    You've ever found in your attic? I found an old rocking horse,a load of LP's and an old sewing machine.

    Three carbon fibre fishing rods, five expensive spinning reels, a few dozen lures (brands like Rapala and still in their retail packs) as well as a couple of compartmentalised boxes with lots of other fishing gear. All worth several thousand euro. There was also a fishing licence and only two people with that name in the phone book. :)

    It turned out my attic was being used as a base by people who had broken into it and the stuff I found had been stolen from boats that had been broken into in a nearby marina. :)

    A German Reichsmark with a bullet hole through it. My Great Uncle fought in WW2, and it was in his things. Thought that was quite cool.

    OOOoh coincidentally, yesterday my friend found an original painting in the flat I rent that was worth 500 Euro before the Euro conversion (price was at the back of it in Pesatas). I wonder how much it's worth now....here's a photo...

    A house we rented in college had a panty-hoes dispenser in the attic. Not cool, but definitely old and... Interesting :P never knew such a thing existed!

    I found a gay, an atheist, someone who dislikes the catholic church and someone who says they think TG4 is the best national Tv station and someone who thinks Fianna fail ruined the country. They are all pretty cool these days:rolleyes:

    Oh and people who think breast feeding is acceptable in public

    Well she already got it for free so she'd have to be fairly stupid to do that.

    Well some meat head bought it in the first place so perhaps I'll find some other myopic moran who'll think it's, like, sooooo profound and classy.....


    Do you not like it though? I'm about to hang it up...

    Did you have to taste it to confirm it wasn't Lucozade?
