Cooker extraction hood (Hermitage RG18)
Nothing wrong with it, it's just that I decided I wanted a different type. Bosch DLN53AA50 or DLN53AA70 - not sure which, the instruction manual covers both, and don't know the difference. it fits into a standard 60cm width wall unit (not the standard ones, but shorter ones designed to fit over cookers).

Electric Lawn Scarifier (Chieveley RG20)
Gifted
Really efficient when it works. But it was rather gummed up when I tried starting it this year and now sounds like the motor's turning but the hooks aren't= broken belt? But I can't see how to get in and look at it even if I wanted to. But if you're into fixing such things... Qualcast I think. Advertised previously on Newbury with no success.

Green Wellies Size 2 (Hermitage RG18)
Hardly worn- didn't realise until I had worn once that they'd sent the wrong size and I can barely get them on. Full length but not long

small air fryer (Hermitage RG18)
Tower T17087, black (2 litres). Had it over a year, so not in perfect condition (lost the little plastic bits that fit onto the "grill" plate to stop it scratching) but the only reason I'm getting rid of it is that I've got a bigger one- they really are useful. It will happily do a portion of chips, but isn't big enough to cook the fish at the same time! A chicken leg would fit, as long as it's not a big one. Comes with instruction manual, though pages are a little crinkled (evidently got a little damp). Collection early evening- no rush. Could drop off for a Hermitage/ Chieveley resident.

Quality Street Tubs (Chieveley RG20)
Withdrawn
They make great feed dishes for my ducks. Not that I don't like other chocolates, but the shape helps them stay in corners. Not expecting to receive full ones, but please note that it's not worth travelling far to pick up.

A selection of ones that have died in use. Likely repairable and could then sell on ebay. I want these to go as a job lot to get them out of the way.

White, I forget how many wire strands. 100m cut into two lengths slightly more than 25m and two lightly less. Comes with the four 3ft posts that it's currently wrapped around. Good condition- not that old. Also other, older lengths in orange.

Wire mesh suitable for aviaries/ rabbit protection (Chieveley RG20)
Expired
I forget what gauge, but square mesh, galvanised ~1cmx2cm holes. Two ~3m by 1m lengths. The main problem however is that ~1/4 the width was placed on grass that has grown up through it so lots of adherent grass and soil needs knocking off. Located at Chieveley.

Freeview recorders (Hermitage RG18)
Expired
Two Humax PVR 9300Ts that have minor faults, plus a newer model that doesn't work at all. All with remote controls and power cables but not sure I can find instructions. Could be sold on ebay, I just can't be bothered. Not sure why this got marked as taken- I was exchanging messages with someone but he went quiet.

Bose Sound System (Hermitage RG18)

Spares or repair. Old one (no longer supported by manufacturer) with radio, single and multiple (5CD) players. The single CD never worked, and the 5CD player has now failed. It still had my CDs in it, so I'd like them back! Dirty cream
