2009-06-21 Play Kitchen

This weirdly abstract play kitchen was sitting by the side of the road so we brought it home and clean it up. It seems to serve the purpose of entertaining and distracting certain offspring with reasonable efficiency, so it gets to stay. It actually showed up 2 weeks ago but we forgot to list it then, the horror!

Large backlog of bikes in the background. We should probably get building and fixing though come to look at it two of those became parts since this picture was taken and some of those parts are already back on fixed up bikes.

2009-06-21 Pack And Play

This Graco Pack and Play is not the cleanest but is fully functional and good for offspring imprisionment. Better still, good for small dogs.

2009-06-21 Mountain Bike

This mountain bike has been painted over with an overspray-mungous sloppy black by its (presumably) angst ridden teenage owner. Isn't there a pill for that now amongst the plethora of elective offspring medications? Anyway, we suspect it looks better this way (in a Mad Max sense, not in the way the previous owner imagined) than before so we fixed it up a little and it shall be made available. Just needs a chain.

2009-06-21 Maclaren Volo

This Maclaren Volo pushchair is in fine shape and has a handy dandy hood. It was picked up a week or so ago for us by a friendly chap and it is already sold off to a new home via the list of craig.

It does have front wheels and such, but I gave you a cropped pic to show the nice colourful parts of it in better details. With lots of aliasing stuff on the mesh.

2009-06-21 Calphalon Pans

We found a large cardboard box with various cookware in it, including these and other Calphalon pans. The large flat one is good to use but the others may demand some warranty work.

2009-06-20 Trek 220

This Trek 220 is in almost new condition and seems to be targeted at juvenile females. For a junky "made in china" kids' bike it is pretty fancy. Whatever the original target market, a quick check over and we will try to find a new home for it.

2009-06-20 Scotts Mower

This push lawn mower seems in fine shape though it needs the blade setting. It has a wide cut and we will be giving it to certain friends as part of our carbon neutral lawn mower distribution program. Other acquaintances may also want this...

2009-06-20 Ross Compact

This Ross Compact bike is a bit strange, it has a shimano 3-speed gear hub and a strange wavy frame. It is in excellent condition though and should be fine for a hipster type, once we make it available to them.

Note that what we mean by strange in this context is ugly and crap. This intended market for this of course will see it as quirky and cool.

2009-06-20 Peg Perego Seat

yet another Peg Perego baby seat. This one is a little old and maybe a little beat up but it will be inspected carefully and disposed of accordingly.

2009-06-20 Offspring Rucksack

This Tough Traveller offspring rucksack seems to be all present and correct. The list of craig has historically been an excellent disposal outlet for these and hopefully that will continue. They have similar qualities to the bike seats, people think they will do so much cool outdoor stuff with their kids so buy them but never really use them. This ensures both our supply and demand.
