Baby changing table (Glemsford CO10)
Has any one got a baby changing table they no longer use? I'm not worried about colour or condition, although one with a shelf underneath would be best for my purposes. I live in Glemsford but am in Colchester midweek, so could collect along that route or surrounding area. Thank you.

save Percy (Monkwick CO2)
Gifted
This is Percy, the Christmas Cactus. He was given to a friend of mine, by her mother-in-law, when she moved into her first house. That was over seventy years ago. My friend is now ninety-seven. She has had to move to Manchester to be near family and Percy, who blooms profusely every year, is in need of tender care and adoption. Definitely re-potting and a good feed. He is spread over about 24", and needs a bright spot out of direct sunlight. This is an urgent request, as I am moving this weekend and cannot take him with me. If you think you can give Percy a good home, please message. He can be left on the doorstep for collection. Blackheath end of Mersea Road. Sometimes this weekend, please.
