    I had a nose around ours when we first moved in. One of the previous occupants must have been a TV engineer, founds loads of old boxes of valves and a couple of Murphy TV metal signs. Also found an original Austin Healy Sprite owners manual.
    Found a couple of 1950's porn mags when renewing the loft insulation a year or so after moving in....11-12 years ago.

    How big were the muffs?

    Didn’t need to get the loft insulated, the muffs had their own rookwool.

    Read yesterday that someone found Paul McCartneys genuine original first Hofner Violin bass in their loft. Went "missing" 51 years ago and worth conservatively about £10 million. I hope he gave them a bloody good drink after they returned it to him.

    A burglar stole it and sold it to his pub landlord who kept it.
    The landlord died and bequeathed it to family.
