To want to know what's in the bag!?

Next door neighbour has taken in a lodger. The lodger is from one of the very.... well known families in the town. Every one of them was the most badly behaved lad in their school year in high school and has continued in that vein into adulthood.

To be fair, apart from the swearing in the garden, which we can ignore because the kids are past the age of playing in the garden and we don't sit in the area next to where they sit... and the odd midnight karaoke session when the house owner is away... they have been no trouble.

For the last few days, on the top of the porch roof, directly under the lodger's window there's been a supermarket carrier bag. I'm intensely curious as to what's in it and why it's been put out of the window onto the porch.
It's still there. AIBU to wonder what's in the bag? What could it be?

Declaimer ( I have never ever in my whole life shot out my next doors neighbours bloody bright security light with a air rifle)

None of us know what's in the bag. If you are that curious, tell your neighbour about it and they can have a look.

Is your neighbour mad having one of the local knobs as a lodger?

As s student, DD1 used to pop her scant pint of milk or half drunk bottle of pinot grigio on the deep windowsill of her room in halls in Malet St. Only in winter, of course. Things vanished from the communal fridges and often she CBA to walk down the corridor!

Now and then I see her successors still do the same. Happy days.

Granola?

You’ve got to find out what it is now you’ve posted on a massive public forum about it!

Why not get a little drone with a camera and take a video?

Yep. My money is on weed. If he has a collection of different ones, it actually does smell abit. Bet he doesnt want the neighbour getting suspicious.

Have you considered taking up a hobby? Joining a book club? A holiday?

DrMadelineMaxwell · 18/01/2020 11:55

I'm not thinking fridge items as it's actually not been that cold here this week. And it's currently been in full sun all morning.

He’s a serial killer and is keeping body parts as souvenirs...

Still there....
The porch is a bit too low for the bag to be easily reached from the bedroom window and is not attached by string etc, so it's not something easily retrieved.

Genuinely thought this was going to be about “The Baby Club”

DrMadelineMaxwell · 18/01/2020 18:00

My dc are teen and adult now so I don't know what the baby club is.
