Camping fridge (Portishead BS20)
This is a Groënland CTL 175 camping fridge designed for versatility, capable of running on gas, 12V DC, or 230V mains electricity. It is an absorption-type cooler, offering silent operation suitable for camping, awnings. Capacity: 35 Litres. Power Sources: 3-way operation (Gas, 12V DC, 230V AC). Dimensions: Approximately (w) 53cm x (D) 41cm x (H) 44cm. This is OLD - purchased in the late 80's - and shows many signs of use . We have run it on Camping Gaz in the past. (regulator included BUT the rubber gas pipe will need replacing. The fridge MUST be level to work. Most of the time we used it on mains electric and I've just checked and this works including freezing the ice cubes. For years we used it at Christmas time to chill the drinks and milk - making more room in the home fridge for food!! However time moves on and family have their own homes so we go there now. I have a copy of the original manual and the original ice cube trays. Please message me if you are interested.

Toy Fire Engine (Portishead BS20)
Gifted
Old and slightly damaged toy fire engine now outgrown by the grandchildren. I took the batteries out shortly after it arrived in my house - flashing lights and noisy sirens are not for me! The hose has broken from the water tank so no longer squirts water but the children seemed happy to play with it tied around the 'hose reel' and hooked onto the basket at the top of the ladder. Size is approx 40cm x 13cm Before I take this to the tip is there anyone who can use it?

Can anyone make use of this rather old DIY guide by Readers Digest. We must have had it back in the 70's and it has sat on the shelf ever since. Some of the 'how to' instruction may now bea bit outdated but much of the basics are still valid and the manual has LOADS of ideas. Please message me if you are interested.

TV stand/coffee table (Portishead BS20)
Expired
Beech coloured laminate board. 120 cm x 40 cm x 41 cm height. Middle shelf for sky box (or similar). Some damage to underside of bottom shelf (It was the top but I 've turned it all around so the damage doesn't show.) and one of the grey 'legs' holding the middle shelf in place has broken where it screws into the bottom part of the leg with the shelf between. All the other legs are good and hold the damaged one in place. The damage is not visible just don't try to move the unit by the legs/supports and all will be well. Collection only from Portishead.

Dressmaking Patterns (Portishead BS20)
Expired
I have a quantity of dressmaking patterns (some used but complete and some uncut) dating back mainly to the 1970's - 1990's. They include babies, toddler, girls and ladies patterns. There are also a few for soft toys and 'Sindy' doll clothes. The pictures show a small sample of the approx 69 patterns avaiable. They are in a variety of sizes, some are multi sized, and ALL need to be checked for actual body measurements on the pattern envelopes as older patterns were sized differently to modern day versions. If these may be of use to you please contact me. Collection from Portishead

This is an old (almost vintage) Corby Cadet Trouser Press. We haven't used it for years but I have regularly hung my clothes over it overnight in preparation for the day ahead.

It also has slots on the back to enable it to be hung on a wall if wanted. The feet are removable. Collection from Portishead.

Two chipboard panels (Portishead BS20)
Expired
Surplus to requirements. The smaller piece is 75.5 x 55.5 cms and has one finished edge. The larger piece is 75.5 X 66 cms. Both pieces have holes on one side and the side edges for the intended fixings. They are supposed to be the top and one side of a storage cupboard and have never been used because I was sent replacements by the seller when the original didn't arrive and then a couple of months later these turned up! Collection from Portishead.
