Free: Dishwasher (Slinfold RH13) Whirlpool ADP5966 full size dishwasher. About 25 years old and still working but we need to downsize to a slimline model. Broken rinse aid cover so you just need to use all-in-one tablets. Broken small grill at bottom front, cosmetic only. To be collected any time before Sunday 3rd April, when it will be taken away for recycling. Might be a 2-person job to move it, and a large car or van.

Free: Christmas card fronts for crafting (Slinfold RH13) Gifted Now is the time to start your homemade Christmas stationery! I have a pile of assorted used greetings cards (mostly Christmas), front part only - I have cut off the greeting half that's been written on. May be useful for crafting your own Christmas cards, gift-tags, tokens, etc. Here's an idea for sustainability: if making your own cards, attach a small sheet of paper on the inside with a paperclip, on which to write your greeting, etc. Encourage the recipient to re-use the card next year in likewise manner. Everyone saves money, the planet saves trees.
