Children's wheelbarrows/planters (Odd Down BA2) Wooden wheelbarrows, overall length 80cm. Some holes drilled for drainage, which could be filled. A couple of the ends of the legs have woodworm damage and one wheel is stiff, but otherwise they're in good, sturdy condition, having been stored for years in the shed, which I now need to clear!

Venetian blinds (Odd Down) Gifted Black, aluminium venetian blinds x 3, width 83cm x 1m 65 max drop. Having had some windows replaced and plasterwork done, these no longer fit. About 20 years old, still in decent condition and in working order, but one has a few not very noticeable slightly misshapen slats at one end. I washed them all when removed, thinking they would go back up. Also the simple fixings and screws. Definitely usable, it would be a pity to take them to the tip!
