Free: Pair of small tables (CB4, off Chesterton Road) Excellent condition, bamboo edging and legs. Height 27" (59 cm); top shelf 14" square (36 cm sq); lower shelf 12" square (30 cm sq). Were used as bedside tables but could be used elsewhere I think. Maybe a plant stand?

Free: Fridge/freezer (CB4, off Chesterton Road) White, clean, good condition. Height 57" ()145 cm); width 19.5" (50 cm) depth 21.5" (55 cm). I cannot find a brand name or manufacturer's label on it anywhere! However it is working, even the light in the top fridge compartment. Please say when you could come to collect, it needs to go soon! Thank you.

Free: Curtain fixings (CB4, off Chesterton Road) Expired A plastic box (with lid) of curtain hooks, gliders, tape, curtain wire hooks, and probably stuff I can't really name. Several different systems I believe. I haven't measured the curtain tape (three tier stuff) but the larger piece is a good size. Please email me if a measurement would help.

Free: Ethernet cables (CB4, off Chesterton Road) Expired Two unused ethernet cables. Bag around one set says "06962 10 M. STP Ethernet" (so I'm assuming 10 metres long, but I'm no expert on this stuff!). The black cable has printing along the cable which says (as far as I can make out...) "E258106 Cat.5e UTP 26AWGx4P PATCH CORD ISO/IEC 11801 & EN 50173 VERIFIED TIA\EIA 568B BROAD 210412". I would have added"LOL" to that! Need a cup of tea now.

Free: magnetic boxes (CB4, off Chesterton Road) Expired These are small magnetic boxes designed to clip onto a magnetic chalk board (or a fridge for example). The brand is KalaMitica (<kalamitica.com>). Often used for holding potted house plants, the second photo is a shot of one of mine (a bit bigger than these) that I am still using. These boxes are small ones: the cube ones are 5.5 cm deep, 6 cm square (so a little bit more than 2" in each direction); the larger ones are same depth, 14 cm long.

Free: Purple paint for exterior woodwork (CB4, off Chesterton Road) Expired A nearly full pot of purple paint (splodge on lid shows the paint itself). Johnstone's "Puturple" in Stormshield Flexible Satin. Recently bought, but the colour did not look right on my front door against grey wall paint. A full pot covers 15 to 18 sq meters, so would reckon a good 12 square meters worth in there.

Free: Rotring lead pencil plus refills (CB4, off Chesterton Road) Expired A 0.5 mm mechanical lead pencil, Rotring. Plus 90 refills from Staples.

Free: bin used as water butt (CB4, off Chesterton Road) Expired A black bin which has been used as a water butt, no lid or tap but does not leak. Might be useful on an allotment? I've had it in my front garden, but it's not very pretty! (Have upgraded...)

1y

Free: RHS Encyclopedia of Garden Plants (CB4, off Chesterton Road) Expired RHS Encyclopedia of Garden Plants - reference book (1997). 1080 pages, so rather heavy! And that has caused the spine to come away from the book. The pages are however all there and in clean and good condition, so could be a useful text book for someone.

Free: Standby Saver (CB4, off Chesterton Road) Gifted A "British Gas Standby Saver" , which looks like a multi-socket and can be used as such, but which also can cut power to appliances when not needed. Quote "It does this by recognising the signal from your TV remote control". There are some FAQs on the other side of the info in the photo - if anyone wants more info do ask! Never used (think these were given out by British Gas for free when they had some duty to help customers reduce energy use).
