As most people know we have jusst moved house and today my sister and husband caame to see the house, staggering under the bulk of a huge box, containing our housewarming present.

They explained that as people who have down sized and are getting rid of stuff rather than acquiring it, they did not want to start adding to our possessions again

Greatly intrigued DH and I took the wrapping off the box - and there it was a whole big box of 'Mind the crap' toilet paper, 48 rolls. Enough to see us through the foreseeable future.

My response was what a brilliant idea, we are really truly grateful for it. Something useful, unexpected and amusing.

Anyone else had strange but useful housewarming presents?
