Free: Water glass (Llanishen CF14) Smallish water glass. I think it's originally from IKEA. Collect from Llanishen.

19h

Free: 3 saucer-style champagne glasses (Llanishen CF14) Three champagne glasses. Please note they are the flat saucer-style "coupe" type of champagne glasses, not the flute kind. Collect from Llanishen. I'm also giving away a small Belgian beer glass - see my other listing

21h

Free: Small beer glass (Llanishen CF14) Glass branded with the name of the Belgian beer Chimay. It was one of a pair but then I broke the other one. This is NOT a pint glass - it's a little taster glass, more like the size of a wine glass. Less than 5 inches high, probably around 12cm. Tin of Spaghetti Hoops in the second picture for scale! Collect from Llanishen.

21h

Free: Icing set (no bag) (Llanishen CF14) Icing set for cake decorating with six metal nozzles and a plastic connector. The original piping bag is torn at the end so the nozzles won't stay on, so I'm going to bin it and you'll need to have your own bag to use this one. Collect from Llanishen.

3d

Free: Three wine glasses (Llanishen CF14) Three wine glasses, originally made from recycled glass. Collect from Llanishen.

5d

Free: Two pink champagne glasses (Llanishen CF14) Two bright pink champagne glasses. They look like plastic but they're actually glass. Not perfect - the colour is very slightly chipped on one of them. Collect from Llanishen.

5d

Free: 2 Foals CDs (Llanishen CF14) Two CDs by the Oxford band Foals: * Holy Fire * Total Life Forever Both in used but playable condition. Collect from Llanishen, or I'll post them to you if you'll cover postage costs.

6d

Free: Duvet cover and pillowcases (Llanishen CF14) Withdrawn Kingsize duvet cover and two matching pillowcases. Both are 100% cotton with a linen border. Originally from Debenhams. I'm getting rid of them because the linen border really only looks good when you've ironed it and I've come to accept that ironing isn't my thing. Picture shows them in an un-ironed state! Duvet and pillows not included. Collect from Llanishen.

7d

Free: Mini ironing board (Llanishen CF14) Gifted Mini ironing board. Designed to be used on a table (like a dining table or whatever). You put a towel or sheet down to protect the table from scratches, then pop up the little legs of the ironing board and iron as normal. Roughly 1m x 38cm. Unfortunately I've burned the cover at some point and it's not removable, which I didn't know when I bought this. Brand is Vileda. Collect from Llanishen.

14d

Free: Cereal boxes from variety pack (Llanishen CF14) Gifted The kids won't eat the Choco Shapes from the cereal variety packs so we have 8 unopened boxes left over. Please note there are not normal Coco Pops - they are Choco Shapes, which is a different thing, so don't assume a kid who likes Coco Pops will necessarily like them! Each box is a single 30g serving. Expiry date July 2026. Collect from Llanishen. One person has suggested I just give them to the food bank. Unfortunately I can't do this because they are leftovers from a variety pack so they don't have the nutritional information printed on each box. I checked with a food bank last time I had something similar to give away and they said they can't take donations without ingredient info for safety reasons. If I put them in the collection box they would just get thrown away.

56d

Free: "Eco egg" for laundry (Llanishen CF14) Gifted The Eco Egg is a plastic egg that you fill with pellets and put in the washing machine. The idea is that the nice-smelling pellets get your clothes clean without the need for laundry detergent and fabric softener. Sadly I don't think it works very well - anyone out there who wants to give it a try? I put a new packet of pellets in it a week or so before giving up, so it should be good for at least 40 washes before you have to buy a new pack. Collect from Llanishen.

111d

Free: Bubble wrap (Llanishen CF14) Expired Assorted bits of bubble wrap. Thick pieces that originally cushioned a laptop for delivery plus a couple of smaller pieces. Collect from Llanishen.

213d

Free: Cable organisers (Llanishen CF14) Expired Grey plastic cable organisers. They cover your electrical cables. I'm not sure exactly what the point is but I suppose it makes it harder for pets to chew them? I can't remember why I acquired these in the first place! Collect from Llanishen.

316d

Free: Messenger bag (Llanishen CF14) Expired Black messenger bag, roughly 14 inches/60 cm across. The main body of the bag zips up and is covered by a flap that fastens with the plastic buckles shown in the picture. There are a couple of Velcro-fastened pockets at the front too. It would hold a smallish-to-medium laptop but wasn't designed specifically as a laptop bag so doesn't have padding or anything. Used but working condition. I've had it for many years so it's definitely not new! Collect from Llanishen.

316d

Free: Assorted Christmas decorations (Llanishen CF14) Gifted Hoping there's someone out there who'd like to decorate but hasn't got round to it yet! Decorations as follows: *Assorted gold baubles. They're in a box but they're not a complete set or matching. *Homemade paper chains, held together with a little wire loop so you can hang them from a picture hook or a nail in the wall or whatever * A few red baubles and a couple of parcel-shaped decorations * Two lengths of tinsel. One black and silver, one gold. Collect from Llanishen.

