Free: Martial Arts Suits - Two (Breadsall DE21) They are small size, so up to 36" chest and 26" waist, and about 5'3" or so tall. Can be worn loose or with belt. The tops are NOT wrap around style (as in karate), but pull over the head, with a mandarin style collar. Both tops have an "iron on" badge on left side of chest, but a sew on club badge would cover that up. Both suits are made from heavy cotton. Been in storage for several years, so needs a good wash. Give me an idea of why you'd like it and possible collection times. I will be making a decision in a couple of days to allow more people to see the offer.

Free: Treadmill (Breadsall DE21) Gifted This is a mains powered treadmill. Been in storage for a long time, but was working when put away. It's fairly light weight and folds away neatly. Ideally would need to be collected on a Wednesday between 12 and 2 - as it's not at my house. However other arrangements may be possible. Please say if you could do the Wednesday in your reply though.

Free: Desktop Train and Tracks (Breadsall DE21) Gifted Pretty little American style train to PUSH round the track. Track and engine outer case, and waggons are in great condition. Unfortunately someone had left the batteries in for a long time and the wires etc had corroded through. Also the motor seems to have been affected. So, the internal bits are included but probably best to think of it as a push-along rather than battery operated!

Free: Unusual, Vintage Knee-hole Desk (Breadsall DE21) Gifted Unusual and quirky knee- hole desk from, at a guess, early 20th century. The top is removable for transporting. It's got a very odd shaping at the back- clearly sat over something originally! Measurements: width 42" /107cm, height 13 1/2" /34cm, depth 201/2" /52.5cm. The "cut out" at back is11" /28cm high and 6 1/2" /16cm deep. The Knee-hole is 12 1/2"/ 32cm wide, and side pediments are each 13 1/2" /34cm wide. I think that it would fit in an estate car. Ideally, to be collected on a Wednesday between 12-30 and 2 as it's not at my house. Please say if you can do that in your reply. Will give a couple of days so more people get a chance to respond.

Free: Moses Basket with Hood (Breadsall DE21) Gifted This has been in storage so the fabric would benefit from a wash, but it's a lovely item. We are not quite sure how the hood should fit but it seems to work ok with being tied! As you can see, it has a waterproof mattress. Needs a small stitch of the straw near one handle. Obviously totally suitable for a baby, and I have seen people using them as pet beds! Collection will need to be organised in advance as it's not at my house.

Free: Wicker Work Tub Chair (Breadsall DE21) Gifted A very pretty little wicker work tub chair, in excellent condition. It's about 19" wide and 28" tall. I can imagine it sitting happily in a conservatory. Please say why you would like it! I shall allow a couple of days before making a decision, as per fair offer policy.

Free: Vintage Peugeot Racing Bicycle (Breadsall DE21) Gifted I understand that this is a bit of a classic of it's kind- something about the 1st to have whatever sort of gears it has, or something! (I'm not a cyclist!).There is also a tray of totally random bicycle related bits, that you can see in the picture, if you want them too (let me know). I'm told that traditional frames are sized by the seat tube, and the measurement from the centre of the crank to top of seat tube is 25 inches. It's been in a garage for probably 20 years and is quite grubby with surface rust, and that's breaking into the chrome in places. The tyres are knackered. It belonged to a now deceased friend, and I want to find it a good home. Please tell me why you'd like it! I'll be giving it a few days before offering it so everyone gets a chance to see the post! Collection will be by arrangement a few days in advance as it's not at my house and I'll need to bring it round.

Request: Window (glass and frame) (Breadsall DE21) Expired Wanted for a shed. The current opening is 80cm x 56cm. So that would be the ideal size but could make it work if slightly larger (width up to 82cm but lots more flexible on the height) or smaller, because I can add surrounds! Can collect 🙂 from most places.
