Request: Corrugated clear plastic roofing sheets (Saltdean BN2) The glazing in my cloche frames is made from corrugated (or flat flexible but not double walled) clear acrylic or plastic roofing sheets, and several got smashed in the recent storms. Has anyone got any spare bits minimum size 1145mm (45 1/8”) x 390mm (15 7/16”) but bigger is fine as I can cut it. A few screw holes don’t matter, and if the sheets are bigger, then any damaged edges can be easily cut off. Many thanks for your time.

Free: Smart kettle (Saltdean BN2) Gifted Stainless steel smart kettle. It still boils manually but stopped working via its own app and Alexa. I’ve tried various resets and re-linking but can’t get it to work. Got a new one so giving away, as someone more IT savvy may be able to fix it. Otherwise it’s a very high quality fully stainless interior kettle, with no plastic touching the water.

Free: Tyre - Toyo R37 225/55 R18 98H (Saltdean BN2) Gifted Original tyre fitted by manufacturer to Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV’s (mine is 2018). Only lightly used - I’ve always replaced tyres in pairs and kept the undamaged ones when I got a puncture, so I could use them the next time to keep tyre pairs at similar levels of ware. I’ve now changed to a different make, so don’t need this.

Request: Greenhouse - Crittall Type (Saltdean BN2) Expired I need to repair an old Crittall aluminium greenhouse, which are no longer made. They’re fairly easy to identify even if the labels have fallen off the tops of the gable ends because they have sloping sides and most don’t have gutters. If you have one you no longer want (any size will do) I will happily dismantle it and take it all away - including unbroken glass - to use as spare parts and/or to extend mine. I’m retired so can do this at any time to suit you. Many thanks, Greg
