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?

One more...
My sister bought a house in Croydon recently (I really hate that town) anyway, it turns out that the previous owner (some old mad geezer) had died in there...
It was a bit of a fixer-upper place and they were working on the bathroom. The side panel of the bath fell off to reveal several large pouches of white powder carefully stashed away...
My sister, in her honesty took it all to the police...
The really gauling thing is that they keep getting letters from foreign banks saying, 'Dear Mr Deadguy, we've got a fat load of your cash... what do you want us to do with it?'
And before anyone says anything, I've checked... If they so much as reply to those letters they could be up for all sorts of criminal proceedings... Meh...
