Free: Perennial pink thistles / Cirsium rivulare 'Atropurpureum' (Clerwood EH12) Gifted I have 4 spare clumps of Cirsium perennial plants that need a good home. UPDATE - all 4 plants now promised. I often refer to these as “pink thistles”, full name is Cirsium rivulare 'Atropurpureum'. Some garden websites will tell you this is a ”short-lived” perennial, but I’ve been growing mine in my clay soil for years, and they always come back and have bulked up and been divided into lots more plants, so they seem to be made of tougher stuff than they are given credit for! Usually they don’t flower until around June/July, but of course everything is early this year, so they’re coming into flower now. The leaves will go a bit tatty after flowering, but deadhead after flowering and trim off the tatty bits of leaves, and you’ll get new growth and more flowers later in the summer. Note for parents/pet owners - although these are “thistles”, the leaves of the plants are far softer than those of our native purple thistles, and so although the leaves are a little bit spiny, they are softer prickles and don’t have super-sharp spikes like native thistles have. They do best in sun to get lots of flowers – a quick google will give you full growing requirements. The leaf clump will grow to around 50cm, with the flower spikes maybe around 60-100cm tall (shorter on younger plants). When replying, please advise how many plants you’d like (max 4 available). Collection from Drumbrae/Corstorphine (EH12). Thanks for looking.

Free: Brodit car mobile phone holder - Mount for Seat Ibiza (Clerwood EH12) Gifted This is a car-specific mobile phone holder bracket - for a Seat Ibiza. Brodit 854271 ProClip central mount – for Seat Ibiza 2009-17. Gap opener tool included. Previously used, so double-sided sticky tape may need replaced. IMPORTANT – The Brodit phone holder system requires 2 parts – this is the car-specific mount for the Seat Ibiza 2009-17 ONLY. It needs a suitable Brodit phone holder to be fitted to this – easily sourced online. The last photo shown is of the bracket with the additional of the phone holder part (and phone!) to give you an idea of what it looks like once assembled - the phone holder part is NOT available and will need to be purchased/sourced elsewhere. ----------------------------------------------------------------- See Brodit website for fitting details. I used this in my previous Ibiza – it provides a great position on the central console for easy viewing, particularly if using your phone for sat nav. You’ll need to buy one of Brodit’s phone holders to fit on to the ProClip mount – there are adjustable versions which expand to hold a range of phone sizes, so no need to remove skins before slotting into the holder. The Brodit versions costs around £30 to buy, but there are also plenty of Brodit-compatible brands on the market too for around £18-£25. Collection from EH12 (Corstorphine / Drumbrae area). Thanks.

Free: Pair of metal & mango wood side tables (Clerwood EH12) Gifted 2 nested tables that can sit together. Black metal frames, light coloured solid mango wood tops, which have variable cream-yellow tones in the timber – see photos. As the tops are natural wood (i.e. not mdf etc), there are some very small nicks / slight roughness in the cut-ends of the wood – these have been there since new and are just a feature of the tops being made from natural timber. Size of smaller table: 46cm wide x 37cm deep x 47cm high Size of larger table: 54cm wide x 40cm deep x 52cm high Collection from Drumbrae/Corstorphine area (EH12). Thanks for looking.

Free: Pair of large curtains (Clerwood EH12) Gifted Can anyone make use of these curtains? Large floor length curtains in a satin “champagne” coloured fabric with a shadow wave pattern running down the length. They are lined, but the lining, particularly at the bottom, has gone a bit discoloured. There is no staining or bleaching as far as I can see on the front fabric (they were used in a north facing room, so no sun damage). The size of each individual curtain is a drop of 88 inches (224cm) and a width of 90 inches (229cm). So together, if you want to still use as curtains, they should fill a pole/track length of 90 to 112 inches (228-284cm), according to Dunelm! Collection from Drumbrae/Corstorphine (EH12). Thanks for looking.

Free: Portable Laptop Stand / Bed Table Stand (Clerwood EH12) Gifted 360 Degree Portable Laptop Stand Bed Table Notebook Stand With Mouse Board. I found this a great gadget for my laptop – it can be adjusted to almost any angle so you can find your perfect position for arranging your laptop, either sitting low at a table or converting a desk to a standing desk. Could also be used as a bed table. Each of the leg sections turn a full 360 degrees and “click” into their selected angle so they don’t move in use, and there are settings on each bracket so that once you find your preferred set-up, it can quickly be replicated next time you use it. Folds completely flat for storage. There’s also a separate mouse table that can be attached to the main stand (see photos). The main table top area is 48cm x 26cm, and the full width of the stand (including the folding legs) is 59cm. Collection from Drumbrae/Corstorphine, from FRIDAY 18th APRIL onwards.

It has a lipped front edge. Note as its metal, it does not roll-up! It’s a bit worn on the surface from use (the black is a bit grey in places), but still does the job brilliantly and stops the table being dented and wrecked by over-enthusiastic pens etc. Size is 72cm width across the front, and 51cm front to back at the deepest point in the middle. Collection from Drumbrae/Corstorphine (EH12). Thanks for looking.

Looks to be the same as the Floplast Mini range: downpipe is 50mm diameter, width across top of guttering is 76mm.

Collection only, from Corstorphine / Drumbrae area (EH12). Thanks for looking.
