What Do You Have at Home that Others Think is Abnormal? ?

My husband ? wouldn't change him though

monk where is he on the scale?

Now that would be telling!!!

Way way off.

I have about ( maybe more ) paintings that I have painted at classes , all framed , in the bottom of various cupboards and a few on the walls behind my chair , in a dark hall
My family can’t think why I keep doing them when I won’t sell them !
I don’t think they are good enough , but love doing them !
I can’t bear to bin them either !

We, well, he’s DH’s really, have an imaginary weasel who lives in the shed.
He’s called Eric, and he’s been there for getting on 20 years.
DH and Eric don’t get on.

The heat on.

A plastic wrestler about the size of a 7 year old.

At the last count, 52 jigsaw puzzles. I keep them in the loft, and every time my husband goes up there he swears they are breeding.

Oh, if we're going imaginary - we have an imaginary maid who pops in and does strange things that aren't usually useful. We don't see her and certainly never pay her.

A third bedroom full of garden tools. We downsized and now don't have a shed.

Our golf clothes in their own wardrobe.

Lots of shiny new conkers scattered around the house, which I picked up in the park yesterday, in the hope that they really do keep spiders away.

I have a spider named Charlie!

I have a spider named Charlie!

Ah, that’s nice! Is he wild or tame?
Keep him away from those chestnuts!

Off topic, when I worked in Primary we had African snails and stick insects as class pets (not my idea, but my responsibility -this was something of a long running theme)
I used to have to take them on holiday with me.

Me!

Some of these things sound quite normal!

Must have a clear out.

A trayful of seashells - DH would pick them up from every beach we visited

Two large framed pictures of The Beatles (one of which I am in the picture). Four thimbles with The Beatles on. A set of coasters which are Beatles album covers. I am a Beatle nut.

Mostly relating to DH's obsessions
Lots of Lego
Hundreds (possibly thousands!) of books
Rocks (mostly from his archeology digs)

Two framed pictures of Herdwick sheep from the Lake district. One is a crossstitch that I worked. I love those beautiful creatures.

Two mega-hefty wooden hippos, weighing in at 40 kg each, that live under the Hippo Tree (huge Swiss Cheese plant) in the bay window. They’re called Hip and Hop (found by dh while on a business trip to Zimbabwe).

Plus of course Spike O’Saurus, aka the prehistoric tortoise in the garden.

A photograph of my great great, great, great, grandmother. She is an old lady on it.

Goodness, Yammy, do you know when she was born?
