Hidden Treasure
My 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?

treasure in the bushes
When I was eight I was visiting my cousin in Brighton when it was decided that we (myself, my parents, sister, uncle, aunt, cousins and grandmother) should all visit the park for one of those family picnic type things.
Quickly bored by the measly couple of swings and a see-saw, me and my cousin decided to go exploring in the somewhat vast bushes surrounding the park.
Inside we found not one, but two rather lovely used novelty condoms. Not knowing what these things were or their purpose, we decided the best thing to do with them was to offer them to my grandmother who was idley sitting with the rest of the family doing what grannies do (knitting and complaining about the economy)
Needless to say, and much to our dissapointment, she was not best pleased by our gift of two manmilk filled jonnies and abruptly told us to chuck the bloody things back where we got 'em.
She never did tell us what they were for, no matter how much we asked. Old ladies eh?
My first post - Hurrah!
