Boxes for free

    We have literally a shed load of cardboard boxes that were bought ahead of the house move, now going for free if anyone wants them. Feel free to take a small selection, or the whole full house move bulk. They'll be hitting the re-cycling collection on Wednesday otherwise.

    Thanks.

    I'd be happy to take them off your hands. My sister is moving soon and needs all the boxes she can get! When would be the best time to collect them?

    Thanks

    I'm afraid they've now all gone. Anyone else got some boxes to spare?

    Hi LittleHerbert,

    I need about 4 boxes to pack up some books, could you provide any or all? Do books make for a good home? I am not sure how to get in contact now.  Do we ask Jason to put us in touch? Jason, is that what we do - I assume you read everything.

    LittleHerbert, if you have any left after Christiane has had four of them I'm going to be needing some too so would be happy to take them off your hands.

    @Mike if it's a rubbish home then you can put the rubbish in the boxes- duh!

    @Christiane and @Simon they're boxes from our house move so there's plenty to go around. Just send me a message and we'll arrange something.

    Thank you, Simon.  Sorry, a bit dim on this front.  I sent LittleHerbert a message but do not know how to access a reply.

    Hi Christiane I haven't actually received a message but try again, then when I reply if you go to the top of the page you will see discussions, inbox and your own profile. 
    When you have a message 'inbox' will have a little number 1 next to it.
    i love modern technology!

    Perhaps I am getting this wrong, LittleHerbert, but I have clicked on your name and then written you a message in the Add Comment box on the page that comes up under your name.  There are already two messages from me on that page.  What am I doing wrong?

    I don't think it's you-it doesn't seem to be working for me either.
    You can both contact me on 07527115333 if that's easier :)
