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!

Cake tins ... many, many cake tins.

A plant pot. That’s it really. :)

Scissors, one of those long clicky candle lighter thingies (probably plus lots of dust)

Just had a look! A salad spinner, empty tubs of ice cream, used this year for blackberry picking and a screw driver.

Tubs in bin, screw driver back in DIY box but salad spinner remains.

Dust. Nothing on top of mine.

Basilikum plants, an old mechanical coffee grinder and empty bakery paper bags we use for lining the bio bin.

The instruction manuals for everything (fridge, oven, dishwasher, boiler, bbq, microwave, washing machine, thermostat, burglar alarm, gas fire). It’s a mess and we really need to organise them properly, I think we have manuals for appliances we don’t even have anymore!

Christmas crackers left over from last year and a hamper full of tuperware 🎄

Dust. Lots and lots of dust. Blush
Me too, that's all there is up there

I read that as top SHELF of your fridge, and was momentarily confused as to why people were refrigerating napkins and loo roll!

You'd get an iron from us, and yes, dust.

A not very exciting torch 🔦

Annoying noisy toys that we've hidden from the kids

A couple of empty coffee jars, some zoflora that I bought after everyone raved about it but hate, dishwasher salt and rinse aid, and some gardening stuff.

FiveGoMadInDorset · 21/10/2020 21:42

out of date cereal

My George Forman grill!

You can choose between the popcorn maker, the iron, the wanky basket dh makes sour dough in or the fire blanket.

Massive tubs of whey protein powder.

A stoneware jug with matching goblets and a packet of paper napkins.

Nesquick powders, a huge tub of galaxy hot choc (put up there to stop the 4 year old making herself drinks and spilling the powders everywhere.) Oh and some water balloons that i bought in the summer and didn’t get round to using

Parkandride · 21/10/2020 21:43

A storage basket full of dog toys
Occasionally a giant multipack of coke cans
