmere Port CH65) Gifted Four solid, early 20th century ca 1916, oak dining chairs. In their lifetime with us (40 years) they have been professionally reglued and repolished. We reupholstered them ourselves, so there is no fire safety label but the Sanderson fabric on top meets modern standards. There is nothing wrong with the chairs except the style is inappropriate for our modern terraced house. Collection from Ellesmere Port.

Large extending dining table (Ellesmere Port CH65) Gifted This table was in use until last week, seating up to twelve people. It's now too big for our needs, downsizing. 3'/91cms wide by 4'5"/131cms extending with two extra leaves stored underneath the table top when not in use. Two people need to lift the table carefully, not push or drag it. One of the four legs has a split at the top (see photo) which could be repaired with strong glue, it is stabilised with a screw at the moment. Right now the table is in the car and we will deliver it within Wirral or Chester areas within the next 24 hours.

Two peace lilies in terracotta pots (Ellesmere Port CH65) Gifted Spathophyllum transplanted in spring and left in a cold frame, as an experiment. They didn't like it much outside but there's still some healthy growth at the heart of both plants. If they're brought indoors now and given tlc they will probably recover fine. Trouble is I don't have a space for them indoors. Can anyone find a space for two young houseplants? Or just one? In real terracotta pots.
