If anyone is looking for bulk items to stock their own shop, or market stall, or just looking for wooden items, I have breadboards, baskets, rolling pins, crates, a bbq chair, hanging and free standing bird feeders, breadboard/tech device stands, decorations etc, please let me know. I’ll open up my garage this weekend for viewing and offers.
I also have lamps and furniture, and electronic RC toys
I desperately need to have a clear out. And, like everyone else, some money for Christmas.

Maybe I have the Christmas present you are looking for.

I’ll post details closer to the weekend. Meanwhile, if you are looking for anything specific, let me know. We can arrange a private viewing.
