  1. 1986 - 1987 Vintage Baby Walker Brick Trolley in very good condition for age. Each part dismantled, thoroughly cleaned and re-assembled. Complete with all original painted supplied wooden bricks. A few wear marks on the chromed axles.Trolley is wooden and the handle is red coated steel.
     
    Made in Great Britain. Probably MotherCare or Tri-ang but cant recall. Family heirloom. Bought for our child in 1986 - 1987. Since then it's been stored in a cupboard. We hoped to use it for grandchildren but it's not now needed.
     
    All the bricks are there. There is even an extra brick included that I made when we had thought we had mislaid one of them years ago - but we found it, so the original bricks are all complete.
     
    We'll be sorry to see it go.

  2. This very long ( 45 metre long ) cable reel was used for a mains hedge trimmer when we had a large garden -  we longer have that garden so it's no longer needed. 

    Steel tube frame with just a tiny amount of surface rust (on the bottom where it's subject to wear), plastic drum/reel and handle. 4 heat protected sockets. 13 amp plug and fuse.

  3. Mayfly, the actual fibre optic cable terminates in the Openreach box inside your house. The cable cannot have sharp bends in it - only gentle curves. You will have a copper cable with several strands ( Cat5 or Cat6) running from the Openreach termination box to the router. The phones plug into the router - you can have extension wires pretty much as long as you want.

  4. If it helps: We had a good experience with the installation of BT Fibre into the house. There is a plastic box on the wall outside into which the incoming cable runs. They then drilled a hole through our 225mm thick solid brick wall and fitted the final white plastic box (which needs a power supply) on the inside of the wall neatly covering the hole. Our own CAT5 cable runs to our own choice of positioning of the router.

    As it happens, I ran my own cable under the floor myself before they arrived, but it can be clipped to the skirting board  if you want.

    To save trouble, I'd do that and think about a neater wiring solution later at your own convenience,

  5. I needed a few heavy items moved to near Dover in Kent.

    I contacted Peter - 07427 271980 / VP Removals. He quoted a very reasonable price, was extremely helpful, punctual with his times and handled our furniture with respect and care. I don't think there is a better mover out there. Highly recommended.
