Free: Vintage turntable (possibly faulty) (AL2 park street) This is a vintage Sharp SG-309H turn table, complete with instructions, original speakers, and a disk it seems. As far as I can see it seems to be in good condition but if I recall correctly, I couldn’t get it to work at the time so it just went into the attic for decades. From what I remember, the table spins but no sound comes out, so I bought some new needles but never got around to fixing it. I’ve included those needles. Maybe if that’s not the reason it doesn’t work, they will be of use in some other way. The first 2 photos are from the internet, but the last one is the actual thing. But I don’t have the space to set it all up nicely. Perhaps a tinkerer wants to have a go? This item is currently in AL2 so priority to anyone that can collect from there. Otherwise, it can be made available in SG6 for collection there instead.

Free: Desk between two drawers (AL2 park street) Big slab across two chests of drawers. Looks like the top desk part should come off with a bit of convincing, I lifted it up and I can see dowels coming out, it has a bit of play. You’re welcome to try and fit it in your car, or just take it all in one piece. Couple of signs of usage, see photos

Free: Large freestanding lamp + shade (AL2 / SG6) Gifted Fridge not included, just the lampshade and stem. The fitting on the lampshade for the lightbulb is quite large by the way! Currently in AL2, but can be collected from SG6

Free: Wooden desk and chair (AL2 / SG6) Gifted

12d

Free: Vintage wooden chair (AL2 / SG6) Made of proper wood, built to last (and last it has). But it’s available for anyone that wants it. Even has a removable seat for cleaning. Needs a bit of love but for the all low price of free he can be yours. Currently in AL2 but can be available in SG6 also

Free: Pin board (AL2 / SG6) Gifted Well loved pin board, but still plenty of life left. Has two metal hooks on the back to attach to the wall. Currently in AL2, but can also be collected from SG6

Free: Vintage pink wall chandelier (AL2 / SG6) Gifted This is very very old, fully functional, but removed as it’s quite old. Seems to be made of cast brass? So it’s quite heavy. I’ve got all the original fittings for it but they use flathead so you may want to swap them out for Philips ones. Up to you. Definitely could use some attention and a bit of a clean, but the light it emits is very pretty even in its current state. Ready to wire up, each light takes a live and a neutral. The lampshades just pop on to the bulb, held in place by metal tension clips. The fittings it uses are bayonet. Currently in AL2 but can be made available in SG6 too

Free: Jumbo box of expired makeup (AL2 / SG6) Gifted Not really been used that much, quite a lot of stuff here too, I can see some nails too. This expired quite a long time ago, maybe 2-3 years? So use it at your own risk. Meant to give it away before but we moved house and it got forgotten about. Maybe of interest? Feel free to rummage or just take the lot. The pink thing is an ultrasonic face massager, a bit pointless really imo. Feel free to leave that if you don’t want it. Currently in AL2, preference to those that can collect from there but also can be made available in SG6

Free: Vintage double leaf side table (AL2 / SG6) Gifted A well loved ornamental side table. Definitely needs some attention aesthetically but made way back when people cared! Real wood. It doesn’t have legs underneath it, you rotate it to unfold both legs and then they stay up. It has a bolt underneath too if you want it to be more sturdy, not that it moves on its own anyway. Currently in AL2, but can be collected from SG6 also

Free: A LOT of sugar free gum (AL2 / SG6) Gifted ——PLEASE READ——— It’s the “plain” flavour, and to me it tastes like floral soapy essence plastic. So be warned! Please don’t take this if you don’t know what it is! I have tried one of them, and I did not like it at all. They’re individually wrapped so it shouldn’t matter I had one. You’re welcome to come and try one, if you want (early Halloween I guess). No trick required. These are currently in AL2 so preference will be given to anyone that can collect from there, but can be made available in SG6. Please state in your reply where you want to collect it from.

Free: 2x cupboards on wheels (AL2 park street) Big wardrobes, got 2 of them. One has some shelves in, the other is empty aside from a divider at the top.

Also easily repaired. Only available in AL2 due to its size.

Free: Big desk (AL2 park street) The sides are metal, the top is chipboard. Has got some rust. Might come apart with some convincing, it has fittings but they look a bit rusty.

Free: Vintage watches (AL2 / SG6) Gifted All from a drawer in a house clearing - presumably the “broken” drawer because they don’t seem to work but maybe can repaired. They don’t seem to have screws in the back so I assume they’re wind up but they don’t make any feedback when you turn them so I thought best not to mess with them further so not to break it.
