Toilet seat. (Wigmore HR6)
I've only had this seat a couple of months. It's a heavy, expensive seat, but, my days of being able to properly tighten the bolts underneath are long gone. As you can see in the photo's the wing nut from underneath is mangled from where I tried to use mole grips on it to tighten the nut. It didn't work and the seat kept slipping, eventually ripping the gasket on one side. The seat and all the bits have been thoroughly bleached. The toilet seat is unmarked and undamaged in any way.

Toilet seat, nearly new. (Wigmore HR6)
White toilet seat, heavy, expensive when new only a couple of months ago. I just couldn't tighten this enough to stop it sliding (age and arthritis have made some DIY jobs a lot harder). The nuts to tighten are torn up because I tried to use mole grips on them, and the gaskets have ripped on one side each. You can get new sets of gaskets and nut and bolt sets from amazon, ebay, and maybe B&Q. Has been thoroughly bleached.

Tea towels, 6 of, nearly new. Supposed to be microfiber, but I don't like them.

Pan, old aluminium 4 pint - 2.5 litre (Wigmore HR6)
As it says, an old, thick, solid aluminium pan. It holds, to the brim, 4 pints or 2.5 litres. I have an induction hob, which this doesn't work on. I have owned this for possibly 40 years and my mother for 10 or twenty years before that. It's a testament to how solidly things were made way back then.

Scrap wood (Wigmore HR6)
This wood has rotted because it was a garden retaining wall. As you can see I'm dismantling it to rebuild a new wall. There will be more to come as I work further back. There are a lot of large screws in the timbers, which I don't have the time to remove, though it wouldn't take much to knock or drag them out.

Elliptical trainer. (Wigmore HR6)
Gifted
Received from a freegler, so handing onward. Working, though the strap thing that tightens to increase resistance is frayed. They sell for about £16 on Amazon, probably ly cheaper on Ali Express, Shein or Temu etc. This is heavy and will probably need a van to transport. The handles and seat can be removed for transport. Seat is adjustable in height, handlebars have two locations to lock into and can be positioned in various ways. Ithas wheels at the front for easy moving around.

Beaurer metabolic scales. (Wigmore HR6)
Gifted
These are a set of weight scales that also tell you how much fat, muscle, water and bone you have. I bought a second one, because I thought these were faulty (I couldn't believe that I had put on so much weight). Sadly, the new scales showed the same. So I'm giving away the old scales. They have brand new batteries too.

Laundry Pods (Wigmore HR6)
Gifted
About 20. But, they are from Shein and I didn't get on with them. I found that I had to use double or more to get a decent wash. As I have a 7kg machine that meant 6+ pods.

Curtain pole (Wigmore HR6)
Gifted
Another item from the auctions that won't work the way I want it to. This is a long brass effect curtain pole, where the end bends to the wall where it slots down into the corresponding bracket. But,the box had two left bends. No right hand bend. So if you have a blank wall on the right that it can butt up to, this will be ideal for you.

Metal shelving (Wigmore HR6)

I got this from the auctions, and realised that either there's some parts missing or I just can't get my head around it. I found what looks like it in the Wayfair online catalouge.

Beach popup tent Kayman (Wigmore HR6)
Gifted
I have a new, unused KAYMAN beach pop up beach tent, for anyone willing to fight it back into it's bag. I took it out to photograph for ebay, then fought with it for half an hour, looked up YouTube vids, looked at the enclosed diagrams and still didn't get it into it's bag. So if it's any use to you, it's available. It comes with pegs, instructions and it's carry bag. Oh, it's bright orange. Look it up on amazon to see what it is.

Toilet foot stand, adult size (Wigmore HR6)
Gifted
This sturdy foot stool fits around the base of a toilet, a bit like a toddlers step. It's meant to bring your feet and legs up, into a more natural position for doing your business. (gives you a squatting position whilst still sitting nice and stable on the toilet). It has been thoroughly cleaned with bleach, but has been stored in the shed so is grubby again.

Mixed bag of old towels, sheets and pillows for pet use (Wigmore HR6)
Gifted
This is a bag of the stuff pulled out of our airing cupboard during my very recent clear out. It has old sheets, towels, a piece of fleece blanket and an old pillow. As such it's all probably only useful for pet bedding. Collection from Wigmore between 2pm and 10pm most days.

Towelling Head Wrap (Wigmore HR6)
Gifted
I was given this year's ago and never used it. At the time I had a thick ponytail long enough to sit on, there was no way it would fit in the wrap. It has a button and buttonhole for twisting and securing on your head. Collection from Wigmore between 2pm and 10pm most days.

Comfy padding for office chair (Wigmore HR6)
Gifted
This padding is still nice and puffy, so lovely to use. I have adapted it a bit, with a wide band of elastic ribbing to the back, which goes over the backrest to hold it secure. There are also strings to tie it to the arm rests. It's machine washable, though I do recommend that you tumble dry it to retain it's fluffiness.

Weighted blankets 2 of (Wigmore HR6)
Gifted
Hi, I have two weighted blankets, very heavy and not something normally sold at this time of the year. But I'm having an airing cupboard clear out and these two weighted blankets were unearthed. They both need cleaning, which I can't do. Mainly because they can't be put in a washing machine, partly because of the weight is too much for most machines, but mostly because the washing machine action destroys the weighted bits. It needs a bath to gently soak and wash them. As I don't have a bath, I can't get them clean. Collection from Wigmore after 2pm until 10pm most days.

4 sets of single duvet covers all different (Wigmore HR6)
Gifted
Clearing out my airing cupboard and now have some items to give away. 4 single duvet covers with a pillowcase, some have a single sheet too, though I'm not sure which ones have them. They have been in storage a long time and need a wash to get that musty cupboard smell out of them. Pale purple and lilac stripes. Blue and black on white circles and stripes. Pale blue and white with buttons Reversible woodland set with hares and hedgehogs. Other items in different listings. Collection from Wigmore after 2pm until 10pm
