Fire up the chinook!
More free manc depot stuff….
Random size/shape foam. 300mm deep. Perfect for home wall. All sat outside by the skip. First come first served
Damn, I was looking at that last night wondering what would happen to it. My van is now in Wales until Tuesday

Does anyone want a PlusNet Hub One router?

They emailed me yesterday (about 1yr after my contract ended) offering a freepost return label for refurbishment/recycling but I thought I'd offer it to UKBers first. Where I am home broadband is best served via 4G (40mbps down rather than the 1mbps PlusNet managed via the landline!) so it's no use even as backup and I have another that I can use as an AP if needs be.

Along these lines, I have some foam that Ste gifted me for my home wall before Nat decreed she wanted it matting properly (given my history). It's a standard thick blue gym mat. The cover isn't in good condition but the foam is good for home board type situations. Available for pick-up in Lancs, near Widdop. If I leave it too long I'll no doubt end up with a mouse moving in.

Teaboy is taking this on Sat.

This is still available (and for reference does NOT fit in a T5 featuring a side kitchen).

3m x 1.5m x 300mm thk.

funnily enough I have the same mat under my board and had similar issue with it not fitting in a T5 and side kitchen.  ::)

Always worth trusting an engineer, who deals in volumes etc on a daily basis, than your own hunches based on nothing more than "How big can a gym mat be?"

All I came away with was board envy. Sorry Paul https://ukbouldering.com/board/Smileys/ukbCustom/blush.gif

I have a spare one of these, if anyone wants it. The foam in the grips has split a bit, so I wrap them in tape, but it's perfectly functional.

Cantilever type pull up bar:

I'm in Nether Edge, Sheffield.

I picked up a brand new one from the recycling skips at Tesco ;)

PM me, or reply here.
Cheers, Dave.

If you fail to Freecycle them PlusNet got in touch out of the blue offering to recycle my hub (Freeport). I'd imagine you can do similar easily enough through BT etc.

I'd take this if I could figure out a way of getting it to Scotland. Only just across the border but it's probably not worth a dedicated trip just to pick it up. Can you send me a whatsapp with your exact location and I'll check?

I don't seem to have your number these days. Either drop me a PM or my number hasn't changed in at least a decade. For planning I'm a few miles from Widdop crag back towards Colne.

Mark that's great. I'll give you a call now. Just listening to the footy on the radio you gave me  :2thumbsup:

Edit.
That's the radio that Remus gave me. Ha ha. Thank you Remus :thumbsup: Sorry, you gave me the Flymo for my postage stamp of grass ;)

Great to pass this on.

We’re having our bathroom redone this week, so there’s a few fixtures going if they’re any use to anyone. Free-standing bath with chrome mixer tap and shower head plus a pedestal sink. Both in decent condition. They would need collecting from Sheffield S10. On Gumtree if you want a look at photos.

I’d give UKB folks priority if you message on here, although keen to get rid of them reasonably quickly so there’s space for all the new stuff when that gets delivered.

Small metolius bouldering mat.
Lifted off a skip on our street.
Original first generation so very old. Foam is completely shot but cover and straps all look good. It's 85 X 70 cm when unfolded so on the small side. Foam is 7cm thick but needs replacing.
Suitable for a mini wads up coming font trip maybe or as an extra gap filler for those highballs. 

Collection from Sharrow Sheffield or can drop around Sheffield if I'm out and about.

1. Three cast-iron single bed frames. Ex-hospital (pre-1970s). Two are 79cm wide (narrow single), one is 91cm wide. Disassembles into three parts for transport. Springs a bit saggy, recommend a board under a mattress. Need a couple of coats of paint but very solid and robust, will be going strong when anything from IKEA will have been landfill for decades.

2. Large sheet of MDF (155cm x 183cm x 2.5cm; ~50kg). Has been used as a mattress support with the two single bed frames.

Collection from N. London, you'll need a decent sized vehicle.

Donation to bolt fund would be appreciated.

The wilds of Surrey - we do have the postal service though, so other options are possible :)

I’d be keen for Onsight if it’s not already gone. I think I live close enough to Cheque (if you still live up Lodge Moor way?) that you could keep it simple and send them together.
