Hidden TreasureMy landlord had some builders in to remove a staircase in an outbuilding when a rusty biscuit tin fell out from under the woodwork.
What wonders were in this hidden treasure box? Two live hand grenades and 40 rounds of ammunition. From WW2. I've never seen builders run before.
What hidden treasures have you uncovered?

Re PumpkinbugBloody hell!
I started to read you post with a sense of impending dread!
I had a flat in Bruntsfield Place (just where Morningside starts, near Holy Cross) and we had a cupboard which we used for the same reason; dump all our crap in it and forget about it.
Except, that "crap" was nearer the mark and the plague of flies would have been a real delight to find hidden away in our empty flat. Oh, and someone had stolen the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh sign (2ft by 8ft long) and we "found it" and took it home. We left that too.
Talk about your pigeons coming home to roost...
edit; we didnt actually shit in the cupboard. no, it was several months worth of full, feotid, blue council bin bags that we couldnt be bothered to take out for collection!
