Free: Bosch Exxcel Dishwasher for spares or repair (Sharmans Cross B91) Bosch Exxcel model SMS65E02UK/01 full size freestanding white dishwasher - faulty. 15 years old but household is 2 adults so possibly used less than for a family. Wasn't filling with any water; now fills but water only trickling out of rotor arms - not enough to move them. I've checked filters. Might be heat/circulation pump - available form espares at £145 - other retailers stock what looks similar significantly cheaper but won't confirm it fits this model. TRANSPORT REQUIREMENTS: heavy - weight possibly > 50kg. Step free access so could be moved on a trolley (we have a ramp to our front door). Should be kept upright because although I've drained the appliance there may be residual water.

Free: Rodent Cage (Sharmans Cross B91) Gifted The cage came with 2 rats that needed rehoming after their owner died suddenly. I'm not advising how suitable an environment it was for 2 rats. If necessary please seek advice such as (I've no connection with th RSPCA). External dimensions approximately L 56 x W 30 x H 47 cms. The ladder to the mid-level platform was already missing when we acquired the cage but the rats seemd to be OK climbing the cage wall. Comes with a wheel (not sure how smoothly it runs), house, small bowl, water bottle which fixes to the side of the cage, excursion ball (possibly more suitable for a hamster and I'm not sure we ever tried it) and a small quantity of bedding.

Free: Old Car Steering Wheel Lock - Pre Airbag (Sharmans Cross B91) Expired 2 x Car Steering Wheel Lock. Not suitable for steering wheels with an airbag because of the central dome so probably only for old cars. They are the adjustable length metal bar type which goes across the top of the steering wheel and has hooks which go under the wheel rim. Working but cosmetic damage including signs of use, discolouration and looks a little dirty.

Free: THOMSON RCT 110S A1 Remote Control (Sharmans Cross B91) Expired THOMSON STB/TV/DVD RCT 110S A1 Remote Control. Probably working but I'm unable to test it. Requires 2 x AA batteries. NOTE: the photos are from the web, not the actual control. The actual one is the same model although there's slight fading of the text in a couple of places due to use.

Free: Fluval Aquarium Filters (Sharmans Cross B91) Gifted These are older models which have been used. I've tested the impellor units briefly and they work but I can't guarantee performance. The aquarium capacity for which these are suitable are guidelines only and would depend on how the aquarium is stocked and possibly other factors. In the photos the more rounded units are the 'plus' models and the 'square' are the pre-plus models. I have an electronic copy of instructions for the plus models but not for the pre-plus models. Fluval 1 Mod1 (approx. max. capacity 30 litres) Fluval 2 (info label has code L-02002; approx. max. capacity 60 litres) Fluval 2 plus filter section only (impellor unit scrapped due to damaged cable; approx. max. capacity 60 litres) Fluval 3 filter section only (impellor unit scrapped due to damaged cable - info label had code L-02002; approx. max. capacity 120 litres) Fluval 3 plus (info label has code L-35033 07/08; approx. max. capacity 120 litres)

Free: Toshiba CT-9900 Remote Control (Sharmans Cross B91) Gifted I think this is for a CRT TV which died > 10 years ago. Probably works but I can't test it. Requires 2 x AA batteries. The bottom section has a sliding cover which opens to reveal more controls which may be for a video recorder (see photos).

Request: Emulsion paint matt white - small quantity (Sharmans Cross B91) Expired I need to paint approx 0.25 sq meters (< 3 sq feet) of ceiling with emulsion paint matt white. Before I buy several litres, does anyone have a small amount unwanted? Probably only requires 200-300 ml, allowing for 2 coats. Doesn't matter if it's white or brilliant white but please not a shade of white.

Free: Lamp Shades from table lamps (Sharmans Cross B91) Expired Note! Only the shades and electrical fittings are available. (The lamp bases have been repurposed already and are shown only to give an idea of what the shades are like.) Shade sizes approx 32 cm & 38 cm square. The larger shade fabric is damaged (see r.h. side of photo of shades only). The shade frames do not fit a standard bulb holder. The electrical fittings are all metal and not earthed so probably don't meet safety requirements. They take a full size screw fitting and spiral CFL bulbs are available.

Free: TV Aerial for roof or loft (Sharmans Cross B91) Gifted TV Aerials for roof or loft. 2 will probably work with Freeview if you have at least reasonable signal strength but they have been in store for several years so I can't guarantee. 1 is smaller and may not work well with digital (Freeview) signal - my guess is a [very] good signal strength would be advisable.

Free: Philips GQ3040 Grooming kit accessories (Sharmans Cross B91) Gifted Philips GQ3040 Grooming kit complete apart from the cleaning brush but no longer charges so may be good for accessories only. shows a very similar model - probably a newer version.

Free: Empty Wild Bird Suet Ball Plastic Tubs (Sharmans Cross B91) Expired Empty Gardman Supreme Suet Balls plastic tubs. Height approx 9"/225mm, Diameter approx 10½"/270mm. Labels have been removed. About half have been washed, the remainder are best cleaned. They're tapered so when empty can be stacked one inside another, similar to take-away drinks cups. From my experience prolonged storing outside (several months?) is inadvisable because the plastic becomes brittle.
