welovemarmite Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 Now having read this thread, was very disappointed to find that todays freecycle requests were rather dull. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlottechicken Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 After avidly reading this thread, I have re-joined my local freecycle and now get regular emails with a nicely concise list of latest postings. I have copied one below, I saw the offer but expected there to be a correction to the post, there wasn't (I have blanked out the username): Title TAKEN: child From F******o Date Fri, 20 Aug 2010 23:20:23 -0000 Location cotteridge Description This has now been taken. Thank you to everyone who has shown an interest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MammaT Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Have just been sent this request from my local freegle: If anyone has any old horny train bits track trains etc my two year old would be very grateful as his grandad is building him a track in his loft. Any donations would be greatly appreciated and played with for many more years Sounds a bit more exciting than the train sets my lot have had...

MammaT Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 And now this: electric cooker, fridge, washing machine, bed. New home starter requires all the basics so if anyone has any of the above also chest of drawers, wardrobe, tumble dryer etc, anything would be gratefully appreciated. Many thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluekarin Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 I thought that Karin wonder if they are all odd socks? It says 20/30 pairs, so maybe someone might practise darning with a darning mushroom and wear them. I prefer to think they are being made into toys......actually, come to think of it, that's not any better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 I can't imagine wanting someone else's socks *screws up face* while I am happy to darn and recycle our own socks, draw the line at doing it with a stranger's socks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lavenders_Blue Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 Yuk, this is making me squirm! 30 pairs of someone else's old socks would need to go through a REALLY HOT WASH before I would even consider going anywhere near them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
