Free: Small chest of draws (Finsbury Park N4) Lovely solid wee set of drawers - good as a lamp stand or bedside table perhaps. 30” high. Made of solid wood, no mdf or some such, so please note tis quite heavy for its size.

Free: Big plastic box (Finsbury Park N4) Gifted A big plastic box for storage or, if you’re bold, crossing the Atlantic in. It’s scruffy but still does the job - and trash nothing as they say, so here it is you lucky lucky people.

Free: Antique Vintage Three Way Mirror (Finsbury Park N4) Gifted As much as I need funds I can’t have this hanging around on eBay any longer, sadly needs to go. Therefore… lucky you! Because here you have a real find in the form of a marvellous three way dressing table mirror. It requires a clean up and is a wee bit wonky but both those matters can be resolved with some simple tlc. No idea as to its age but it’s old, beautifully so - it told me this, but you can just tell, plus it’s extremely heavy for its size. Who is the fairest of them all? You are! Central mirror: Height 23”/58cm Width 18”/46cm Side mirrors: Height 20”/51cm Width 7.5”/19cm

Free: Mid Century floor lamp (Finsbury Park N4) Gifted Teak and brass mid century floor lamp - very slightly bent but sure it can be unbent. Please note, it’s not working so needs rewiring which isn’t that expensive I believe. If this is your style tis a great find.

Free: Window shutters (Finsbury Park N4) Gifted Good condition I’d say - no brackets for attaching but I should think these would be quite easy to source from Homebase and other reputable diy stores. Length 45”/114cm Height 39”/98cm

Free: Very strong and sturdy box/stool (Finsbury Park N4) Gifted I think these are used by anglers when fishing to put all their tackle in whilst also providing somewhere for them to sit whilst they wait and wait for something to take a bite from the line, but I don’t really know so why I’ve written this waffle is anybody’s guess. I’ve temporarily mislaid my measuring tape so the mug on the top is just there for scale and proportion purposes and is not included; I’d never give away anything featuring Yoda. A speedy collection would be greatly appreciated as I’m attempting to shrink the size of my abundant clutter. Thank you.

Free: Printer #2 (Finsbury Park N4) Gifted HP Photosmart Printer I picked up some time ago but have never got around to even plugging it in. I can’t comment on its performance therefore, but I was told by who I got it from it works fine. Hey, it’s free, so might as well give it a go if you’re in need.

Free: A little refrigerator (Finsbury Park N4) Gifted Small white table top fridge. Was a life saver when our main fridge freezer gave up the ghost, but is now surplus to requirements. Could do with a bit of a spruce. Height: 20” Width: 17” Depth: 29”

Free: Side Table (Finsbury Park N4) Gifted Got this a few weeks ago from eBay but I don’t like it really - I’m sure someone else might. No, that’s not gold threaded marble - it’s Perspex or some such, so quite light to carry and move around. Collection asap!

Free: Large curtain pole (Finsbury Park N4) Gifted It may look like King Arthur’s lance but to the best of my knowledge it’s sadly not. This is much bigger (and heavier) than your usual curtain pole. It was probably expensive knowing my sister who was its owner. She passed it on to me but I don’t see why as I don’t have double doors. Anyway, it’s just over 7ft - 86”/ 218 cms long, circumference is 6”/15cms. And it even comes with a lovely muslin curtain - also free! I don’t have the brackets for it I’m afraid. I think it would look good hanging from rope if you couldn’t find any the right size. Cheers.

Free: Curtain pole (Finsbury Park N4) Gifted This was given to me by my sister, why I don’t know as I have no use for it. No doubt was pricey as everything she gets is. Anyway, please note that it is much bigger/thicker and thus heavier than usual curtain poles. It’s long enough to go across double patio doors. I’m sorry I haven’t entered the measurements but at present I can’t find my tape measure - I suspect the cat has hidden it. However if you express interest I’ll hopefully have found it by then.

Free: Vintage sewing machine (Finsbury Park N4) Gifted As the title states - a person vintage sewing machine. A friend left it at my place when she moved overseas and according to her they’re quite sort after and it still works, but I know nothing about them so cannot confirm this. But hey, it’s free so worth a shot hey?

Free: Magazine rack/coffee table (Finsbury Park N4) Gifted Fantastic retro/vintage metamorphic magazine rack that simply converts to a small coffee table. A reluctant giveaway but I’m a collector of cluttercore and some stuff just has to go so... Please note the inquisitive pussy Symone is not included.

Free: Antique Clock (Finsbury Park N4) Gifted Lovely wall clock by Enfield. Sadly it is NOT RUNNING. It may simply mean it’s seized up and needs clock oil, as the previous owner said it was working well not so long ago - but then perhaps they meant back some thirty years, or when his auntie purchased it back in the 1920s, I don’t know. I’ve tried reselling it to at least recoup some of my losses but alas no takers, so as I cry I put it up on here - for you. I’ve not polished it up for fear of damaging the veneer (tiny pieces missing off corners). They pendulum and key are included. Please note at 30ins/76cms height it’s pretty heavy. You can’t put it in your pocket or wear it around your neck - I suggest a car, or perhaps a helicopter except there’s nowhere nearby to land so in you’d need a hoist. Speedy collection would be hugely appreciated. Thanks.

Free: Picture frame (Finsbury Park N4) Gifted Large picture frame in excellent condition - for 9 x 6” by 4” photos.

Free: TV (Finsbury Park N4) Gifted Sony Bravia TV. 32” I got this from here quite some time ago for our bedroom where it has sat completely unused ever since, and I’ve now grown tired of gazing into a black void so here it is again. P.S. it’s quite heavy I’d say and you’d need to collect it from the first floor as I have a heart condition. Thanks.

Free: Printer (Finsbury Park N4) Gifted Ricoh SP213SFNw Printer. Wifi compatible with a high volume output it’s probably best for a business or charity as only prints b&w. I’ve never actually used it be am told it works fine.

Free: PLAYMOBIL Disco (Finsbury Park N4) Gifted No DJ alas (available on eBay I believe) but still a fab little discotheque for Playmobil figures. Plays music and has flashing lights.
