Child safety gate extra tall (SE21)
Gifted
Safetots Eco Screw Fit Safety Gate Extra Tall in white. Model ST-ESFSGETW 100cm installed height and fits 70-80cm gaps which have strong vertical mounting locations on each side. I've kept all the mounting hardware, mounting templates (to align the brackets) and the instructions. This type of gate has four attachment points to the walls and the release mechanism requires pushing in a plastic tab and lifting the gate a little to release it from the upper and lower catches. You lift it into the catches to lock it shut again. One advantage of this is the gate doesn't press outwards on the mounting locations to secure itself, so it doesn't depend on the rigidity of the wall or banister on either side to be held in place. The mounting brackets need to be screwed into the wall/banister/door frame on either side. I have retained the screws I used for a wooden door frame but if you are mounting on a wall you may need different screws/fixings. Be aware that if mounted in a doorway you may not be able to shut the door entirely once the gate is installed, depending on how the doorframe is designed.

Brewing kit (SE21)
Gifted
Excess kit for home-brewing. This isn't a starter set, you would need to buy some additional things if you're starting out. Includes: Two 5 gallon plastic buckets (note: in addition to holes for included taps, there are holes for included temperature probe tubes, so these won't seal without the tubes inserted). They have lids with various holes and grommets in. Brewing kettle with valve and wire filter. Could be used as mash tun, though it's not insulated. With lid. Large non stick aluminium pot with lid. Wort chilling coils x 2 (one has hozelock style connectors). Basic, not counterflow.

Gifted
Vtech sound-only baby monitor pair with US transformers (not usable on UK voltage, even with an adapter). Very strong signal compared to other brands.

Four large pallets (SE21)
Gifted
Four pallets. Red painted, marked as heat treated (not chemical). Large, heavy and solid pallets. Some splitting in places where a forklift was used to lift. I was going to tie them together to make a compost bin but it was deemed not to look good enough for a garden corner. Not suitable for building furniture without quite a bit of filing and sanding, but good for structural support. You could also recover some good planks from these if you break them down. You will want a van or roof rack to move these; too big for a car or cargo bike.
