    Been really lucky this week as we've been given a trampoline by a freecycler.
    I'd like to think it's karma for the stuff we've given away in the past including a man's bike and a washing machine. As it happens they had so many requests they put names in a hat and we were chosen. We (well DS mostly) are incredibly grateful - just need a bit of nice weather now....

    Do agree with others who check what the requester has offered/taken in the past. I guess not everyone agrees but that's the way we do it.

I am looking for an old working pc or laptop to get my nan online so she leaves me alone (in the nicest way possible) I don't mind traveling to pick it up.

    How do these items go together? If they don't get jeans,they'll wear the tent? If they don't get a tent, they'll shelter under the open laptop? If they don't get a laptop they'll construct a solar powered communications satellite from denim and canvas?

    wtd: Small single loudspeaker
    Posted by:
    Tue Jun 26, 2012 11:33 pm (PDT)



    Morning all,

    I need a small speaker to add to my new radio kit as the built in one is not too great.

    Don't *really* want any Midi Hifi thing, but I'm after a decent brand. Eltac, Acoustic Solutions, JPW, KEF, Tannoy, MA, etc etc...

    Ta very much :)
