    Dear Freecyclers,
    I have had numerous complaints recently over the
    amount of unsuitable 'Wanted' ads.
    Please could you think before requesting an item, if it is of obvious
    value or unlikely to be landfilled then perhaps you could look in the
    local paper or supermarket noticeboards first.
    emailed last night by mod, odd thing is I haven't seen many wanted posts recently and none that seemed unsuitable on this site.

    Our freecycle has been a little dull lately :(

    Only one person with no manners:
    WANTED: Keep fit and exercise equipment
    XXXXXXXX
    Ian

    and this lovely one:
    My name is XXXXXXXXX. I recently had a premature baby and spent
    some time on XXXXXXX Ward, XXXXXXXX Hospital. Because my
    XXXXX was premature, she had to be fed by tube and the only way I
    could get breast milk to her was to express every three hours using
    an electric breast pump.

    The ward has 2 of these pumps, and normally around 8 mums needing to
    use them, which makes a stressful time even more so.

    I promised I would raise funds to buy a new breast pump. They cost
    around £600. I have so far raised £121 from selling donated items at
    a car boot sale, and have two offers of £100 each from local womens'
    groups. I have also had donations from Tesco and M&S in XXXXXX.

    If anyone feels they would like to donate any items, clothes up to 4
    years, or any baby equipment, you would not only be recycling your
    unwanted items to just one person, but also helping many more mums
    who spend time on XXXXXXX Ward.

    I live in XXXXXXXX but am willing to collect from almost anywhere to
    help move my fundraising forwards.

    Feel free to email me if you want any more information.

    Congrats to Morty too :)

    No please ? :confused:

    the cheek is quite staggering isn't it.

    Also if he/she can afford to run a blackberry (the subscription is not cheap , and many are generally supplied to senior management by commercial companies) they can certainly afford to buy one

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

    Wanted - E Flat tenor horn
    I used to play in a brass band but due to unsociable working hours can
    no longer go. I would like my own instrument so that I can still play
    at home.

    :eek: Glad I don't live next door.......
