M'landlady
I am the lodger in a house shared with my eccentric landlady.
She collects things:
Fridges: There are 3 fridges in the kitchen.
Filing cabinets: There are 5, also in the kitchen.
Limescale: Every few weeks, she empties the washing machine fluff filter, collects and saves the limescale.
Milk bottle tops: There are hundreds of these.
Toothbrushes: Hundreds, maybe thousands of toothbrushes all over the house. Some old, some new.
Bicycles: She has 4 bicycles. A couple work.
Dead things: There are several dead moths in test tubes inside the fridge. There is also a dead kestrel in a bag in the freezer.
There is a dead snake on top of one of the filing cabinets.
Oh, there might be a dead starling somewhere too, unless it escaped.
One night I got home to find a seagull wandering about on the ground floor. There was a big (seagull shit covered) note with "BEWARE -SEAGULL" written on it.
The next morning, I heard loads of banging and crashing above my room. The seagull had learnt to do stairs. Pretty much everything in the house was shat on and upturned.
Eventually m'landlady returned and let it back into the wild.
She's very odd, but really lovely too. -Incredibly kind and great company! And she puts up with my odd ways too.
