I found '70s crisp packets along with all sorts of other rubbish from the era
when I dug up the rockery at the bottom of the garden.
I also had to extract a washing machine from elsewhere in the back garden...who the fuck buries a washing machine???

People have been brainwashed by Calgon that washing machines are living beings

Money launderers hiding evidence?
Fallout shelter salesmen preying on gullible moles?
Murderers worrying that there's just enough evidence left after washing the clothes they wore that it would be safer to hide the machine just in case?
Housewives desperate for a new machine and willing to bury the old one and claim it had been stolen?
Maybe it was for ritual purposes?*

It's just a machine to you, but they wanted to give it a decent burial.

That's how far removed from nature you modern city folk are
How do you expect them to grow another crop of top loaders if they don't plant a washing machine tree? In my day none of us went to the store for them

Back in the day in some parts of the country
You had to pay for the disposal of old white goods such as washing machines and fridges either at the dump or to have somebody lift it, so some people who had gardens just buried them. Others would dump them in the countryside (indeed some still do!)
