    No I don't have a Kenwood fp 2020 going spare but I do have a dictionary that you could borrow if you like?

    I think they were looking for a receipt for one, so they could defraud Kenwood, rather than the actual proccessor.

    I thought that at first but knowing how people can be on Freegle/Freecycle, I assumed that she probably wanted the item, not a receipt.

    Still, a receipt for a food "prosser"? With a "bade" no less?...Good luck with that!

    An offer this morning :

    "the printer was working then even after changing the ink it seems to have stopped"

    so basically they are saying "it was working at some point in the past, but is now broken" :)

    Somebody on Bolton Freegle yesterday (a re-ask) wanted 12ft of brown kitchen work surface. Because everybody just happens to have 12ft of kitchen worktop kicking about doing nothing.

    actually - I had a green one.
    I gave it away on my Freegle group.

    Mind you I doubt that chaps going to get anything when he says "24 days and not had any offers."!! the cheek of it.

    Expecting an offer.:(
