i am all a tizz, put a wanted on freecycle for a saddle to start Baz in, never thought i would get a reply, but only 2hours later i have, it's new just wrong size for her horse, trying not to get too excited incase don't fit but wow.
Just in case you don't know what freecyle is its a web place where people can offer and request items all are free, it's about recycling and keeping things out of the land fill. I have given loads including bikes,hifi,clothes and had some super items in return. Google freecycle

That sounds quite good.... so, do you swap things with the other party or just give them away?
