FREE swing set

[Barbara]

Yep, for free - we just want it gone so if there is anyone in Vic that is happy to travel to Melton to disassemble it & pick it up - it's your's.

I have asked around a few friends and no-one has come back to me yet so it's first in first served but we want it gone asap.

A bit of background - We have had it for 10 years & it is still in really good condition. The yellow parts of it (seats etc) are stamped 'replace July 2000' but they are all still in good condition and do not look brittle or anything like that (except for the see-saw part, but that is only showing signs of age - see pic below).

Also, the dogs (okay, it was Murphy but he will never own up to it) chewed the foot rests on the see-saw. They are still there, but just a bit frazzled :Hehe: There is a pic below of those as well.

As you can see, our backyard needs a bit of TLC due to water restrictions a year ago so we are trying to clear it out so we can start again.

Anyway, here are some pics:

I have got more pics but only on different angles.

Just PM me if you are interested or it will end up at the tip :)

Well darn I wished I lived near you. I've been thinking about getting some swings to keep the kids busy but don't want to pay full price. They are so expensive these days. Have to go back to checking the loacl papers.

That's a pity - no other takers?

Oh well, I might try the school newsletter this week :)

It's a shame to have to throw it out but the boys just don't use it anymore.

Hey Barbara, try the school newletter, or maybe ask if local pre-schools/child care centres have notice boards or newsletters for parents. Also, Daily Telegraph (our equivalent of your Herald Sun) has a Weekend Trader where you can put in free ads for items under a certain amount (so, free would be fine), maybe check that out? Or your local free newspaper, if you have one.
