In good working order- a Christmas gift a few years ago and used for a few children’s parties. Probably needs a bit of a clean! Everything there but you’ll have to provide your own chocolate!

Old manual type-writer (Oxlinch GL10)
Gifted
All the keys are working but it needs new ink tape which I know you can get it but we haven’t used it for years so haven’t bothered. The zip on the case is a bit stiff but just about workable. Instruction manual included if you’re interested in renovating it. Maybe useful for kids as a plaything? Could deliver if you’re in central Stroud.

Cupboard (Oxlinch GL10)
Gifted
Approx height 120cm , length 150cm, depth 35cm The sliding doors are stiff and would need a bit of work but it’s a sturdy piece of furniture and I’m sure someone with a bit of time could give it a new life. Quite heavy so you’d need two people to collect and an estate / long hatchback or van. As soon as possible please as it’s going to have to move outside soon ( under a tarp).

This was my children’s chair and much loved but it’s no use to us now and the puppy chewed a bit of the original upholstery.

Kenwood mixer, all original attachments LOADS! Instruction booklet Includes bowl and different paddles for bread dough etc I’ve had this about 8 years and it worked perfectly until last year when it started to smell a bit as if the electrics were getting hot.
