Loratadine tablets (OTC) 180 (Llangynllo LD7)
Expiry date: 20 July 2027 A collection of 6 small packets was received wrapped in a cellophane envelope. The cellophane was then partly opened but none of the six small packets were removed (or opened). If you have any reservations about buying packets of tablets around which a cellophane wrapping has been partly removed, then you should not request these 6 packets. Collection can be at almost any time, any day. I will keep them until it's convenient for someone to drop by Llangynllo.

6 Bamboo Shrubs, Non-Invasive (Llangynllo LD7)
Gifted
I have six of these beautiful bamboo plants to give away. They are roughly between a metre and 1.5 metres in height. They look stunning if placed apart from each other (see the third photo showing one of the plants standing by itself). But if these 6 shrubs were to be placed fairly close together (as in the first photo) they will offer a mature and ready-made privacy-screen of about 2 metres in length. The roots of this kind of bamboo are fibrous and non-invasive. In other words, the roots of these bamboo plants do not consist of horizontal runners which spread underground. See the middle photograph proving that the roots are fibrous. I have placed each one in the plastic bags shown in the first photo with a few holes in the bottom of each bag for drainage. If you would like to have them I would recommend bringing 6 big bin-bags so as to pop each one inside a further (water-proof) bag for travelling. This kind of clumping bamboo (with fibrous roots instead of runners) can be grown safely in the ground, but to be safe I would still place a barrier around them. The safest option is to place them in pots with some compost (bamboo likes a well-rotted compost with a reasonable amount of fibre in it). Some stones or chips scattered on top of the soil or compost keeps weeds away. Fargesia Rufa is a hardy, evergreen, outdoor plant which thrives best in a shady and fairly sheltered position. It is child- and pet-safe. Fargesia Rufa of this height, density, and maturity currently sell for as much as £59 each.

Kingsize mattress - newish unused (Llangynllo LD7)
Gifted
This kingsize mattress, bought 4 years ago for £350, for a spare room, has not been used, so it's in perfect condition (totally clean and totally undamaged). The only reason for giving it away is that it will not suit a forthcoming guest who has a back problem and who therefore must sleep on an extra-firm mattress (the mattress being offered here is medium-soft). Collection has to be by vehicle no bigger than a supermarket grocery-van, to cope with a short section of steep lane near the house. The house is located 20 minutes' drive from Presteigne, 20 minutes' drive from Knighton, and 30 minutes' drive from Llandrindod Wells.

Window frame with glass panes (Llangynllo LD7)
Gifted
This is a complete window frame with intact window panes (single glazed). It is of high quality construction but due to having sat unused in a barn for 15 years it would cleaning up (sanding and painting) before being used again as a window. However, if it were just given a good brushing and a hosing down, it could be used for other purposes, for example, to protect young plants from wind or frost, if laid against the side of a wall, as a cloche. The window is 90cm high and 176cm long. Collection only. Unable to deliver.
