    I love this thread and have been dying to find a gem to post on here!!

    On my group over the weekend:
    WANTED: Electric cooker, BMX bike, dvd player, kids guitar

    I would really appreciate if anyone is getting rid of a working electric cooker, I am really struggling without a cooker.

    My son is desperate for a BMX bike to ride back to school on! Any condition as he is willing to do it up.
    I am also after a small dvd player for my daughter.

    My youngest has ADHD and would LOVE a small kids guitar.

    ANY CONDITION welcome - only if you have them available!

    thanks so much in advance.

    The best bit was that this was then followed by a posted message on the email update saying:
    Re: WANTED Electric cooker, BMX bike, dvd player, kids guitar

    hi,
    I am interested in the electric cooker. Please let me know when can I come and collect it.

    Err heaven help you when their kittens arrive and you have a houseful because you didn't have the cash to get them spayed !

    It's amazing how these things happen and cost money, who'd have thought it?

    I've got two beautiful children and they are costing me a fortune:

    I wouldn't surprise me in a few weeks the same person will be freecycling the actual kittens. We have lots of kittens, dogs, fish and chickens on ours.

    Yahoo mail finally let me back in so I listed a large collection mentioned i just wanted it gone and didn't care if it got car booted and someone gave me a time this afternoon that they could collect which suited me so i said fine. Guess what, yet another no show, now where's the local land fill?

    I don't know why I waste my time on freegle, i must have masochistic tendencies.
