Right a tad bored, want to no what you guys have found which isnt the usual thing you find?
Mine was today casually doing a set of 255/35r19 tyres on an 61 plate audi, the customer was talking to me about a tapping noise when the wheels turns on the offside front and low and behold I found a set of house keys in the tyre! How does someone get some keys in the trye when I was the first person to fit tyres to the vehicle except the factory

A few years ago now there was this bloke at work who bought himself a brand new vectra (no idea why either). He was a bit of a dick so as a joke we filled one of his wheel trims with limestone pebbles from the carpark. 
The monday after he came in saying there was something wrong with it and he daren't drive it because it sounded major so we left it with him and he took it back to Bristol st motors saying they had sold him a dodgy car.
Im sure the mechanics found that quite strange when he found them too!

The dturbo has half a eaten slice of pizza down the rear bench... Looks tastey! Think it's pepperoni!

Dad got a really random puncture like that except it was a spoon. It had gone in, hit the rim, bent and punctured a second time as it doubled back on itself. Very strange.
I found a hash pipe in a rover I was stripping, buried behind the sub build.

I found a brand new 205/45/17 tyre just lying in the middle of the road. I picked it up naturally. And when I was wee my cousins and I were out playing and found all this jewellery buried in some weeds. Someone had broke into an old ladies house an stole all her stuff, were war medals and everything. Handed it in and again didn't get a thank you

Found a balaclava, titanium diamond tip drill bits and shotgun shells hidden in the spare tyre hole in the boot of a 206 gti.
Safe robbing kit basicly.
In one of my 405s I found loads of fly fishing lures, peanuts and used condoms

Under floorboards in various houses I've worked in I've found. Newspaper from the 1930's, money, phones, a dead cat and gun.
