There was a message posted today on the freecycle board, 3 give-away ducks 8 wks old, I answered straight away and when I went round to collect them, there was another duck that was going to be given away as well, So I scored it as well, all of them are Welsh Harlequins, 1 is 1yr old (duck) and the others are 8 wks (2 ducks and 1 drake)

So far from freecycle, we have 2 dogs, 4 ducks, a heap of chickens and assorted other odds and ends

EB,

Go to http://www.freecycle.org . Dont use the au site as ,you are right ,blank white page!
Type in your suburb and dont forget to type western australia after it!! I joined up a few days ago but my status says still waiting for approval so cant do bugger all yet.
I think you have to contact moderator to give them a prod :dunno:

I gave up on it because it required joining Yahoo groups and I have to stop joining things that send me more crap mail..

Had the same thought but I signed up earlier this year using a yahoo mail account that I only use for freecycle. That way they only send themselves crap. I don't use the account for anything else. Freecycle is also a great way of getting rid of unwanted crap.

Guess I'll just have to miss out then... I used to have a yahoo email account at one stage but can't remember the details, also used to have a hotmail, I have a gmail, and a mail.com, and an earthling.net and iinet, on and on it goes.. Now I have cut most of them out and can't be bothered ever having more accounts...

I'll have to stick to Quokka free section....
