    I can't find the thread by a Mr Bad Example, who posted a photo of a human bone which he claimed he'd dug up under his patio when landscaping the garden....only he didn't say it was human and thought it was probably cow or something like that.
    Cue many concerned people telling him to go to the police and him prevaricating....

    It looks like the original thread has been removed :|
    Yes I can understand that, but thanks for finding the what remains of the remains! >:)

    I can happily say I contributed (nothing useful) to most of these threads. Nice list and I wish you well in your new home - hope you got someone else to add the numbers.

    It was a a teaching aid if I remember clearly, which I rarely do. The thread Bad Accountant unearthed gives something of the flavour, but basically respondents were sure it was a murder that had been covered up.
