What have people left at your door? And have you ever discovered who it's from?

[Carla]

OK, I'll start.

Buzie Lizzies.

ahem, parameters

God, I forgot the rat .. but then I know our dog left it, so that doesn't count.

A bag with potatoes in, hung from the door handle.

I;m going to retire now because people are still posting all the lovely surprises that have been spontaneously left by their front doors despite my bitter and twisted efforts to hijack thsi thread...

Nothing
They would have to make it through two electronically controlled security gates to get to my door. And there are no such Milk tray type folk in East end of London.

Even my parcels never get near.

Don't know about lovely, I always thought there was something strangely sinister about a bag of potatoes with no calling card.

No the potatoes are well weird, hope you didn't eat them.

I used to date a farmer and every time he would pick me up he bought some fruit or veg for my mummy.
She still hated him.

I was a young un' and then moved away from the farmer to the big smoke.

I can assure you there was no uprooting of the farmer - who was quite uninterestingly allergic to celery. i think he is tending to his tomatoes as we speak.

dillydally .... I bet there are. That's the sort of place they're meant to wheedle out.

Now there is a thread...farmers I have known potentially quite exclusive..
Mile end and Milk Tray are mutually exclusive

lol, dillydally. I've started on - go on, you know you want to contribute!

Started one, even.

DH found a used condom in our porch one morning
we still don't know if they were at it in the porch under the bedrooms windows where we were sleeping!!!

a snowman!!! ANd it wasn't our kids!!

Oh, dillydally, I live in Mile End. And we often find things on the doorstep ... but generally it's stuff being returned from other people's houses.

some unpotted bedding plants a few hours after I'd been weeding the front garden

hahah! have solved the mystery! it wa sa nighbour who went on holidy that morning!

LadyCodofCodford are you Cod ?

Cod: It took you over a month to find out?
Did she have a long holiday?

I got home once to find a carrier bag with a box of (not very nice) chocolates and a bottle of (ditto) wine. Took me a month to find out who from.

Have also received a bag of plums and a bag of beans.

Was recently falsely accused of leaving a bag of apples for someone else.

just kept fr getting to ask her!
