Free: Plastic temporary greenhouse (Aspley NG8) Gifted Plastic tent style greenhouse, absolutely awful quality, extremely lightweight, anchors down with string and tentpegs, can't cope with strong breeze. Only been up two days and already got blown over and has three smallish tears at the bottom of the utterly flimsy plastic cover. Might be some use to somebody with an allotment? Very easy to disassemble. Please say when you could collect.

Free: Grey spotty shopping trolley (Aspley NG8) Expired Shopping trolley, only used a couple of times. Not great quality and poor design, as the bag only attaches to the frame at the handle, nothing at the base.

245d

Free: Run for small pets (Aspley NG8) Gifted KCT enclosed apex metal pet playpen, medium size. Could be used indoors for a hamster, though maybe too big for indoors, or indoors or outdoors for a guinea pig, I think. Never been used but metal frame has been outdoors over this winter, so very small amount of weather damage but won't affect its use. Has green fabric cover for roof. Please say when you can collect.

253d

Free: Solar fountain (Aspley NG8) Gifted Not working properly. Amur brand frog fountain (says for bird bath, but it's quite big). Bronze colour frog on stone is a good size, but not a real stone of course. Pretty much unused, as it didn't work properly but I didn't manage to return it to Amazon for a refund. PLEASE NOTE: NOT IN PROPER WORKING ORDER. From memory, it seemed the pump didn't work correctly. It worked ok for a short time but would then stop working. I don't think the problem was the solar panel because I fitted that to something else and it seemed to work fine. Probably not hard to repair or replace pump if that's the issue. Please say when you could collect.
