Free: Christmas crib (Halton LS15) Gifted This Christmas crib is lovely, but we have nowhere to display it over this Advent and Christmas season (we already have a crib on display.) It would be lovely for you to display it and love it as much as we have done in the last few years.

Free: A Box of Christmas decorations (Halton LS15) Gifted This year, we have a tree that doesn't need decorations so this box is no longer needed. If you can use them, I'd be vrey pleased!

Free: 2 model aircraft for adult collectors (Halton LS15) Gifted Two die cast model aircraft. Unsuitable for children under 14. One is a Heinkel. The Oxford Aviation one is a De Havilland Mosquito, 1:72. Both new – never been out of the boxes. Both have stands. The Oxford box has a slight tear on the front. We're trying to downsize a bit!

Free: Ribbon etc (Halton LS15) Gifted I’ve been clearing out my sewing box . . . I’ve found lots of ribbons and other craft items which I no longer need. There are ribbons of various lengths and colours, a 36” zip, some crochet hooks, various beads and plastic eyes for knitting/sewing projects. There’s even a skein or two of elastic. Please see the picture for the whole lot. This collection is ideal for someone who enjoys knitting and sewing!

Free: Yarn Swift to hold a hank of yarn for winding into a ball (Halton LS15) Gifted A Yarn Swift, or as I refer to it - a Wool Winder!!! It's for holding a hank of yarn while you wind it into a ball for knitting/crochet. The frame is metal, the struts which hold the yarn seem to be plastic (or perhaps nylon). They are nice and pliant for holding the yarn. It works like an umbrella so can be adjusted to the diameter of your hank. It has a metal foot to clamp onto a table or work surface to keep it stable while you wind. It works well but I’ve recently been gifted a new on so this is now surplus.

Free: Oval Infuser Tea Pot with Drip Tray (Halton LS15) Gifted This is a virtually new tea pot. I've used it only once! It has a basket for loose leaf tea and a drip tray if you want to remove the tea leaves when the tea is strong enough. It can also be used with tea bags. It makes enough tea for two mugs full. I love the design and colour - at least I loved the design until I tried to use it - it's clearly been designed by someone right-handed. I found the lip to remove the basket is on the wrong side for me to use comfortably and safely the left-handed way. I should have looked at it more carefully when I bought it!!! My fault for not checking but hopefully if you are right-handed this should be an ideal addition for making tea.
