    When renting an apartment while on a J1 visa years ago in the US we found a reasonably sizable stash of porno mags in the basement.

    Yeah
    Replace it with a movie poster and say you got bored of it and tossed it in a skip. Go for it, you would be then be an art thief, which there is a kind of romance to.

    An unexploded World War 2 grenade. Probably one of the coolest things a seven year old boy could ever lay his hands upon

    That brings back a memory.Years ago I was rewiring a house with another electrician ,when we found what appeared to be a hand grenade .

    My workmate while standing beside me, picked up the grenade , pulled the pin, examined it and placed the grenade without the pin on a table where we were working.

    The hairs still stand up on the back of my neck, when I think about it.


    obviously it didn,t explode

    I found a huge tank. It was full of water too.

    The big gun at the front didn't work anymore though.
