Free: Pedestal Mats (Walderslade ME5) There are 1 M&S and 3 John Lewis cream colour pedestal mats. The M&S is photo 1 and John Lewis photo 2. The photos make the mats appear to have yellow markings but this is caused by folds in the mats, they are not marked at all.

Free: Towel Rail (Walderslade ME5) Chrome, double towel rail approx 25cm wide with two fixing brackets. The brackets are fixed to the wall and the rail clamps on to them so it is important to get the brackets exactly the right distance apart.

They do have marks on them and the larger blind is frayed down one side but it is possible to trim the edges. They would be suitable for a shed or garage window where appearance does not matter. Brackets are included.

Free: Roller Blinds (Walderslade ME5) Gifted The dimensions of these blinds are (in inches) : 43.5 x 58 and 14 x 58. The 58 inch measurement is the drop of the blind. The mounting brackets can be fixed either inside the window recess or external to the window recess. There a few splashes on the blinds that should be easily removeable with a damp cloth and washing up liquid. The photos show some large brown marks on the blinds. They are not on the blinds but are the shadows from the window frame behind the blinds.

Free: Net Curtains and Rods (Walderslade ME5) Gifted There are 6 net curtains all of the same style. All measurements are in INCHES and are approximate There are ONE of each of the dimensions shown. The WIDTH is first then the HEIGHT. 132 x 80; 126 x 52; 138 x 43; 124 x 39; 86 x 39; 88 x 86. The rods are adjustable in length. All that's needed is a screwdriver. They should be set to slightly larger than the window recess width so that the spring is compressed enough to hold the rod and curtain in position. There are TWO adjustable from 36 inches to 64 inches and FOUR adjustable from 48 inches to 80 inches.

Free: Clothes Steamer - NOT WORKING (Walderslade ME5) Gifted This device has only been used once but now refuses to work. Unfortunately, it is now out of warranty. The problem seems to be that the pump will not prime. If you want to have a go at getting it to work again then you are welcome to try. It was headed for the recycling bin but I wanted to see if anyone was interested before doing that.

Free: Electric cables (Walderslade ME5) Gifted There are three lengths of cable. I haven't measured them but they fairly long. One is wired as an extension lead, one has a mains plug connected but nothing on the other end and one is just a length of cable. I have removed the fuse in the cable with just the mains plug for safety reasons and this should not be replaced until the other end is safely terminated by a connector.

Free: Triumph Herald handbook (Walderslade ME5) Gifted I found this Triumph Herald 13/60 handbook while having a clear out. It's in remarkably good condition and while I don't expect many of you have a Triumph Herald I thought it might be of interest to someone. The two things I remember about my Triumph was the way the whole front of the car tilted forwards to enable access to the engine and front suspension and it's tendency to wear the front tyres out very quickly if you kept using the incredible steering lock.

Free: Radio, CD and Cassette Player (Walderslade ME5) Gifted Although this item has been stored in a garage for several years it is still in full working order as far as the radio and CD player are concerned. I am unable to test the dual tape players as I don't have any cassettes but, if you have any, I would think there is a very good chance it will work with them as well. The speakers are detachable. It can be powered by batteries but it is quite heavy so I don't recommend carrying it over your shoulder (for those of you who remember Ghetto Blasters).

Free: Le Crueset Wok (Walderslade ME5) Gifted This wok type pan is 14" in diameter (excluding the handles) and has a glass lid. It has seen a fair bit of usage but it's a Le Crueset so it's still got years of use left. Ideal for cooking meals for the larger family.

Free: Old Books (Walderslade ME5) Gifted I have some old books dating from 1874 (Opening a Chestnut Burr) to 1921 (The Dessert Valley) that I want to dispose of. They vary in condition but considering their age they're not too bad. I want to make you aware that by today's standards some of the content may not be PC but things were different then and reflect the standards of their time.
