AIBU to assume a Mumsnetter just left our holiday accommodation?

Second full day of our Centre Parcs holiday, just pulled back the bedroom curtains and noticed a tube of lubricating gel tucked in next to the frame.

I'm assuming this is a secret MN message and if so hello! I won't be partaking of any bum sex this time but thanks for thinking of me.

This led me to wonder, what's the weirdest thing you've found when arriving at a hotel, rental etc?

A tupperware-type box in the room fridge, full of what I thought was soup

It was vomit

The link to anal was because there was a thread ages ago about how a man thought that going to centre Parcs was a euphemism for bum fun and got very excited only to be disappointed. The link between the 2 has remained an endless MN source of.amusement.

Thank you [MaisyPops] - I'm fairly new here so that link had escaped me :-)

Possibly, Betty, if it was in Wales, and they were about size 20, give or take Blush

A man wanking.
I was 16 and it was a summer job in a posh local hotel and he was a (very) minor sports personality.

Went away with husband's family to a child friendly resort (not butlins) to find our bedroom curtains had been used to wipe someone's arse

Anotherdayanotherdollar · 29/08/2018 23:20

Oh I really hope that they're papergirls knickers!

I found a pack of photos, all taken in the hotel room and the beach down the road, of a rather beautiful woman in a range of pretty underwear and bikinis, they were professional quality photos.

A Walgreens shopping bag filled with 2 different shades of hair, it looked like a mix of head hair and pubes 🤢
It had a bottle of hair dye and plastic gloves on top and we found a dead mouse squashed under a lamp.

We were transferred to a different room which had bloody hand smears all over the inside of the bathroom door.

We found another hotel.

We stayed at a fancy hotel the night of our wedding, paid for by our groomsmen and bridesmaids (cost quite a few bob).

They had booked out the honeymoon suite. The following morning my husband went to pull out the chair at the dressing table and there was a used lacey thong on the chair. He jokingly threw them at me and said pick up your panties, not knowing they weren't mine!

After being grossed out for a few minutes I did forgive him for thinking I would have ever fit into a size 8 thong, but disgusted the cleaners hadn't got rid prior to us checking in!

Tighnabruaich · 30/08/2018 13:12

But why do you need to wash your knickers in the kettle? Why can't you just fill the basin in the bathroom with hot soapy water and wash them in there???

Newyearnewbrain · 30/08/2018 13:32

Not a holiday one but we just moved into our new house and found a kiln, a fucking kiln in our outside storage. I kid you not.

BlooperReel · 30/08/2018 13:39

Checked into a cheap B&B in Nottingham on an emergency trip, only a single room left...there were Star Wars duvet covers and curtains. Hmm

In my previous role I helped organise a huge office move, so a little off theme, however when we were packing up and clearing out, we discovered three pairs of women's knickers in the plant room, shoved between some pipes.

Not very exciting, but once found half a dozen mobile phones of various vintages in a drawer in a hotel in the US.

staceycleo · 30/08/2018 15:49

A used vibrator in a suitcase in the attic when we moved in to our house and a vintage wedding dress with four hideous bridesmaids dresses

MissConductUS · 30/08/2018 16:02

with four hideous bridesmaids dresses

It's a bit unfair to assume that all four of the bridesmaids were hideous, innit?

What's wrong with a kiln? My DS has one for throwing pots Confused
Do you mean a still? Or something else? Confused

A man on the bed, having a cigarette, who then tried to run away

MissConductUS · 30/08/2018 16:33

who then tried to run away

I hate it when they try to escape!

Greatorb · 30/08/2018 17:15

Bought a used car, and promptly took it to a mechanic friend for a check over. On pulling back various bits of trim to check for rust, a fair sized package of weed was found!

Dillydallyer · 30/08/2018 17:33

After DH’s grandad went into a home, the grandkids used to use the house for weekends away (with his permission as he didn’t yet want to sell the house.) Once found SIL’s boyfriend’s skid marked boxers under the bed and trimmed pubes in it!

Carriecakes80 · 30/08/2018 17:45

San Francisco, motel, blood on the wall, carpet and bedding, and broken glass all over the bathroom! Got back in the car and buggered orf! lol

chickenanbeanz · 30/08/2018 17:53

Not a holiday room find, but recently bought a cheap used car seemingly immaculate but found a small pocket in one of the seats full of small press seal bags probably used to store Charlie or similar. This then reminded me that some years ago we sold a car at auction unintentionally with about 100 condoms (unused and provided by family planning clinic) hidden in a compartment in the floor.

Littleladybird14 · 30/08/2018 17:53

Not personally but I used to work in a hotel where I remember a fishnet type crochless onesie was found in the honeymoon suite and on another occasion someone had taken a shit in the kettle Shock........
