I have a rowing machine that I'd like to pass on to an upcycle charity so that a health-challenged person can benefit from some static, indoor exercise.

I've used it throughout the pandemic and apart from drive belt and a wiring repair, it works fine. Spanner and instructions included.

Thanks.

i thought  BHF had stopped doing collections. We had them regularly to collect items after a Give and Take Event but they informed us that since Covid they do not offer this sservice.

They do collect actually and there's a form to complete - but they insist that whatever you're passing on needs to be in a resellable condition so I won't send it on this occasion. https://www.bhf.org.uk/shop/donating-goods/book-furniture-collection-near-me

    • Update - any ‘reviews’ of EE broadband would be useful as my phone account is with them so I may be able to bargain…
    • hi Herrpaul Only just saw your message - is your skip still there? 
    • I'll be having my second visit to part of the country where the lampposts are festooned with flags of St George and the Union flag.  I'm finding it uncomfortable. This is directly related to the Epping protest/far right groups. There is plenty of discussion on our rights to fly the flag and be proud of our nation.  Slogans such as 'we got rid of Adolf, now we need to get rid of Abdul', do not give me pride in some of my fellow country people. There is much talk about communities that are 'left behind', I expect that they have more fear from AI in taking their jobs. Yet some of the pretty parts of Essex I cycled through were not left behind.  And I expect had little experience of other cultures beyond the local takeaway.  There are 11 million people born abroad legally living and most working in this country.  Many providing vital high skilled services, as well as care and other jobs We all know that governments need to get on top of numbers arriving seeking asylum through irregular means.  Around half will be granted asylum https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/immigration-system-statistics-year-ending-march-2025/how-many-people-are-granted-asylum-in-the-uk   The numbers are far lower than the 11 million above, There are 100,000s of potential sexual harassment cases every year. This is wrong, and whilst in my life I've seen generally greater respect between the genders there is a long way to go.  https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/crimeandjustice/bulletins/experiencesofharassmentinenglandandwales/december2023 But the reaction to one court case is frightening.   I wake up each morning to find out more deaths in Gaza and Ukraine (and other places currently considered less newsworthy).  And more environmental disasters.  That's what keeps me up at night.  Ironically globally insecurities, rising temperatures and floods/droughts will mean even more want to come to 'safe' refuges.   The flag flying during the 2012 Olympics when there was genuine pride is very different to now.
