Floral blackout curtains (Iffley Road OX4)
Gifted
John Lewis blackout curtains, white/off-white with a multicolour pastel floral pattern. 1.55m wide and 1.75m tall (each). I suppose they would cover a 2.5m by 1.5m window or something like that. There are some marks on them, but mostly on the back. Overall OK condition I think.

Blue Kuhn-Rikon oven dish thing (Iffley Road OX4)
Only used a few times but accidentally broke the handle. The broken handle is included but I'm not sure there's a good way to reattach it. I don't think you can get a glue or resin that'll survive 200°C but maybe there's some other way. or you could just ignore the handles!

For raising big speakers off a desk to ear level for proper listening/monitoring. has anti-slip pads and feet. good condition but I think one of the stands has a height adjustment notch that's blocked.

knee brace (Oxford OX4)
Gifted
Elastoplast fabric/velcro knee support thing. Clean and in good condition. I've just given it a wash. Was very helpful when I injured my knee last year. Do you know anyone with a bad knee at the moment who might benefit? :)

wooden curtain rings (Oxford OX4)
Gifted
these are slightly inconsistent (some a bit flatter, some lighter/darker but these are wood after all)

Small-ish cardboard moving boxes (Oxford OX4)
Gifted
I think most of them are the same size (about 30 x 45 x 25 cm) but a few are slightly bigger. A filled box pictured as an example but they're all flattened for collection.

Particle board (Oxford OX4)
Withdrawn
this came in some furniture packaging - before I cut it up and put it in the bin, is it of any use to anyone? I heard that people sometimes paint on these. one big board, two small strips. can measure if needed.

"Da Bomb: Beyond Insanity" hot sauce (Oxford OX4)
Gifted
unopened. I can't see any dates on the bottle but it's at least 5 years old. does something like this even go off? I can't handle spice like I used to and I heard that this sauce is not only excruciatingly hot but that it tastes bad as well. but maybe you're a masochist or want to use it to keep slugs away or something? :^)

Cardboard (Oxford OX4)

Single inflatable camping mattress (Oxford OX4)

it's deflated in the pictures but it holds air fine. a couple of little marks but in decent shape otherwise. slept on this recently no problem, but I'm short on space and have a better air mattress.

Vango Alpha 300 3-person tent (Oxford OX4)
Gifted
bought in 2011 and used probably 6-8 times. used but certainly usable. has a few dirt marks but nothing too bad. probably missing a few pegs. "sleeps 3" intimately or 2 with a bit more space. a double air mattress fits in this, to give you an idea of size! I camped in this a couple of times in 2024 and it was fine. it's just that I've upgraded to a blackout tent.

Desktop Computer (Oxford OX4)
Received
any working desktop (tower) computer (circa 2010 or newer?) would be helpful to me if anyone has one kicking around that they don't want anymore. mine stopped booting a couple of months ago. no need for a hard drive or graphics card as I have my own ready to swap in. don't worry about whether or not it supports modern windows. I'm a linux user so it doesn't matter. I had a look on FB Marketplace but couldn't see any for sale locally. just thought I'd try here as I've been given free old PCs in the past. I miss my MP3 collection :'
