Cupboard of mystery
About four years back I rented a flat in Edinburgh's Morningside (full of blue rinses, money and weirdos) with a couple of mates. On exploring the flat there was a cupboard in the hall which no-one had checked out prior to moving in, having been told it was a storage cupboard.

On opening it we discovered a binbag full of stuffed toys, a hedge trimmer (there was no garden to speak of) a large stone head and a temporary bus stop (thankfully it didn't attract any busses). We asked the letting agent what the deal was as we felt entitled to the space these were occupying and were informed that it must have been left by the previous tenants.

We did the decent thing and tried to contact said tenants but to no avail so the booty was ours. We couldn't move the head, took the hedge trimmer to Cash Converters (and felt like right jakies) and used the bus stop for drunken late night japes on the road outside till we got bored and left it there. The toys went to my neice who loved them and still has them so if you were the owner get in touch!

(Post the first, about as disappointing as losing my virginity)
