Christmas wrapping paper (near Britannia Plaza)
Gifted
I have a slew of pieces of wrapping paper of various sizes. Apart from the 2 in the upper right with pointsesettia patterns (not sure where they are from), they are all vintage papers from Germany. Some have been used but are reusable, some are unused. Some are older than some people reading this and I care about where they'll go. If you want them, give me a hint why you'd want such oldish items.

windshield inside cleaning cloth (near Britannia Plaza)
Expired
I am looking for a cloth the wipe the inside of my windshield from the film that can build up and impede vision. I used to have one that looked similar to cloth used to clean eye glasses or silver, which I kept in the glove compartment and just pulled out as needed. I guess today one uses microfiber? Window cleaning is the lowest of my skills, so I am just posting this description.

Size is medium. this is a fairly long leather jacket, excellent wind breaker in winter, but the colour is visibly fading. For someone who can re-stain this, it would make a good jacket. Otherwise the leather can be repurposed. Zipper works.
