Old wellington boots (Bloomfield)
Received
This message is on behalf of my daughter who is in her final year of a Product and Furniture Design course and needs lots of wellies - in any condition. She is investigating vulcanised rubber, including its history in Bradford on Avon, and needs the wellies to create a new product (a chair!). Thank you.

Cordless phone (Bloomfield)
Expired
Siemen’s cordless landline handsets. The main one was definitely working before we moved house and gave up our landline. The second set may or may not work. Any use to anyone?

Spanish film on video (Bloomfield)
Expired
Still in its wrapping! An award winning film from 1997 (shortlisted for the best foreign film at the Oscars). I Can’t tell if it has English subtitles but if you’re a Freegle with a video player, good Spanish and an interest in cinema - this is your lucky day!

Free:
2 lamp bases (Bloomfield)
Expired
2 identical candlestick lamp bases (without shades). Made of lightweight material so not especially solid or sturdy, but in good condition. Kitchen roll to give an idea of size.

Request:
2 Christmas crackers (Bloomfield)
Expired
This may be overly stingy/waste averse (depending on your pov), but I need just 2 Christmas crackers and am trying to avoid buying a whole box of them. If you have 2 going spare, I’d be very grateful for them - of any type. OR if you also don’t need a whole box’s worth, I could buy some and we could share.

WiFi range extenders (Bloomfield)
Gifted
Two plug in gadgets to help extend your WiFi range to parts of your house far from your router. I moved to a smaller house a couple of years ago and no longer need them. I don’t know if they’re still useful or have been superseded by more advanced technology (and please don’t ask me any questions about how they work!).

Free:
Turf (Bloomfield)
Gifted
5 square metres of turf (we overestimated how much we’d need).

Electric razor (Bloomfield)
Gifted
This was left behind by a house guest at my mother’s. She’s giving it away as the guest can’t be contacted. I’ve plugged it in and it powers up so I presume it works.

Philips electric shaver (Bloomfield)
Expired
This was left behind by a house guest at my mother’s. She’s giving it away as the guest can’t be contacted. I’ve plugged it in and it powers up so I presume it works. I’m coming back to Bath tomorrow so if anyone can make use of this, please respond today or tomorrow morning.

Free:
Cassette box (Bloomfield)

Free:
Frankenstein museum guide (Bloomfield)
Gifted
A bit of a long shot, but if anyone is planning a visit to Mary Shelley’s House of Frankenstein (well worth it!), the guide us a nice extra.

Free:
White floor paint (Bloomfield)
Gifted
Half a 5 litre tin of Mylands white floor satin paint. It’s been stored for nearly two years but it was hard to get the lid off just now to check the quantity so it will have been airtight.

Big A2 display book (Bloomfield)
Expired
Unused (but old - it’s been in the back of a cupboard for over 10 years!). Plastic. 20 pockets. There is a crack in the back cover (see photo).

Free:
2 small bookcases (Bloomfield)
Gifted
Sturdy and useful but not stylish. Made from wood effect chipboard (pretty convincing, tbh). One has been reinforced with metal plates, and has a hole in the back (for socket access?). Both have odd edging at the top (see pics). I think they were used one on top of the other (I got them for free but they don’t fit in my space). Width - 80cm Depth - 32cm Height - one is 99cm and the other, with bottom shelf off the ground, is 101cm

Free:
Office chair (Bloomfield)
Gifted
Blue office chair, with castors that roll properly and adjustable height. The fabric has lost a thread here and there, and there are a few white threads coming through from the padding (I think). I’ve cleaned it with furniture fabric cleaner but there’s a still a faint stain (see photo 3).

Free:
Cardboard boxes (Bloomfield)
Gifted
I’ve got 6 (maybe more) cardboard boxes the perfect size for packing up and moving, or storing, books and heavier items - not so big that they’re too heavy to lift.

Request:
Hiking poles (Bloomfield)
Received
I am joining my daughter for the last 4 days walking of her Camino de Santiago de Compostela and all my serious walking friends say poles are a must. In case anyone has any they no longer need, I’d be very grateful to take them - and no doubt make good use of them. Thanks.

Size small. With (discrete) initials AD (ideally suited for someone called Angela Davies or Arthur Doyle etc). Very good condition.

Request:
Waterproof jacket (Bloomfield)
Expired
A tall order, I realise, but if anyone has a properly waterproof, size 12 rain jacket they don’t need, my daughter is about to go on a 4-week trek and would be hugely grateful for it. Thanks.

Free:
Wooden chest (Bloomfield)
Expired
Wooden chest with mock alligator (?) covering and mock leather straps. Perfectly functional (we used it for teenage shoe collection) if a bit battered - both straps close but one is not stuck down all the way because it’s missing a stud (see pic) and one of the 3 wooden strip to strengthen the inside of the lid needs fixing (see pic). Dimensions: 68cm wide, 41cm deep, 39 cm tall.

Gifted
Big quantity of big bubble bubble wrap. About 10 lengths of approx 190cm x 75cm. Has been used (to insulate windows) but mostly in very good, functioning condition. I need to move it on in the next couple of days.
