Bathroom blind (Stoke Gifford BS34)
Neutral ecru bathroom or loo roller blind, 16”/41cm wide with minimum 59”/150cm drop, to fit standard modern bathroom window with 36”/90cm opening. Complete with roller, pull, weight and fixings. Nice and bright, only getting rid of it due to bathroom revamp. Pattern: small spirals. Material: treated stiffened linen Bottom of blind is slightly faded, slightly darker towards the top, as shown in last picture. However, that won’t show in a standard bathroom opening/ drop - there’s more material than needed for the drop i.e. even when down it would be rolled up and the line doesn’t show anyway; or it could be cut down to fit given the overall length, and no one would be any the wiser.

3 nice tins/caddies (Stoke Gifford BS34)
Three nice tins which are all really too good to throw away and useful to store bits and bobs or teas in, etc. Jewellery findings, sewing materials, nails and screws, handy to keep together all those little things that otherwise get strewn about in a larger box or tin. From L to R: circular tin with colourful riff on Union Jack (originally contained a mug), embossed M&S spiced tea caddy, and Leonidas chocolate tin with retro shop scenes. All empty - no scent inside the Union Jack or retro shop chocolate box. However, the tea caddy is still quite strongly scented inside, so if you wanted it for tea, probably best for spiced or other aromatic teas, but if you want it to store bits and bobs in your garage etc. that's not a problem! Happy to split if you just want one or two, but if they can all go together that would be great!

M&S Little Shop collectibles (Stoke Gifford BS34)
Gifted
Complete set of 25 M&S Little Shop food collectibles together with a list to tick off and educational cards - food facts, jokes and M&S facts (one card is missing - never given a card with the OJ!)

Or might be a fun stocking filler - never too early to plan for Christmas! We collected these in 2019 as a bit of fun even though we’re grown-ups, but it’s time to pass them on. Clean and in very good condition - cardboard can be recycled, and the soft plastic bits are now widely recycled locally including kerbside
