    Hi there,
    I have been trying to get hold of a silver under counter fridge,
    washing machine & dishwasher on my own local group. However not any
    luck yet. Just wondering if anyone within the central group can help.
    Needed because doing up our kitchen and fridge freezer has packed up.
    Items will need to be working as we have got a baby due within the next
    5 months so hygiene is important. Can collect from anywhere. Many
    thanks in advance

    so had they been trying to use the freezer section as a washing machine and dishwasher? no wonder it packed up

    :eek: Is this a posting from your freecycle group Dobbie?!:confused:

    ...Central group? Wasn't aware there was one, aren't they all local.

    I can't help feeling the person is being a little fussy about MUST have a silver ones (Does the colour affect the functionality?) and terribly unfortunate that all 3 have packed up at the same time! :eek:

    I have a baby due in 4 weeks but I wouldn't dream of asking for all 3 things at the same time, it's just greedy.

    And a mortgage in a pear tree :D

    coloured ones cost more therefore work better

    ask for the dish washer and when you get an offer tell then you'll have the rest when you turn up. they will be so gobsmacked they wont be able to move and that gives you about 10 minutes to nick the lot and scram

    Must be something in the water. From my group today:
    hi.... does anyone have a dishwasher in working order they don't want
    as mine has run it's course! Thanx
    At least they're not fussy about the colour
    HELLO ALL FREECYCLER

    IS THERE ANYBODY OUT THERE WHO DOES NOT WANT THEIR DARK WOOD CIRCULAR
    OR OVAL (DINING) TABLE AND CHAIRS?

    I PASSED MY 7FT FARM HOUSE TABLE AND 8 CHAIRS RECENTLY TO ANOTHER
    FREECYCLER, AS WE HAVE NOW ONLY A SMALL DINING ROOM . MY HUSBAND IS NOW
    COMPLAINING ALL THE TIMES BECAUSE WE HAVE TO HAVE DINNER ON OUR LAPS.

    I've found an absolute cracker on my local site... a mother of 3 wants to know if anyone will lend her their car next week, as hers has 'broken' and she doesn't want to let her kids down. Her insurance covers her to drive anything.

    Wonder if she will get any replies?!?!

    Quality thread

    Have a couple of corkers here ;)
    Does anyone have a basic CCTV monitor that they no longer use - nothing
    special needed, just a basic one will suffice as it will only be used in a
    cupboard?

    I can collect.

    Thanks

    and
    I'm looking for Freddie Mercury The Solo Collection 10CD (not 3CD)
    set.

    Both from Freecycle wirral :D

    Has anyone any Blue Paint i can have please, in a tin or in spray, to
    cover 4 calipers?

    Not pale or off white Blue by name...Needs to be a recognised Blue to
    look at.

    Ideally would be Car paint, but any metal paint will do.
    GONE ENGLAND
