You'll never guess what I just found

[blacksax]

At the back of a cupboard in our spare room that DH uses for his hobby. Would anyone like to guess what it is?

I'm not quite sure what to do now.

Ooh nice reminder that I've still got some Christmas chocolate to scoff watching Traitors tonight😋😃 Terry's mint choc 'orange' (dreadfully thin and flimsy compared to original ones) AND some Matchmakers. 😃

The Christmas tree

If that is the case for all men the cupboard might need to be visible from space...

A little kitty 😺

I spent 12 months telling my DS that the box on top of the shelves in the spare room was empty and contained no chocolates. In the end I got it down to show him and it was a full box of Celebrations.

I frequently find chocolate stashes because I’m not a massive fan and if I buy it for myself it’s usually nice dark chocolate. I do have to hide it otherwise it would disappear in a couple of days.

Since Christmas I’ve found a couple of family Christmas cards I forgot I’d bought and a travel clothes steamer I bought for DS to take back to uni. There’s probably more lurking in various cupboards.

Did something similar a few years ago. Bought and stashed (in various places) a number of the round tubs of chocs. Found 2 in the top of the hall coat/cupboard when moving the February after. A few years before that, I found 8 bags of mini choc bars in the back of a clothes drawer!! Found them just before Easter! 😂

I was hoping for a Narnia type land (no Ice Queen tho).

We did once have a dim-witted cat who trapped herself in that very cupboard. She'd crept inside a collapsible play tent at the bottom and couldn't find her way out of it again. It took us a good few hours to find her. Dopey article. 🐱

I thought the diemma was going to be that you had screamed at your husband for stealing them, but completely forgot that you had hidden them yourself.

Sorry. Posted comment in wrong thread. Because I'm an idiot.

The inevitable condoms. Do I win?

Dopey article! I've never seen that written down - where are you from @blacksax ?

JESUS!

A Fleshlight?

🤣

That happened to me years ago!

Turkish Delight? So there was a Narnian connection!

How is OP alive if she found this?

I grew up in Essex and Hertfordshire, in a variety of new towns which shall remain nameless to spare their blushes. London ancestors.

I could equally have said "daft ha'porth".

Both. Check the use by date first, though. Chocolate can do some very odd things as it ages.
I think I preferred the Ark of the Covenant, tbh.
As it happened I found £60 in 20s the other week. Tried one in the pub and it was no longer legal tender. Need to go to the bank. I think I'd have preferred it to be chocolate money.

She might not be an ordinary, unpurified person. She plays a special saxophone for a start!

@Grammarnut Fear not, I have just tested a couple of the chocolate coins (in the interests of science, obviously), and they are fine.

Clearly both!

Again, this is why we need the laugh emoji back MNHQ!

Lucky you! I was looking in my wardrobe for a chocolate orange I thought I'd saved from Christmas and then remembered I'd given it to my daughter. Eat the lot and enjoy.
