Amaryllis bulbs (Bowerham LA1)
Promised
I grew the seeds from an amaryllis flower from Christmas 2023/4 and the bulbs have formed really well. I have repotted some but don't have room for all! Anyone fancy giving one/some a go? No idea how long it might take before they flower. The original flower was beautiful white bloom

Washing machine (Bowerham LA1)
Expired
Logik washing machine, from neighbour who thinks it's not working properly. But when we took it out there was just a faulty connection to the hose behind which was leaking. So anyone want to give it a go before it goes to the tip? I used it a few years ago and it was fine. But I can't 100% vouch for it now (and I've already got one do can't test it)

Collins German dictionary (Bowerham LA1)
Expired
Comprehensive dictionary bought about 30 years ago when I was learning German: German> English, and vice versa. I don't think anyone really uses this kind of book any more so no point taking yo a charity shop. But could anyone use it or the pages, perhaps for craft projects, decoupage, or something?

Washing machine for repair or spares (Bowerham LA1)
Expired
Washing machine that I used a few years ago and that my next door neighbour now has. She says it's not working properly. I think it might not be spinning 100% well , so clothes come out still quite damp, but not exactly sure what's wrong. Anyone want to give it a go before we arrange to get rid of it next week?

Side cabinet (Bowerham LA1)
Expired
This is my neighbour's side cabinet. They've already taken the top bit off with the glass cupboards. So you could take the bottom bit only or both sections. 135cm x 82cm high x 46 depth = bottom bit only. Cabinets have an inner shelf. Good quality. Needs to go in next few days since they're clearing everything

Round dining table and chairs (Bowerham LA1)
Expired
Neighbour's furniture advertising for them. Needs to be cleared in next few days. Table 105cm width. Single pillar in middle with feet. Really good quality. Chairs match but have been reupholstered and don't have their fire retardant label any more. Both could be easily upcycled. Since they want to move quickly, offers to take both table and chairs together are preferred. However if you are interested in one or the other, let us know and we can note for a few days time!
