Old duvet, pillows & cushions (M20 West Didsbury)
Getting rid of some bits for someone else: 1. Duvet approx 160 x 180cm. Stained but a wash would sort that. 2. Two pillows, stained, but could wash. 3.Two petrol blue cushions 42 x 42cm square: water stained and one is lumpy. Again, might wash okay. Okay for pets if not wanted for people.

Two double airbeds (M20 West Didsbury)
Gifted
Pavillo brand. Both have built-in pumps but one not working, and one has a slow leak. You can have this electric pump though, and there are some patches too if you want to try to fix. Otherwise could be used as tarpaulins or ground sheets.

Jars for jam, chutney, knick-knacks (M20 West Didsbury)
Gifted
Clean, washed jars, most with lids, plus a few lids that don't fit any of the jars I have, for some reason (it's a bit like all those off socks that everyone seems to accumulate!). Sizes range from 130g to 280g. Happy to split.

White glass screw-in lampshade (M20 West Didsbury)
White glass globe lamp approx 16cm diameter. The measurement across the screw thread is about 8.5cm; depth of screw-in part is approx 2.3cm. It was attached to a brass wall fitting that has a spring clip rather than a thread. The brass has residual paint and some spots of rust, but it's usable indoors and takes a bayonet bulb. The arm fitting is tightened with a nut.

New ultra-gloss cupboard doors (M20 West Didsbury)
Gifted
Two unused tall cupboard doors, for kitchen, wardrobe, garage... Height 1555mm x width 396mm (each door, so for an 800mm-wide unit. Bought from if you want the right size of unit: you can get them cut to the right dimensions to fit these doors). 'Ultragloss acrylic', colour is 'Mussel' on the exterior and matt cream inside; the edges are 'glass effect'. Three hinge holes on each door. One door is slightly damaged at the bottom (see pic) but could be glued easily. Otherwise they just need a wipe as they've been in dry storage. The marks at the bottom are just a reflection of the windows above.

Settee covers & cushions (M20 West Didsbury)
Gifted
Seat and back cushions (feather, cotton and fibre) with removable covers for settee, plus cover for the settee frame. The covers are freshly washed (buy could do with ironing around the skirt), and are 100% cotton jacquard weave; they are faded, but totally usable as they are, or you could dye them, since the covers are all removable. The seat width is about 150cm between the arms. NOTE: I'm *not* offering the actual settee base and arms - I've just put the covers over my settee to show the shape. What's on offer is the cushions and all the fabric you can see in the photos. Let me know in your comments if you want any more measurements.
