Just saw this on Bristol freecycle: There are dozens of large plastic plant pots left outside a house on Ash Road (junction with Oak Road) - the house was raided by the police last week & they took the crop(!) but left stacks of them on the forecourt - might be of use to someone for the garden?
2/3 full jar of peanut butter with a use-by date in two weeks time posted yesterday on Lambeth freecycle.
I had two people interested in a broken playstation 2. Two people. The one who collected it was extremely grateful. He was going to use it to pump electronic music signals though for some art project.
Bit of a bump here but this request on my local network is a bit cheeky! Mind you I quite fancy upgrading my i-pod so... "i am looking for an iphone or ipod touch because i want to upgrade from my ipod nano thanks"
OFFER: Floppy drive cable akasa45 cm floppy drive round cable in box... OFFER: E45 moisturising lotion Almost full 500ml bottle of E45 Moisturising Lotion, with pump action. It just doesn't suit my skin!
My only ever freecycle win was 200 pairs of disposable contact lenses, in my exact prescrition. What were the chances of that? Anyway, I was really really pleased. The owner had had laser eye surgery therefore didn't need them anymore.
I trecked across town to an utterly rude woman's house who looked at me like I was going to rape her and her dog to pick up the food processor I had asked for. She had told me on the phone it was old, heavy and had no dough hook. I told her when I was in her kitchen trying to lift it, it was just for chopping veg. She looked at me like I was an idiot and said, 'Oh, there's no blades I chucked them a while ago.' Being polite and English, spent an hour thanking her and trying to carry it home before putting it out for the binmen.
My dad would jump on this if it was local, and he had internet, a computer, and knew how to use them.
