TORO SR4 Super Recycler Lawn Mower Self propelled pull start petrol lawnmower I bought this mower new a few years back. Now, we’ve downsized and no longer have a big lawn to cut so I’m selling the Toro mower. Recoil start / Pull start start 4 wheeled machine Self propelled Briggs and Stratton engine Aluminium deck 53cm cutting width, the aluminium deck offers the highest quality of cut. An aluminium deck is far superior to a steel deck as it does not corrode. There are height adjusting levers providing variable cutting height from 25-114mm. I have looked after it well, serviced it regularly and have given it a good clean and service especially for the sale. I stripped down the carburettor, the fuel jets and emulsification tube were cleaned with carburettor cleaner, blown through and gaskets replaced as necessary during rebuild. I drained the oil (whilst engine was hot), flushed and replaced with new oil of the correct type. The fuel tank was flushed before filling with fresh unleaded petrol. A new spark plug has been fitted. A new air filter has been fitted. I have cleaned and sharpened the cutting blade. The recoil starter has been functionality tested, the 3mm nylon starter rope was also checked. A nick in it could have failed at any time so I have repaired the rope. The self-drive gearbox and pulley system all appear to work correctly. The large capacity grass box has never been used and is included. Power and excellent performance is provided by the mower’s Briggs & Stratton 675 Series™ ReadyStart® engine. Its Sens-a-Speed™ variable speed Autodrive system is another important benefit, adapting automatically to your walking pace, and operating at speeds between zero and 4.7mph. As can be seen from the photographs the mower is in very good condition. Naturally, because it’s been used it does come with cosmetic, age related scratches and paint chips, that do not affect the operation of the mower. Please examine the photos. I can send plenty more. COLLECTION PLEASE Collection is possible from South End of Dulwich – Langton Rise SE22 / Wood Vale SE23 BUT DELIVERY IS POSSIBLE Delivery Possible by arrangement

A seamstress has retired and is selling a not much used Vintage Elna Supermatic Sewing Machine - Swiss Made. It dates from early 1970s I think. It comes complete with original metal storage case, instruction manual and several bits and pieces including various feet and cams. Unfortunately we can't find the foot pedal and mains electricity lead so we cannot test it. I did work when last used. Foot pedal and mains cable missing Horniman Area It's extremely heavy so delivery can be arranged after your inspection

I think the sub Post Office closed in 2014 - my photo is dated 2015. There's a plaque high up on the wall calling the parade - Moore Park Terrace. Many. many years ago there was betting shop in the extreme left end premises too. The garage sometime in 2014. -

It's a Supra C500 Key safe. PS The instructions say to not fix it to a rendered wall as it's not guaranteed to be secure. Instead fix it directly to brickwork. So fortunately, hacking off the render may give you enough room to get a blade into the gap to cut the 4 screws https://thekeysafecompany.freshdesk.com/support/solutions/articles/11000114715-supra-c500-pro-keysafe-installation-help

But it seems you do get a live-in cook / kitchen hand / helper with the second house 😀.

I will add my vote for Gdansk. Also, take to boat trip to the peninsula where WW2 broke out. The first WW2 action was here.
