A number of sheets of old window glass some in frames some loose. Largest sheet (outer one in pic) is 42" x 42" the rest are smaller. The largest piece is a double glazed unit and one sheet has a crack across the other is intact. These may be suitable for cold frames in an allotment or garden... They have been stored here for more than 10 years.

Sony Clock Radio (Oadby Lodge Farm LE2)
Gifted
Mains powered Sony Dream Machine Alarm Clock Radio in working order. Because it has been near the kitchen window the once clear plastic front is somewhat discoloured. It has preset tuning on the radio and an alarm on the clock. Single button on side to switch between Summer and Winter time changes. Volume control on the side. The arial is a 2 foot long thin cable out the back.

MyKit System 7 Electronics Kit (Oadby Lodge Farm LE2)
Gifted
This electronics experiment kit appears to have had little if any use and some of the separate components in the box appear to never have been used. These kits were made in Japan in the 1970's or 80's and the box claims that 150 experiments are possible. Sadly the 94 page instruction manual is not present but whether you can track one down on the internet I cannot say. It may be that this is just a source of components for an electronics enthusiast.

5 Litre can Waxoyl and accessories (Oadby Lodge Farm LE2)
Gifted
I used waxoyl on all my cars in the 1970's and 80's. This little lot must date from around that time. The Waxoyl can is pretty well full. It is still being marketed with the same imaging but no longer by Finnegans who I assume were taken over by another company.

Pair of unused very basic cycle locks (Oadby Lodge Farm LE2)
Gifted
These locks are still in their original unopened packaging with price labels showing they cost .68p each which tells how long I have had them! They each have two keys. I don't think I would trust my bike today to such a basic lock but someone may have an alternative use for these "Ningbo Cycle Locks" from China?

Misc collection of old child and adult seatbelts & fittings (Oadby Lodge Farm LE2)
Expired
These 1970's child and adult seatbelts will probably not meet todays safety specs but if anyone has a use for this old seat belt collection, (handles on home made shopping bags?) at least it will keep it out of landfill.

Old plastic wheels 4" & 5.5" dia (Oadby Lodge Farm LE2)
Gifted
In a workshop clear-out I found these eight old plastic and rubber wheels and cannot recall what they came off. Four are 4" diameter and the others set are 5.5" diameter. They are dusty and dirty but I expect could be cleaned up for some project or other. If no takers then I guess landfill beckons.

Four lengths of heavy duty chain (Oadby Lodge Farm LE2)
Gifted
The longest length is just under 8' long the second is a few inches shorter. The third longest at under 7' is a heavier duty chain. The short one has a hook at one end and large loop at the other and around 16" long. Together they are quite heavy so there may be some scrap metal value for someone.

Folding snow shovel (Oadby Lodge Farm LE2)
Gifted
Who knows it may snow again! This snow shovel lived in my car boot in Yorkshire winters in the 1970's and 80's but here in Leicestershire it hasn't been needed by me for the last 20 years but if someone can make use of it even to take on holiday to the seaside that's better than the tip!!
