Thanks Liz:o))

l found another company, have their phone number and they have a forum. Checked the link you gave me, very interesting:o)

l can quite understand you trying not to look at Freecyle etc, so tempting:o) but great all the same.

l'm having a sort out now, l have an old trolley, it was my m i l and we have no room for it now, Vic's quite happy it goes, also some bathroom tiles, approx 120 that l was given for my mosaicing, have so many others, these might be useful to someone!

MaxiMary....good on yeh:o))

I will get at the footie table and give it to G., it will be one less thing in the house and he can keep it or sell it, it is his after all.
I am trying to keep off gumtree and freecycle for the mo as I kept seeing things I wanted, and have two outlets for jumble and books, the domestic violence group are opening a charity shop but before that they are doing a boot sale stall so want things to sell and also the hedgehog rescue people need things to sell at a jumble sale so must go through some of my clothes and distribute to whereever they will be best used

Keep up the good work Mary, I am working on newspapers but it's slow going.

Enjoy the table Jude, is it one that has to have coins put in?

Hey Liz, bet you could sell the footie table on eBay or Gumtree for some extra cash!
I have been 'clearing' all day, still at it - thrown out probably half my clothes, which had made the cupboard so full I couldn't find anything. Another 4 big bags for Freecycle. They may all become rags with the age of some of them!! LOL.
I LOVE Freecycle, got an electric treadmill for my daughter last week, has to be worth a few hundred, a generous gift from a stranger. Mind you I also give away many items each year. One day I'll be organised.

have a look on here Jude, all about your table ?

Lizx

My son has one actually, we got it off friends when he was young so it's still in my house in the spare room, maybe I could get it for him to have at his flat, I bet he has forgotten it's there.

Have fun when you get yours fixed up

Me again:~)

l have my table football game:o)) its beautiful, if you can call such a thing beautiful.
We have'nt put it together yet, it needs abit of attenion underneath and then a good clean and its legs put back on.
If someone wants something to do, see if you can find the old company that made it:

Its called.....Brighouse Table Football co. The phone number is Brighouse Yorkshire 78511(5 lines) not in use now though.

Its all printed on the pitch and it says "Especially made for".
l've had a quick look, no luck:o(

Hi Jude,

I picked up a free garden shredder for o.h. last week, and have had several things off there, earlier this evening I got two brand new carousel thingies that go inside kitchen units, the chap had not got round to fitting them. I have some mesh ones at my house that I bought in 1979 and I took them out of my old kitchen when I moved in 1987 and had them installed in the new kitchen at my house. These ones are solid plastic so things can't fall through the gaps so they are going inside the top cupboards of my wardrobes so I can put lots of small items in there and they will be easily accessible, as long as I use the small stepstool that I keep just inside one wardrobe for reaching the top shelves. I might try putting them inside the wardrobes above the hanging rail so I can put make up and belts etc in

It's amazing the things people give away but it often irks me that people ask for things without even a please

Have fun with the footie table

Lizxx
