Request: a chimney pot required for growing rhubarb (Kinson Village Green Stocks BH10) a friend has pointed out how well her rhubarb grows due to being in a pottery chimney pot - it helps to "force" the rhubarb as well as warming the soil and retaining the heat when the nights are cold. So a chimney pot would be great or something similar.

Free: sleeping bag liners & inflatable double mattress (Kinson Village Green Stocks BH10) Gifted I have 2 100% cotton sleeping bag liners from the days when we used to do a lot of hiking and stayed in huts en route. They are the sort required for hostels where blankets are provided but not sheets. I also have a double size inflatable mattress. I think we used it once when we were camping. Everything has been in the shed for a few years and I have no way to test if the mattress is still good to use.

Free: FANS! Get them while it's hot! (Kinson Village Green Stocks BH10) Gifted 2 small (10 inch?) electric fans. white, working as far as I know. We've replaced with larger fans so no longer need these.

Free: Gardening bits and pieces! Including mini greenhouse! (Kinson Village Green Stocks BH10) Gifted I've tidied up my gardening stuff a bit and so far have a mini greenhouse (Ikea I think) and a number of other things. There is - a hand pump sprayer good for pesticide or similar - half circle planter to hang on a wall - 3 glass vases - 4 decorative planters - small trug - green garden ties - hyacinth bowl (scrub it and it would be a nice soup bowl!) - extendable attachment for hanging baskets (to make watering easier I think) - and a "Santa" themed double bulb hyacinth planter (or use it for candles?) - and (not shown) lots of plastic pots great for starting your seeds or growing on plants. Also quite a few trays to put the pots in though I'll admit they were all freebies from Tesco etc where they were initially used for transport of yoghurt. I'm continuing the tidying on Sunday so there may well be more. Hoping to have it all gone asap - Sunday or Monday - otherwise it will be off to a charity shop somewhere. If there's something you need but I've not listed it - let me know and I'll check to see what I've got!!!!

Request: Roofing felt for shed (Kinson Village Green Stocks BH10) Received Hey there Time has taken it's toll and the felt has been stripped from our tool shed roof. I admit I'm reluctant to spend £££ for a massive roll when all I need is a few meters. Does any have any that they would like to dispose of in my direction?? Not sure what sort of nails or whatever are also required so maybe you have spares of those as well. I'm not overly handy but I'm sure I can bang a hammer happily while standing on a ladder!!! Happy to pick up any contributions at your convenience!!! Any excess I can pass along to someone else or drop at the tip.
