Request: Smartphone (even an older model) to help with daily tasks (Cowley OX4) I’m looking for a working smartphone as I am still using a very basic, old-style mobile phone and it’s becoming increasingly difficult to manage daily life without one. Between working long hours to cover high rental costs and managing some health-related sight issues, having access to apps for transport, , health matters and basic navigation would be a huge help. I know this is a big ask, but if anyone has upgraded recently and has their old phone sitting in a drawer, I would be very grateful to give it a second life. It doesn’t need to be fancy – just a standard, functioning smartphone would be amazing.Thank you for reading.

Request: Small amount of white/cream paint for quick touch-ups (Cowley OX4) Withdrawn I’m looking for a small amount of white or cream paint to cover some chips on the doors and skirting boards in my rented house. The doors are quite old, so any type of paint or shade (white, off-white, or cream) will do. I just want to do a very quick "spot fix" to make them look a bit neater without a full renovation. Thank you for reading!
