Free: reflective jacket - needs repair (NR2) I love this size 8 jacket, but I think it was a bit too small for me, becausea month ago I ripped the elbow and then the other day I ripped it under the arm. If anyone is a mean sewing person, I'm sure there's an easy way to make it useable again. Seems a shame coz retails at £50 online, and is amazing for cycling coz you can be seen for miles, but currently it's not waterproof, so no use to me :(

Free: Hosepipe and holder (NR2) Gifted Approx 9-10m of hosepipe and the holder to go with it. A bit rusty on the bit that touches the floor, and shower head is a bit chipped, but works fine.

Request: Broken mirrors (NR2) Surely can't be bad luck to recycle someone else's broken mirrors? The bigger the better - I'm going to try to make a garden mosaic....as close to NR2 as possible, to reduce unnecessary breakages and sharps injuries :) thanks for looking...

Request: Tiny bit of turf (NR2) Expired I've slightly misjudged a garden project and have just given away too much turf, and now realised I'm missing a patch which is 3m long x50cm wide (basically a short path) or any combination of that area. Anyone got any spare grass?! I'd be happy to come and dig it up myself...:)

Free: Top soil (NR2) Expired I'll be digging up some decent top soil over the next month or so, if anyone would like a head start dibs for some summer planting?

Free: Fat face bag - 1 repair (NR2) Gifted This is a lovely leather bag from fast face, and I've only worn it a few times, but I carried too much in it the other day and the shoulder strap pulled out of the seam. I don't have the skills or equipment to fix it, and charity shops won't take it broken, so I'm hoping there might be someone out there who can revive it and use it. Sharpie used for size perspective.

Free: Childs helmet (NR2) Expired Just too small for our little one now. A tiny bit of polystyrene has broken off the back corner, but it wasn't in an accident, and it's a well made helmet. Circumference 46-53cm so probably for a 1-2year old. Ours has a big head.
