Just 15 of the most unhinged items listed on Meadows Share
Anyone interested in some hay?
Louisa McDanielWhat is the Edinburgh Meadows Share Facebook group, if not a microcosm of Edinburgh itself? A beloved online forum where citizens come together to help one another, generously dole out belongings free of charge, and sometimes (when we’re lucky) post some of the most bizarre things I’ve ever seen on the internet.
There’s nothing I love more than other people’s business, so I’m not ashamed to admit I spent a fairly good amount of time scrolling through the Meadows Share and Meadows Chat groups looking for entertainment.
So please enjoy this collection of some of the most unhinged posts shared on the group.
