Piano music for ballet (Cedars estate, Ch'wd end WD3 7) Expired A variety of books, most dating from the time when ballet lessons were accompanied by a live pianist. - Royal Academy of Dancing Examinations: Grades I, II, III and IV; - RAD Children's Examinations (1968) - RAD Children's Examinations Alternative Music (including music for Boys' work - 1969) - Movement and Melody by Phyllis Quale (1958 - another world! "Intended for use in Schools and Classes for physical culture, dancing and eurhythmics." There used to be a schools radio programme called Music and Movement, which might have been similar. A real piece of history! - Jewels from the Ballet. This is a collection of well-known themes, simply arranged, perhaps suitable for a young pianist who is also keen on ballet. (1946, the cover is a bit battered, but the tunes don't change!)

Egg boxes (Cedars estate, Ch'wd end WD3 7) Expired I have about 2 dozen 6-egg boxes and a few 12-egg ones. Any use to anyone?

Shakespeare complete works (Cedars estate, Ch'wd end WD3 7) Expired Complete works of Shakespeare. Slightly tatty dust jacket, otherwise good condition.

Oxford Companion to Music (Cedars estate, Ch'wd end WD3 7) Expired This is an old edition, the fifth, dated 1944, by Percy Scholes. Obviously no entries for music from the second half of the 20th century, but there was quite a lot around before that!

Board Games (Cedars estate, Ch'wd end WD3 7) Gifted I have a variety of games from probably the 1970s including Trivial Pursuits, Cluedo, Master Mind, Scrabble (well used!). Also Buccanneer and Campaign which may be revivals of even older games, and some packs of cards. There is also an old Monopoly set, with instructions in Hindi, presumably acquired by my husband's family when they lived in India. (The board still has the English names.) These would be well suited to an old people's home, or perhaps a memory cafe group. You don't need to take them all!

Maths textbooks (Cedars estate, Ch'wd end) Gifted These are old and out of date, from a teaching career which finished 20 years ago. They are all for secondary pupils, up to A-level, including O-level and GCSE books. A few Physics books too, but not A-level. There are lots, so you will have to look at them and I don't expect any individual to take them all!
