Free: Pallets - good for wood projects? (Gorse Hill M32) Pallets - good for dismantling cutting for projects where sound timber is needed. You don't have to take all of them. I'll remove the dimensions for the pallets that have been taken. Dimensions.: 2 of 100 x 120 cm 1 of 105 x 106cm 1 of 81x 67cm 1 of 90 x 120cm All measurements are approximate. They'll fit in a reasonably sized car. The largest (100x120) squeezed into my Tiguan. To go asap please.

Free: Four plastic garden chairs (Gorse Hill M32) These are white and they've been exposed to builders so have some dried brick mortar stuck on them. I've removed some of it but didn't bother doing any more as I've enough chairs now. So these are now surplus to requirements. Apart from the mortar needing removing they are otherwise in good useable condition.

Request: Bird bath (Stretford M32) I noticed a small bird pirched on the back of one of our garden benches this morning and saw that it looked to be struggling with the heat. So thought I'd ask if anyone has an old bird bath something like in the photos to donate to our communal scheme. We have a landlord who doesn't care about this area of the scheme so we're having to do what we can in our over 55s scheme. I've put up a very rickety bird house thing (it's got a roof so that keeps what's inside cool) with a plastic container with water in it. But I can't see that lasting long if it gets used. I'm happy to collect.

Request: Wood paint - cuprinol (Stretford M32) Withdrawn I'm looking to paint some pallets for a makeshift partition between table chairs etc. And a bunch of awful looking wheelie bins in a communal garden area. So the pallets look less like 🤔well pallets really. The landlord won't do anything. So it's left to me or it won't get done.

Free: Worktop hob oven - needs repairs (Gorse Hill M32) Gifted I was given this and was hoping it would solve my cooking needs unfortunately it doesn't work properly. So this item needs to be repaired by somebody before it can be used safely. It does work but the oven doesn't get above 150 C (that may be the door not sealing properly)? The hobs also work but the larger of the two, the disc covering the element has come away. The cover does sit on top snuggly but it's not fixed to the top. If nobody collects ASAP it will sadly have to be appropriately disposed of. Because I don't have the room to store it and I don't have the time to look at fixing it myself. In your response please indicate that you understand this needs repairing.