324d

Free: Wales-themed jigsaw (2 PIECES MISSING) (Birchgrove CF14) Expired Wales-themed jigsaw showing places, famous people etc. There's a bonus extra activity you can do at the end where you count the sheep. Bought this from a charity shop and was dismayed on completion to find there are TWO PIECES MISSING. I honestly think it should be a criminal offence to donate an incomplete jigsaw without fessing up...so I don't want to give it back to a charity shop, but perhaps there's someone out there who doesn't mind a couple of missing pieces? They're both at the bottom of the square if that helps. The kids still enjoyed doing the jigsaw! Collect from Llanishen.

343d

Free: 2-socket gang plug with v long lead (Birchgrove CF14) Gifted 2-socket gang plug, old but in working condition. (I've checked both sockets.) There's a handy light to show when it's plugged in and switched on. The lead is really long - hard to measure but I've tried and I think it's about six metres. Collect from Llanishen.

1y

Free: Four cushions for garden bench (bench not included) (Birchgrove CF14) Gifted Four cushions designed to fit my plastic rattan garden bench. The bench itself is now broken and off to the tip shortly, but I thought I would check to see if anyone wants the cushions for their own garden furniture? Black polyester, sponge clean only. They've got faded in the sun on one side so they now look purple (which I actually really like). You can turn them over to the black side but then the labels are showing. Pics show what I mean. The bench itself is about 126cm wide if that helps to give you an idea of size. Collect from Llanishen.

1y

Free: 3 whisky-themed publications (Llanishen CF14) Expired Three publications which might be interesting to the whisky lover. Book: 101 World Whiskies to Try Before You Die Book: Jim Murray's Whisky Bible 2013 Map: the Collins Whisky Map of Scotland All in quite good condition. Collect from Llanishen.

Free: Heated mat (Birchgrove CF14) Expired Electric mat that heats up, for putting underneath a rug in winter. It currently has a European-style 2-pin plug, but my dad says he'll put a normal UK plug on it if that's a dealbreaker for a potential collector. Very low electricity usage so a cheap way to warm your home (about a 2p an hour at current rates). The heat you get from it is very mild but still noticeably warmer than a tiled floor. Size: a metre square. Please not: this is NOT for putting on top of carpet, only stone or tiled floors. Do not use with a rug that has a rubber backing either. Brief instructions and safety info come with it - please do take half a minute to read before you use it. Collect from Heath/Birchgrove. I do realise this isn't exactly the right weather to be Freegling this...!

Free: 11 glass ramekins (Llanishen CF14) Gifted 11 glass ramekins of the kind that you get free with Gu desserts. Gu describe them as "iconic" and there is a long list of possible uses for them on the Gu website. Also you can buy lids that fit them exactly, made by a different company. Probably can't share commercial links on here but I'll give you the details if you're interested. It's probably a long shot trying to give them away because most people already have a zillion, but worth a try before they go in the glass recycling. It's just possible someone wants them for crafting or as candle holders or something!

1y

Free: Storage box (Llanishen CF14) Gifted Blue storage box on wheels, I think originally from IKEA but I can't remember. From the ground it's 2ft/60.5cm tall. It's roughly 1ft/31cm both wide and deep. Has previously been used for keeping a garden shed tidy and as a makeshift bedside table. Used but clean condition - I moved it outside for the photos but it's normally kept indoors. Collect from Llanishen.

1y

Free: Wrist support (Llanishen CF14) Gifted "Vulkan" brand wrist brace/wrist support. Lightly used. Size medium. Collect from Llanishen.

1y

Free: Curtain rings (Llanishen CF14) Expired Two lots of wooden curtain rings. 22 white, 14 wood/natural. Collect from Llanishen.

1y

Free: Microwave (Llanishen CF14) Gifted Big, old but working Panasonic microwave. There is a cosmetic fault with the door - the section of edging that frames the window is not securely attached and keeps falling off. (Second picture shows where the fault is.) It doesn't affect the working of the microwave and I think if you glue it back on it will be fine. Width 51cm/20 inches, height 28cm/11 inches, depth 33cm/13 inches. Comes with all the usual bits like the rotating glass plate inside and also metal trays. I've mislaid the instruction manual but I know I haven't thrown it out, so happy to post it on to whoever takes this when I find it (in the next few weeks, hopefully..) Collect from Llanishen.

1y

Free: Curtain hooks (Llanishen CF14) Gifted 2 unopened packets of curtain hooks (25 each, so 50 total) plus spares not in packet if you want them. Collect from Llanishen.

1y

Free: Partly working CDs (Llanishen CF14) Expired I have a bunch of CDs where my CD player will only play a few of the songs. No idea if the fault is my CD player or if I really do have that many damaged CDs. This is a long shot but does ANYONE have the slightest use for them? Happy to share details of what albums etc and which songs are playable if there's any interest.

1y

Free: Curtain hooks (Llanishen CF14) Expired Two packs of plastic curtain hooks, bought years ago but never used because I moved house. Collect from Llanishen.
