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?

cat the ripper and otherMy cat, though fantastic, is pure evil. Walking into my bathroom one morning, I saw a what I thought was a pile of feathers. Oh good, says I, cat's killed something again. Joy. Then I noticed a lump under a towel. I lifted it.
And underneath found a perfectly skinned bird.
On closer inspection of the 'pile' of feathers, the realisation that the cat had expertly skinned, in one whole piece, a live bird and set the two aside, placing one part under a towel, is a worrying one. Especially as he has no opposable thumbs.
About the same time, I found a new mouse head in my room for six days running.
I think the cat had some kind of psychotic break. He's alright now.
