Request: Furniture for garden room (City Centre NR1) I've just had a small garden room/home office built at the back of my house. It measures about 2m 40cm x 2m. I'm looking for a couple of small "garden-room-y" sort of chairs (if they're foldable so much the better, and a rug for the floor (2m x 1.5m if rectangular/oval; 1.5m diameter if round). The walls are painted a pale green - not quite peppermint, but close - so things that'll go with that. (Seems wrong to set conditions on here!) Anyway, thanks.

Request: Coffee table (City Centre NR1) I’m after a coffee table. Say, a metre long, half a metre wide, half a metre tall… wooden (painted or otherwise)… That’s it, really. Anyone got one to spare🙂?

Free: Blue storage box (City Centre NR1) Gifted Storage box. Blue, needs a clean, no lid, about 50 cms long, 40 wide, 25 deep. Suitable for frequent use (eg toys in and out), probably less so for longer term storage. Unless you have a lid that fits!

Free: Natural stone tiles (plus edgy bits) (City Centre NR1) Gifted One full box of natural stone tiles (I believe they’re also called ‘travertine’) plus off cuts. Not much else to add…

Request: Water-butt (City Centre NR1) Expired I'm after a slimline water-butt. Freegle has asked me to state why... er: to collect rainwater? Also a long overflow pipe would be good too. Not much else to add! Gratefully received, if anyone out there has one that's surplus to requirements.

Request: Expanding hose (City Centre NR1) Expired Has anyone out there got an expanding hose 8m-10m? I ordered one which arrived yesterday but it's too short (5m). My fault, I ordered wrong; but I can't face trying to return it and dealing with Temu. If anyone out there's got one I'd love to have it please!

Free: Sledge (City Centre NR1) Gifted One old-fashioned sledge - much loved when my children were little, but now surplus to requirements. In the unlikely event that we ever get any snow, ever again, your kids will thank you! Come and get it...

Free: Engineered wood flooring (City Centre NR1) Gifted I have five 2m-plus lengths of engineered wood, as seen. Oak finish. Four are full width - 130mm (plus tongue). One has been cut down to 65mm. Free to whoever can use them.

Free: Diluted white emulsion paint (City Centre NR1) Gifted I have about a third or half of a 10L container of diluted white emulsion paint. I used it as a 'mist-coat' on a newly-plastered room - worked a treat. There's enough left to do a decent-sized wall, or perhaps a small room. I got it from a fellow freegler, and would like to pass it on. Any takers?

Request: Groundsheet (+ cheap white emulsion) (City Centre NR1) Received Hi. I have a decorating project coming up, and I need an old groundsheet - or groundsheets - to protect the floor. Doesn't matter how moth-eaten or dusty! Plus, any white emulsion paint; quality doesn't matter, it's going to be diluted anyway and applied as a mist coat. Thanks.

Free: Shed stuff (City Centre NR1) Expired I'm having my shed replaced with something nicer, so I've got stuff to give away. It's all a bit grubby (five years in a leaky outhouse will do that) but it should scrub up okay. In no particular order: A gazebo, two sledges, a set of stackable camping saucepans, two airbeds (and please take the box they're in too), a table-top table-tennis set (base boards plus bats, net and balls) and two inflatables (one is an exercise ball, the other - I think - is a giant football). Photos are attached. All items are available for collection from Wednesday 28th May, and I will consider delivery so long as we live in closeish proximity.

Free: Paint (City Centre NR1) Gifted I have two 10L tins of magnolia emulsion going begging. Going by weight, one is two-thirds full, the other maybe a third. Also a 2.5L tin of smooth black masonry paint - not much left, perhaps a quarter, but could be useful for touching up? Anyway, needs to go.
