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?

Those aren't bandages!I was about 12 years old when myself and a friend found a big stash of 'medical stuff' (they looked like bandages and stuff to us) which had been dumped (probably nicked and then dumped) on some waste ground.
We thought we'd found a really useful haul, so we transported the whole lot back to my house (I was lucky, my Raleigh Grifter had a luggage thingy on the back)
It wasn't until we got them home that my sister (10 years older than me) pointed out that those aren't really medical things (well... not how we saw them anyway) and that in fact 'Tampax' made stuff for women.
We still didn't know exactly what they were for, but nevertheless we lugged the whole lot back to the waste ground and dumped it...
Absolutely no apologies for lenght, girth, quantity or indeed frequency.
