weesidney Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 This one didn't happen to myself but to a plumber who was working in a house my parents had bought and were having some renovation work done. The plumber needed under the floor so he lifted the hatch in the hall and shone his torch done only to see a pair of wellies with overalls legs inside them, the guy went chalk white and nearly fainted, turns out the previous owner (DIY type person) had decided to play a joke upon leaving the house and had laid the overalls and boots out to look like a body, what a sicko. wee sid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KateC Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 Yep, I've found various 'interesting' items in airing cupboards and even under floorboards. Various naughty magazines and videos, certain 'toys', photos of wives, photos of other ladies that didn't live at the house (oops) and tons of naughty underwear / stockings etc. Might have even 'borrowed' a few items in the past! Hehe! I love some of the stuff you guys have found - it never ceases to amaze me what people hide in their houses! Sheesh! Kate C x Oh, and caught an apprentice that I was working with having a browse through a lady's top drawer once too! Tut tut!

Guest old-hand Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 Was on a job with a m8 doing some rewiring and the painter got the wife`s knickers on his head and ran around the room with them. She walked in.............................. Never laughed so much in my life, think that saved her sacking him! Same job a week later and i knocked over the bedside drawer lifting a board, heard the husband shout leave it he`ll clear it up too late it was full of their "toys" More laughter. Worst, when as a locksmith assisting Police and social services ( few yrs back now) over a 14 year period I assisted in finding 24 bodies.

jptaylor Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013   Me and my apprentice found £20k cash in a loft in Eaton Terrace back in the late 90's, we were running the bell cable down to the soffit board. The house was unoccupied so I informed the estate agents who we got the keys from................ I wonder what happened to the cash. It was all in £20 notes in black bags similar to what PCBs were stored in.  Some years later - Three of us were installing at the residence belonging to the CEO of a national house builder, a vase was knocked over and several bags of white powder fell out.  I went to burn some footage in Chelsea, the house had a comms room in the garage, I couldn't find the light switch and was conscious that I was the walking on something metallic and slippery ,when I found the switch I discovered a box of 9mm live rounds had spilt across the floor.  Usual other stuff over the years as written by others in this thread, sex toys, underwear in differing states!

frenchman Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 A few years back I was showing the trainee where I wanted him to run the cable in the customer's bedroom. On a chest of drawers was a TV with a camcorder plugged into it, about ten minutes later he came running down the stairs asking me to come and take a look at what he found. He pressed play on the recorder and we had half an hour of adult entertainment from Mrs and Mr XXX who were very open minded and enjoyed " trying out new things"....
