Someone sent me a PM once telling me they were writing a book about poo.
If this is true and the police were called, they probably wet themselves laughing.Everything that is supposed to be in heaven is already here on earth.

A few weeks after we had our extension built there was a really foul smell in the garage. It turned out that the builder(s)? had been using my watering can as a urinal and left their parting gift for us to find!
Didn't call the police (or anyone else for that matter) we just disposed of it and bought a new watering can!
For some reason this is not uncommon.0 -

To clean a hole under the floorboards? In most old houses under the floorboards is full of years of debris.
It would take them all of 1 minute.
Any smell would go very quickly- poo doesn't smell long term.
Maybe when the crime scene officers arrive to investigate they will remove all remaining samples?June challenge £100 a day £3161.63 plus £350 vouchers plus £108.37 food/shopping saving
