Pair of Georgian-paned, single-glazed window sashes (N1) These were replaced a year ago, after being professionally repaired and repainted (white) on the outside. They have been kept indoors since and are in reasonable used condition. Each sash has six small panes of glass. Both sashes are marginally over 30 inches wide; one is 28 inches high and the other, about 27 inches high. Could be used in the garden to cover cold frames or as cloches to warm up bare soil in early spring.

Limewash (lime-based paint) for indoor and/or outdoor use (N1) Some parts of previously very damp walls on this old house had to be re-rendered in lime, which can only be painted with limewash - not acrylic paint, which would stop it 'breathing'. Does anyone by any chance have any leftover limewash to spare? I need it in a pale colour - white or something like magnolia would be perfect.

Inflatable cushion (N1) Received I need an inflatable cushion to help mitigate persistent sciatica but can't find a good one available new. If anyone has one to spare, that inflates well and stays inflated, I'd really appreciate that.

Wicker cat carrier (N1) Gifted Wicker carrying basket, half-hoop shaped over flat base, with a wicker carrying handle on top. The door is made from 1-inch square, plastic-covered metal mesh, with original hinges and 2 buckled leather straps to fasten it. Old but lightly used and in good condition. No photograph available (no working digital camera). Collect from near Dalston Junction station.

Glass fish tank (N1) Gifted I was given this last year (to raise frogs from frogspawn) but don't need it any longer. It has a metal frame fitted with glass panes and is two feet long by one foot wide and deep, with a good metal lid. There are fittings to hold an electric striplight - which I didn't need, so never tested - but the wiring probably doesn't work any longer. One person can lift it but not carry it very far.
