On topic part:

We are moving house and have too much to list so, weather permitting, on Saturday 14th July at 3.00PM we will be laying out a tarpaulin on our front lawn at xx xxxxxxx Road. lots of small items. Pop in for a look if you are passing.

Well that's another way of doing things :T

Please does anyone have a Fibre Glass moulded waterfall for a pond,
this is for hubbys latest project.

Willing to travel Thankyou

Hmmm.... trying to work out what a moulded waterfall is? Isn't a waterfall made of water? :rolleyes: Does she mean the thingy that is a sort of liner that the water trickles down? (Can't you tell that I'm a gardener *not*)

Wanted bumbo seat *** area, will collect asap

OK, so what's a bumbo?

I know its a long shot, but I was wondering if anyone had some leftover
helium gas. I need enough to fill approx 15 small balloons for my son's
party this sunday 15th July. My party budget has gone well over and I
just thought I'd post to see if anyone had any left they did not need
anymore? Thankyou for your time and kind regards ...

Hmm.... I'll check under my bed Who has helium [strike]lying[/strike] floating around?

I have just taken on another rabbit but my spare hutch has fallen to
bits. If anyone has an outdoor hutch please could you let me know, I
can collect from any area. Thanks

I daren't pass any comment :shhh: :silenced: - do hope though that bunny is safe from predators (animal and human)

Some great offereds on the groups today - there are a lot of generous folk around

This one just came into one of my groups:


Does anyone have an earth and ware casserole dish and a strictly stainless steel only frying pan without the coating as teflon can be poisonous to my bird!

I guess they're not referring to the pan-fried chicken then:D

Three from my local FC today:

Wanted: Leather suite in resonably good condition preferably. Any colour except cream, black or green.
No 'please' and not too fussy either.

Wanted please any broken gold.
That's all they said!


And then there's this one;

Wanted dog crate/cage. My 4 month old terrier has learnt how to get through the cat flap, so shutting him in the kitchen when I go out doesn't work anymore. He is at that stage where they like to chew anything, so if anyone has a suitable crate I would be really grateful.

I'm worried about this poor little pup. For how long does she/he intend to leave him locked up in a 'crate'?

Offered

Pay as you go o2 simcard. Must be activated by 23rd April 2008.
Top up between £10-14 per month for 300 free text, between £15-29 500
free texts. Top up £30 or more for 1000 free texts. Ideal for
teenagers.

Interesting one. Is it really a freecycle freebie since there'll be a cost involved to get the free texts? I seem to remember quite a debate on the Freebies forum as to whether this really is a 'freebie' or not.

I'd certainly agree about the dog crate/cage :mad: It's not that difficult surely to alter the catflap so that its unusable? Worries me to think of a young pup not being able to get a drink etc.

The 'no manners' points: raised this with the Mods on one of my freecycle groups. Got a very nice response, and they've put out a post to remind people about etiquette/manners :T

Dear All
I have a 30p money off coupon for any Slim-fast product valid until
22nd August 2007.
This was picked up in Boots yesterday. (Not sure if it is only Boots
that it has to be given into).
I would be more than happy to post.
Please let me know if you would like it.

How many people would pay 34p to post a 30p voucher?
