    This mornings list of 'wanted' adds:

    I need an electronic drum kit if anyone is getting rid of one. - 'Need'? Does your life depend on it? 'Would like' surely...

    Has anyone got a dog kennel they no longer need please. I havnt got much shade in my garden and want somewhere for my puppy to go in if shes gets too hot - what about letting the dog indoors in a cool space? Kennels in the sun get hot too I would think

    Hypermobility Syndrome (and all it's components) is no laughing matter and I can totally relate to that young woman. Pregnancy worsens HMS symptons so cut her some slack,

    But I've heard lots of complaints about the Qunny Buzz, and I've seen how cumbersome they are, and that they tend to fall down the gap getting off buses etc.

    That's the last pram someone with weak joints should want to push around, oh and I have Hypermobility too! (it doesn't cause me pain like the freecycle lady but my joints are floppy and a bit feeble sometimes) and I wouldn't touch the Quinny.
    Mum of several with a twisted sense of humour and a laundry obsession :o:o

    Why all the carping about what is requested and offered?

    I've been using freecycle for a while, giving away stuff that wouldn't sell for much, or would just be too much hassle (a couple of computers, 21" monitor, motorcycle oversuit) and collected a couple of bits and bobs (including a computer hard drive from a women, that 'belonged to her son' which had a large collection of gay !!!!!! on it. Would have loved to have heard the conversation when he came home for the holidays...)

    Sure, some people take the mickey, but what is junk/waste to one, can be just what is needed for someone else.

    Was the gay !!!!!! included in the advert? I mean, is that what swung it for you?
