Shame37 pairs of knickers down the back of the radiator in the front bedroom when I started decorating the house we'd just moved into - all clean btw
You had a smell didn't you?They had apparently been washed by the previous lady of the house and hung over the radiator to dry
You had a smell didn't you?
Of every pair
Every tool that was used to fit the kitchen in our house before we bought it, behind the kick boards of the old kitchen when I ripped it out. Drills, screwdrivers saws the lot.
That house was mint. Except when it started to fall down, like.Once owned a fifteenth century house - sounds grand, it wasn’t: small but very special. Anyhoo had to replace part of an original wall (all like for like listed building stuff, all done the original way), and when the wall came out I found six oyster shells neatly stacked up. We reckoned after a lot of debate it was the lunch of a medieval chippy.
Aye. Happy days.That house was mint. Except when it started to fall down, like.
Nice find that.Came across an old newspaper more than a hundred yrs old with reports about the Alaskan Gold Rush.
Still have it somewhere.
About as old as his actOnce owned a fifteenth century house - sounds grand, it wasn’t: small but very special.

I bet they were blind as well.My moggie caught three mice one night. Nothing unusual with that, except they were all different sizes and he'd arranged them in ascending order of size next to his food bowl.
Not especially odd, but just after moving into our run down home, i lifted the ground floor boards. Previous bloke, i think, had decided not to hire a skip when he'd done work to the house. Everything had been stuffed under the joists. Bricks,curtains,old half used bags of cement,curtain rails,an old yard door,an old ornate lamp shade and all sorts of crap. Space was completely full, no air space either so was riddled with dry rot. Had to rip all downstairs floors out.
Related to OP topic, through the last years i was fitting kitchens, maybe 15 years, on many occasions i've left a piece of paper,timber or plasterboard under some panel or plinth, with "Alan Shearer is a wanker" written on it. I usually signed and dated them.
My mate used to write football predictions on the other side of the plasterboard when tacking walls or ceilings. Thing was they were always predictions that had already happened. He'd just date his predictions to about ten years earlier. IE: "I riffraffs marra on this day 12/11/2005 hereby predict that by the year 2025 Leicester City will win be champions of England".
