What they leave behind...

Every Saturday, when Sue and I visit the cottages to do the "turn around", we gingerly open the front door in trepidation at what we might find... generally our visitors are very clean and tidy, and all we have to do is change beds, and generally dust and vacuum. There's sometimes a grill pan or oven to scrub.

But it's the things that get down the sides of the settee or under a bed which cause us some amusement. Ladies seem to lose underwear quite often (but not the men...hmmm...) and there's often pens, a few coins, or a pair of slippers.

A couple of weeks ago, we posted on a rather nice pair of walking boots. This week we have ten balls of Aran wool and one knitting needle to post to the visitor who we guess is planning to knit a sweater, but has arrived home rather short of the necessary raw materials and equipment.

So, what have you left behind after a stay in a cottage, B&B or hotel?
