Free: Cambridge Audio A1 amplifier - Needs attention / project! (Camden BA1) Cambridge Audio A1 budget Hifi amplifier Rescued from a skip, one channel works ok, the other is quiet and noisy. It is version 3.0 and my hunch is an hour with a screwdriver and a soldering iron to replace the main amplifier chip (probably LM 4 7 6 6, about 10 pounds) would give a working amplifier, but I haven't got the kit to fully confirm this, or a real use for it if I fixed it and its been sitting around too long! Location is London Road / Walcot Random offer policy : I may take a couple days to consider replies. Preference will generally be given to local takers who send coherent responses! Thanks, Andrew

Free: Coffee machine - filter type (Camden BA1) Rowenta coffee machine, quite old (25+ years, made in W. Germany, has been in storage most of that time) I've run water through it and it seems to work fine, except the jug with is not the original, and does not work the valve in the bottom of the filter funnel. This means you have two (maybe more?) options - remove this valve, would need a small hacksaw or something, and live with the fact that the filter will drip when the jug is not in place, or source a better jug. Location is London Road / Walcot Please include the phrase "non-original" in your reply to indicate you have read this, otherwise your reply might not get read either. Collection time to be agreed, early evenings 6-7 pm generally best for me. Thanks! Andrew

Free: Walnut and lime trees (Bath & North East Somerset) Expired Four walnut and two lime trees. Bare rooted, left over from some planting a few years back, I planted these temporarily and neglected them! Lifted today, some root damage but should be ok if planted within a week and kept watered in dry weather. Trees are 4 - 7' tall, plus roots, I had them in a small car, but need to be gentle and would be cosy with passengers or for a longer journey. These have the potential to grow to 20+ m high so not suitable for a small garden, though lime are amenable to pollarding. Preference to community or private use (ie: you are not selling them on) Location is london road / walcot Collection ideally an evening this week. Thanks, Andrew
