    What is it about rabbit related items on my local freecycle:confused:

    I have just been given a rabbit hutch that is just under 3ft in length. I was told it was a big one and it was left outside my back gate while i was out today. This is the only reason why i want it to go is it's to small for me!

    I know the cost of housing is ridiculous but still........:p


    and another one vying for the Sybil Fawlty cup for stating the b*****ing obvious....

    Bed is fine, we have been sleeping on it,

    well, that's a relief I should imagine.....although judging by the recent wanteds for trampolines......:eek:

    Offered - boys socks

    I have 13 pairs of boys' socks suitable for age 1 - 2 years. They are in good condition, most are cosy winter socks (good for under boots) and a few other pairs of thinner ones. - erm I personally just think sox are one of those things you don't pass on, as they are undies to me. It's like wearing someone elses knickers. Spare the thought!


    Wanted - various

    Hello, i have tried before to see if anyone has a dishwasher they don't
    want , someone was giving one away , i emailed but lost out , so I'm
    gonna try my luck again, also looking for a fireside rug and a CD player
    for a car , if u have these items and no longer need them please email
    me, i can pick them up, - can't see the correlation between a dishwasher, a cd player and a rug can anyone else? Come to think of it was it a request for a dishwasher or were they just saying they missed out on one ?

    PS
    going to dig up the rowan trees, pot them and post them (note not literally), thanks Pam. Will let you know how I get on when I get round to it.

    Just had this on our FC group:
    Hi, really need table with six chairs as ours only has four( all
    broken to varying degrees!)Now have 3 kids and one has to wait for
    dinner. Will collect within the X.X. area.

    I have a 4 seater dining table and 3 kids, but I don't make one of them watch us eat and then serve them afterwards :rolleyes:

    This sort of post really winds me up. If she's so bothered, then she should feed her kids first, and eat her own meal later :mad: - not that I believe her reason for this 'wanted'. I've seen plenty of offers of tables and chairs in my groups, so why the need to say this?

    Hmph.... off to bed

    They're all out round here tonight:
    laptop in working order wanted
    That's it, the whole message. No please, no thank you :mad:

    With you on the last one Pam, not entirely sure I believe her, but what a terrible thing to write!

    Nothing new on my groups - no new posts since yesterday evening. Everyone is on moderation and always has been, so no doubt a rush of posts later on today. I think they could do with some more moderators - not much point me applying as I've often complained about the long shopping lists people post, and requests for luxury items such as plasma tv's :rolleyes:
