Apart from dust bunnies, Christmas cards (yes it has been a long time since I vacuumed under the sofa) and playmobil items?

Your child?

Queenbee77 · 28/06/2021 19:07

Grin😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂plant it! You will have enough potatoes for a meal.

I'm slightly disappointed by the potato given some of the suggestions

I've found several dead pigeons, a magpie and a live pigeon under mine before now.

FloralBonnet · 28/06/2021 19:12

I'm terribly sorry for such a disappointing reveal, would it help matters if I explained that the potato was in the hand of invisible Cthulu?

Let’s keep a sense of balance. Sometimes these threads end in a grand climax - sometimes it’s small potatoes.

Our weirdest thing was a live hedgehog. Dog brought it in to play with and forgot about it

@FloralBonnet

OMG what happened???!!!!! 15 pages???!!!

It was a small, sprouting potato.

OMG, I have a bagful of those on the vegetable rack, I've just peeled a couple for my dinner, what a letdown!
NowWhatUsernameShallIHave · 28/06/2021 20:25

How disappointing OP!

I suggest you not vacuum for another few years and come back with something more juicy!

picl · 28/06/2021 20:25

please tell me you found Terence, our house spider. She went missing last October and hasn't been seen since. Mind you - she was a bit of a flirt and didn't show any loyalty to the household that gave her refuge

I'm hoping it's my cars missing service book

A couple of years ago ( in the August of 2019) I was looking for my car's logbook (I was selling)

Found the logbook and the Christmas Good Foood magazine .
Happy Day Xmas Grin

@AfterSchoolWorry

The Tour de France spectator who caused the crash yesterday? 🤣🤣
I wonder what happened to her. What a nasty thing to happen, I hope she's ashamed.
TitsInAbsentia · 28/06/2021 20:44

She was holding the potato but she legged it...

The cat, he hides there when I do the hovering

SingleMamaG · 28/06/2021 21:05

A gun rack

Bloody hell I would be scared too if I saw you hovering! Did it come naturally or did you have to go on a supernatural course?

DD looked under our bed for a missing sock (she's very untidy) and reported a dead rat there. And it was. Yuk!

londonrach · 28/06/2021 21:22

The spare socks
