Goods free to a good home

December 19th, 2009 | Author: Debbie

We have some long stakes, 4 old steel wheels which could be decorative or somebody may want to grow things through them (not for cycling….not sure if they would be safe) and an old green Wheely bin (240L) which is in need of TLC as it has a leak in it. Perhaps it could be used as a compost bin. Also there is a semicircle of corrugated iron about a metre and a half in height. Please send an email to Ailed@rocketmail.com as soon as possible if you’re interested. The wheels and iron will go out to hard rubbish on monday morning.
