    Morning all! :)

    LMAO, always happy to corrupt, Nyla!

    Got a goodun on ours this morning...must be summer or the person has moved very recently...I seem to recall this request on this thread before?


    That would be a FULL multigym then..not fussy!

    Alternatively, get an allotment and do some digging....works wonders!

    Yep - I posted about the wanted ad on one of my groups recently, for a multigym. Wonder if its the same person?

    BTW I love the cheeky wanteds when they ask for an item which we may all have spare "just lying around". I have visions of peoples houses throughout the country with laptops, mobiles, cookers, multigyms, video cameras, boats, cars etc lying around with people tip-toeing over them.

    :rotfl:
    When I've posted 'offered' ads, the ones that write back saying 'I'll take it off your hands' always amuse me. There's never a 'please' anywhere in those sort of replies. I just want to write back and say 'well actually, no you won't'.

    HI All. I am looking for a few items, please let me know if you can
    help.

    1/ Wardrobe – wanted for me, my wife has nearly filled the double
    wardrobe of her clothes – I keep telling her she's spoilt!

    2/ Motor bike – newly passed DAC , I am looking for a starter bike.
    If it is an OK condition, maybe just needs putting it through a
    service/mot and taxing – I could justify that to the Mrs.

    3/ Exercise Step. – No that's not for me – I am of a larger size, and
    am happy.

    4/ `Hat' the top part that goes on the garden heaters – This is for
    my buddy at work, his blew over and is now all bent out of shape.

    5/ a sense of humour, I could do with one as I am sure you have noted
    above.

    Thanks in advance.

    Cheeky beggar !!! 'desperate' indeed :rolleyes: He should try Ebay or a good old fashioned shop (where you have to give money for an item) or post a wanted ad. in the local paper!

    Please stop using the word "of" when you actually mean "have" - it's damned annoying :mad:

    Hi Nyla1979,
    it's the sort of thread were you just HAVE to stick your nose in from time to time just in case there has been a good 'wanted' posted, must admit though the cheeky ones dont seem so frequent.

    any freecycle mods care to throw in any good ones that they have turned down, pretty please.
