I break into your house and steal something from the top of your fridge - what do I take away with me?

If you broken into mine, you'd get a red plastic box filled with napkins, a jug and a pot with pens in!

A fly swatter, a spaghetti drying rack and some long life milk plus a random assortment of metal screws. All useful I guess.

RiftGibbon · 22/10/2020 09:09

Stale crumbs probably. Mine is an under-counter one.

A collection of small plastic bags in a container

Random tupperware

Shmithecat2 · 22/10/2020 09:12

I've two houses at the moment.

House 1 - a cat and a Tefal Air Fryer
House 2 - a Boston fern.

I'd be quite sad about the cat and the fern, but you can have the fryer.

Dog food and boxing gloves 🥊

MummytoCSJH · 22/10/2020 09:19

On top - a slush puppie machine, an old spare drainer and a tupperware of cat food that my cats loved one week, then refused to touch the next.
Inside - a full wine rack of alcohol that I've accumulated over the past few years. Most of it I will never drink, but don't touch my Baileys...

Ninkanink · 22/10/2020 09:19

Oh, I have a flat as well!

Let me think, what’s on top of the fridge...?

Nothing at all (unless my daughters have stashed something there by now!)

BiddyPop · 22/10/2020 09:20

My plastic sheet for rolling out and measuring pastry, and a tube of gorilla glue that fell out of the cupboard over the fridge and I never retrieved....

Now if you asked about the top of that cupboard....a tray, 2 large bags of flour, 1 large bag each of icing and castor sugar, a very large bag of good chocolate chips (hidden from DD's baking!), 1 packet of crisps (hidden from DH) and a bag of coffee beans to grind.

MummytoCSJH · 22/10/2020 09:20

@FreezerBird why do you have dead snakes on your fridge Grin

MrsMariaReynolds · 22/10/2020 09:20

A pile of dust and grease (Integrated fridge with no top)

AriesTheRam · 22/10/2020 09:20

Dust

BoudiccasBoudoir · 22/10/2020 09:20

It's integrated. So probably the fruit bowl or the toaster

HalfBloodPrincess · 22/10/2020 09:21

The arts and crafts box - what time are you getting here?

Sexnotgender · 22/10/2020 09:21

The worktop. Please don’t take it, it’s really useful 😂

rainbowstardrops · 22/10/2020 09:27

Two spider catchers!

Nothing

Manzana · 22/10/2020 09:49

A pre digital radio and a bowl of eggs

dotty12345 · 22/10/2020 09:53

A silver candelabra (which makes me sound much posher than I am!) my umbrella and my sunglasses.

needanewidea · 22/10/2020 09:55

Empty lighters (for lighting the hob), a fire blanket, various things I've confiscated off the DC over the years and forgotten about (should probably have a look sometime) and loads of random stuff.

MrsGulDukat · 22/10/2020 10:05

A grey step stool and some spotlight bulbs.
